- INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many configure options are now on by default.
- If you want the old behaviour, try:
- configure --disable-everything <your enable options>
- - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: -fade changed it's meaning to comply with
- the documentation and common sense: when upgrading, replace your
- percentage by 100-percentage.
- - integrated "fade to specific colour" patch by Martin Parm.
- - slow down the internal visual bell (delay by 20ms) and update
- the terminfo flash code to use the same delay. This is
- synchronous, so many bells might inhibit screen updates in other
- windows.
- - text with background==foreground colour gets displayed with default
- bg/fg now when in reverse video, so it can be seen when selecting.
- - allow koi8r* as x11 encoding name for koi8r (Nikita Danilov).
- - removed undocumented inheritPixmapforce option.
- - replaced INSTALL file.

5.7 Wed Jul 13 04:46:33 CEST 2005
- implement some useful (hopefully) options for rxvtd.
- - separate and improved rxvtc(1) and rxvtd(1) manpages.
- - fix a bug that caused segfaults on startup on systems that do
- not support local unix connections, e.g cygwin. (btw, I didn't
- even know about the -rootless and -multiwindow Cygwin/X modes).
- - large amounts of text without control sequences or newlines
- could almost freeze output. This has been fixed by adding extra
- refreshes in these cases (also a problem in oriignal rxvt).

5.6 Sun Jun 26 22:11:13 CEST 2005
- - R_SB_RXVT bitset value was 0, so rxvt scrollbar was initialised
- every time resulting in display errors (original rxvt also affected).
- Reported by Jasmin Buchert.
- - font names are now considered to be utf-8 encoded (xft apperently
- uses this convention. X Core fonts might not, but it should be rare).
- Affects display in iso14755 box.
- - rewrote the low-level xft drawing function ("xft backend" for the
- hipper parts of the world) to hopefully cope better with proportional
- chars mixed with fixed-width ones.
- - rxvt is now much more careful (read: slower) with potentially
- overlapping xft characters. It usually overshoots and redraws
- more than required, but that's better than undershooting and
- cutting pieces off of characters.
- - rxvt is now more restrictive in what font heights it accepts for
- fonts that will likely overshoot or undershoot lines.
- - fix a cosmetic problem with the unfocused cursor on a wide character
- at the end of the line (reported by Mikachu).
- - wide characters not fitting into the end of the line will be
- output in the next line (reported by Mikachu).
- - added doc/solaris9.patch by Ewgenij Starostin.

- - added doc/embed-tk, an embedding example in Perl/Tk,
- and doc/rxvt-tabbed, a primitive tabbed shell implemented

- - fix assertion failure ("crash") on mousewheel-scrolling
- when the terminal height is small, by removing the assert.

- and sourceforge bug #954654, which is not neccessary.
- - change terminfo file to not clobber G1 when using
- line-drawing characters, as this seems to mess
- with EUC-JP (it will clobber G0, but G0 practically
- needs to be US-ASCII all the time).
- - toggle default application keypad/cursor mode to help

- - remove default key sequence for unknown keys again, as this
- can be achieved by customizing the keyboard now.

- - fix signed/unsigned bugs on wc<->mb conversions.
- - reset slipwheel scrolling speed when reaching the top or bottom
- (Mikael Magnusson).
- - for core fonts, use ascent + descent when a font is loaded,
- and PIXEL_SIZE when not. when loading a font, iterate until a
- font has been found that _really_ fits the height (reported and
- tested by Olivier Wittenberg).
- - set IUTF8 input flag, when defined (linux-2.6.5+).
- - only define _XOPEN_SOURCE on solaris.
- - autogenerate src/* dependency list.
- - fixed linespace option, which ought to work now (and is dependent
- on frills, not on it's own configure option).
- - include pty.h, if available (cygwin).
- - removed W11 directory from dist, it wasn't used anyway.

- - send the input method spot position on every refresh, not just

- - moved FAQ to rxvt(7), also made a copy into README.FAQ.
- - fix a bug(?) in the XIM destroy callback.

- - fixed some --disable switches that didn't work.
- - tweaked src/features.h a bit.
- - removed README.unicode.
- - support select&paste of tab characters.
- - fixed a segfault when trying to load nonexistant fonts (reported
- by Eduard Bloch and Mikael Magnusson).
- - fixed a long-standing rxvt bug in which rxvt failed to save
- and restore the correct cursor position on the secondary screen.
- - reworked rxvt-unicode terminfo to allow more efficient and less flickering
- screen updates with curses.
- - wide characters that are being halfway overwritten are now replaced
- by spaces.
- - urxvtc now transmits urxvt as default name, not urxvtc anymore
- (likewise for other names chosen at configure time).
- - disabled the automatic font lookup for unknown characters. xft
- is just too slow for this to work.
- - changed realbold code, implemented _real_ bold and italic support,
- where _real_ means the symbiosis of what I want with what I can
- implement. use --enable-styles.
- - removed 256 color mode, but enable 88 colours in all modes
- (88 to be compatible with 88 colour xterm which is widely
- supported, and most programs assume a non-iso colourtable
- for terminals with "odd" number of colours).
- - added doc/etc/rxvt-unicode.terminfo which is a big overhaul

- - better default font size and style.
- - rxvt-unicode is now much more picky about fonts not fitting

- single character against the base font extents and will only
- use the characters fitting into the bounding box (+ some fudge).

- - SECURITY FIX: rxvtd kept open filehandles to other terminal
- windows when spawning children. Actual risk is low (attacker
- needs access to a local shell window).
- - implemented parts 5.1 and 5.2 of ISO 14755 (i.e. hold down
- Ctrl+Shift and enter hex numbers. space commits it as a unicode
- character, or press and release Crl+Shift and then enter a
- function key to get it's picture). patches for 5.3 (or 5.4 with
- a little window or so) would be welcome.
- - fixed large pastes (INCR selections, debian bug #191456).
- - fixed longstanding bug in which rxvtd crashed when
- a message was logged after startup (a rare case).
- - got rid of yodl completely by converting to pod.
- - integrated the FAQ into the manpage. In the future, more will be
- added there.
- - reference documentation is now installed as rxvt(7).
- - rxvt(7) now contains README.configure, which is autogenerated.

- - rxvt-unicode will now try to find a matching xft font if it can't
- find a matching font from the fallback list. It might look ugly,
- but if a xft font with our character exists, rxvt will find it.
- - moved FreeMono to the very back of the fallback list, as some
- people complain it looks ugly. This is a no-win situation, though.
- - fixed sourceforge bug 998970, reported against aterm:
- "crash on -sl 0 on super small windows".
- - decreased memory and code size when !--enable-transparency.
- - SYNCCVS. backported changes done to rxvt, except for Color_ufbg,
- which I think is better done through fading, and libW11, which
- needs testing anyways.
- - more complete compile options help output.
- - Provide linear scaled colour cubes for 256 colour mode.

- provide gamma (from per visual intensity lists) rather than
- providing constant gamma ourselves. Noticed by and ideas from
- Christopher Casey <realchriscasey@hotmail.com>

+ - wcwidth is unreliable in non-unicode-locales on GNU/Linux.
+ working around this fixes line-drawing characters in non-utf-8 mode.
+ - improved rounding when emulating line-drawing characters.
+ - implement continuation lines in xresource parsing when
+ --disable-xgetdefault.
+ - changed locale-setting esc-sequence from code 9 to code 701.
+ also added 702 that returns the font selected for a specific
+ unicode character.
+ - no longer set XA_CUT_BUFFER0. this is confusing and clients WILL
+ get it wrong.
+ - don't use XTextStyle for XA_TEXT, instead use XStdICCTextStyle.
2.1 Wed Mar 3 21:48:39 CET 2004
- NOTE: the name of the binary and ressources were changed in
- this version, see README.configure if you want the old
- settings.
- - added plain "big5" encoding into CN.
- - make cns11643 and big5* encodings actually visible to rxvt.
- - fix a bug when a multibyte character fell onto a buffer boundary,
- causing the incomplete character to be presented twice to
- mbrtowc.
- - more robust encoding name matching.
- - fix cursor placement on multibyte characters.
- - when overwriting wide with narrow chars, pad with spaces.
- - fix various refresh and display issues for wide chars.
- - remove multibyte_cursor hack (it was a hack) and associated
- resources and docs.
- - fixed memory corruption bug with XLFD fontname parsing.

2.0 Sun Feb 29 23:59:58 CET 2004
- do not blink text when background colour is not set explicitly.
- - some doc cleanup
- - configure cleanup
- - viscii enabled by default
- - better support for non-g++-3.2+ systems (tested with g++-2.95).

1.91 Fri Feb 27 03:57:44 CET 2004
- build fixes for !xft and !im, reported by various people.
1.9 Wed Feb 25 16:46:05 CET 2004
- fixed bug in plain scrollbar causing X errors in XCreateGC.
- - implemented sharing of X connections. will be used to speed
- up many x operations considerably. Also saves some memory.
- - implemented caching of input methods. This immensely shortens
- startup time for new terms in rxvtd. At least XFree86 4.3 is
- rather broken with respect to input methods, though, so expect
- crashes when you kill your input method (xterm et al. also crash).
- - fix bugs in X flushing, causing an empty screen after startup.
- - fix various memleaks in rxvtd.
- - fix a bug that kept escape codes to be generated for some
- keysyms that also have string translations, when not --enable-xim.
- reported by joel reed.
- - re-enabled esc-seq. for font-switching (\033 ] 50 ; <fontset> \007).
- - re-enabled menubar (experimental!).
- - fix bug in locale-handling that kept the correct locale from
- being selected.
- - implemented esc-seq. to switch locales (\033 ] 9 ; <locale> \007).
- - removed greek support.
- - allow NUL bytes (ctrl-@) to be entered even with XIM enabled.
- - correct cursor width if !focus.
- - fixed --enable-xgetdefault, reported by eduard bloch.
- - added manpage for rxvtc/rxvtd based on the one eduard block
- contributed.
- - use reverse video for normal bold text unless colorBD has been set.
- - fixed endless loop when selection is valid but empty.
- - changed default terminal name to "rxvt".
- - many other minor bugfixes.

1.8 Mon Feb 2 20:09:18 CET 2004
- almost total conversion to C++. Except for introducing
- new bugs, this should not change much.
- - fix and re-enable background pixmap and inherit pixmap support.
- - re-enabled multiple scrollbar support.
- - added plain scrollbar style and restored xterm scrollbar.
- - blinking and selections work slightly better now.
- - fix an error condition when rxvt receives more than one screenful
- of output. should occur with original rxvt, too, but very rarely.
- (I guess the code contains more surprises of this sort...)

1.7 Fri Jan 30 16:50:11 CET 2004
- further cleanups.
- - never do last-minute-changes: restore ability to have
- color + bold as high-intensity, and let the selection
- use reverse video, not _blink_.
- - remove OPTION_HC, at least temporarily. If you want it back,
- please drop me a note.
