---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Marc Lehmann <[email protected]> Date: 2010/11/3 Subject: urxvt 9.09 preview/release candidate To: [email protected] Hi! This is a release candidate (or a preview, or certainly something close to the 9.09 release): rxvt-unicode-9.09.tar.bz2 The rxvt-unicode team would be happy if people tried it out. The changelog is extensive, the most notable changes are the addition of a gdk-pixbuf backend that replaces the libafterimage backend, and a 256 color mode, with all the problems this brings. The full Changes list so far is: - it was verified that urxvt handles µ and μ correctly. - cleanup and minor fixes of the image code (Emanuele Giaquinta). - add support for blending and blurring with XRender (Emanuele Giaquinta). - add support for using gdk-pixbuf as image backend (Emanuele Giaquinta). - new perl extension "confirm-paste" (Emanuele Giaquinta). - new on_tt_paste perl hook and tt_paste perl binding (Emanuele Giaquinta). - new on_bell perl hook (Emanuele Giaquinta). - searchable-scrollback no longer ignores the first line (Emanuele Giaquinta). - properly set VSTATUS in termios for *BSD (reported by Ed Schouten). - fix utmpx detection on upcoming FreeBSD 9. - Use COMPOUND_TEXT encoding for WM_NAME/WM_ICON_NAME value when it is not fully convertible to STRING (patch by James Cloos). - fix a buffer overflow that would cause wrong key sequences to be generated for numpad keys (introduced in 9.05). - fix definition of sgr0 to work around limitations in luit. - extend ISO 14755 5.4 mode to also print the font name of the characters other than first one in the selected cell (Emanuele Giaquinta). - new iso14755 option to disable ISO 14755 at runtime (Emanuele Giaquinta). - make sure pagewise scrolling scrolls at least one line (found by Mikachu). - remove deprecated OSC 18 / 19 and make OSC 17 / 19 apply to highlightColor / highlightTextColor (Emanuele Giaquinta). - add highlightTextColor resource to change the foreground colour of highlighted characters (Emanuele Giaquinta). - make highlightColor apply also to selected cells with reverse video but not to non selected cells with reverse video (Emanuele Giaquinta). - remove colorRV resource (it was enabled only with frills off). - fix numlock handling, the most longstanding bug to date (Emanuele Giaquinta). - reduce the number of custom bits to 4, to make room for 256 colours. - add support for 256 colors (Emanuele Giaquinta, Marc Lehmann). - add rxvt-unicode-256color terminfo and use it by default in 256 colors mode. - update rxvt-unicode terminfo to state 7744 colour pairs to cover all 88*88 possible pairs. - actually added macosx-clipboard-native, which should have been in the 9.07 release but had been forgotten. - fix hang if DECAWM is not set and there are not enough columns to insert a character (Emanuele Giaquinta). - cub1 ("backspace") will now respect wrapping when past the rightmost column, working around a shortcoming of most tty line discipline's line editing. - add support for grabbing the clipboard selection and extend selection{_clear,_grab,} perl bindings to optionally work on the clipboard selection (based on patch by Dana Jansens). - no longer force CERASE to BACKSPACE - use the system default. affects default value for VERASE only when no compatible setting for backspacekey was given. - use higher than 38400 baudrate setting, if detected. - erase screen would clear to the wrong background when blinking was enabled (which selects high intensity under some circumstances). - scr_kill_char didn't touch the line. - upgrade and port to libev-4.0. - enabled solaris event ports and kqueue backends (if available). -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -----==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ----==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ ____ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / [email protected] -=====/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ _______________________________________________ rxvt-unicode mailing list [email protected] http://lists.schmorp.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rxvt-unicode -- Facundo Andrés Bianco (Vando.)
