or changed rxvt behaviour to make it more compatible to xterm (usually
xfree86's xterm).
-TODO: hotkey font resizing
-TODO: +ssc -ssr seems to scroll at wrong time, scrolling up the empty sec. scr.
-TODO: multibyte support for setwmname et al.
-TODO: tabbed windows
-TODO: there are other todo items, but they are not in this file.
-TODO: OnTheSpot editing.
-TODO: searchable backlog
-TODO: meta-tagging of data by regex (my dream project)
-TODO: triple-click == select full output line
-TODO: double-click: more intelligent (urls etc.)
+TODO: read property sequence is broken with respect to utf-8 etc.
+WISH: just for fun, do shade and tint with XRender.

+
+ - try very hard not to exhaust the kernel tty buffers, even
+ if it slows down large pastes and is only cosmetic.
+ - streamline atom and xft color allocation to reduce startup
+ time (12.8s -> 7.8s on my dsl). Still, doing it with only 2-3
+ turnarounds would be much faster, but impossible to implement(?).
+ - implement underlineColor resource when ENABLE_FRILLS.
+ - iom left it's signal pipe handle open in the child
+ process. Fortunately not security-relevant as the pipe data gets
+ ignored.
+ - do not use XSETROOTPMAP_ID anymore, support ESETROOT_PMAP_ID
+ instead.
+ - fix a crash in rxvtd when the last window was being closed
+ (reported by hednod).
+ - fix an unlikely memory leak.
+ - fix atom name enumeration.
+
+4.5 Mon Dec 13 07:47:16 CET 2004
+ - fix an extremely nasty bug in utf8-conversion. upgrade is advised.
+ - completely re-wrote selection pasting. This should fix garbled
+ incomplete characters at 32k boundaries and too-short INCR
+ selections, and more. Increases memory requirements considerably
+ for large selections, but that seems unavoidable.
+
+4.4 Sun Dec 12 22:10:06 CET 2004
+ - rewrote handling of default-char width.
+ - implement _NET_WM_NAME et al., and also use UTF8_STRING
+ for the xterm property esc. sequence. Allows i18n window
+ titles etc.
+ - SMART_WINDOW_TITLE removed, pls. complain if you need this.
+ - added GBK encoding (formidable patch by WU Fengguang).
+ - fixed a bug in the transparency code.
+ - upgraded iom.[Ch].
+ - force slower (but more responsive) transparency update.
+ - fix off-by-one bug with wide characters at the end of a line,
+ which got partially overwritten by spaces.
+ - as xlib is completely broken with respect to utf-8 handling
+ and nobody is going to fix it, that part has been re-implemented.
+ should fix most paste problems between apps that use UTF8 encoding
+ and rxvt running in a lesser-supported locale (thanks to Robin Redeker
+ for writing utf8towcs). Only enabled with ENABLE_FRILLS.
+ - darwin compile fix by Ethan Blanton.
+ - fix the colour of the underline, which was rather random before.
4.3 Sat Dec 4 04:58:37 CET 2004
- unapply the "emulated graphical chars. respect wcwidth" patch.
now, too.
4.2 Wed Dec 1 03:30:22 CET 2004
- - make emulated graphical characters respect wcwidth
- (forgot who reported this).
+ - make emulated graphical characters respect wcwidth (Kuang-che Wu).
- remove debugging code that caused major slowdowns
on high-latency networks.
- wide characters shift the correct number of characters
