+ - new script: perl/selection-pastebin
+ - improved security of setuid/setgid operation, which is now
+ encouraged, by moving privileged operations into a separate
+ process and permanently dropping privileges within the
+ terminal. This makes it possible to remove security checks from
+ the perl code and gives a much safer feeling when urxvt needs to
+ run with special privileges.
+ - use the scrollback buffer even when the scroll region doesn't
+ span the whole screen, as long as it starts at row 0.
+ - swap the environment in some more cases. This hopefully fixes
+ some segfaults that might be caused by xft asking for env variables
+ at the wrong time.
+ - selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
+ - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
+ code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
+ :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.
+ - perl/selection, perl/selection-autotransform: regexes are now
+ being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
+ - perl-overlays and refresh hooks were not applied in correct order.
+ - changed coordinate-system of view_start/nsaved to be top to bottom.
+ - complete overhaul of the pty/utmp management stuff and configure
+ (Emanuele Giaquinta).
+ - removed src/strings.C and src/menubar.C. No menubar support
+ anymore.
+ - add tsl/fsl and related capabilities to the terminfo description,
+ to set the window title.
+ - removed all traces of SMOOTH_REFRESH.
+ - nuked QNX support.
