from ncurses 6.4
* improve check for unsupported formatting characters, e.g.,
zero-width space, to properly ignore them (report by Thomas Wolff).
* improve/document error-checking for some of the controls which
return responses: DECRQSS, XTGETXRES, XTSETTCAP, XTGETTCAP
(prompted by discussion with David Leadbeater).
* improve limit-checks for fallback font cache (report by Dimitrije
Erdeljan).
* improve check for too-wide glyph in fallback font by allowing xterm
to continue searching for a suitable font rather than just failing
on the first. Also add limitFontWidth to allow changing the amount
by which a glyph must extend outside the font's bounding box to
disallow it.
* Sat Dec 03 2022 dmueller@suse.com

(suggested by Bram Moolenaar).
* improve parsing and error-recovery in the case where a list of X11
bitmap fonts is given in the -fn and related options.

that operation (report by Nick Black).
* add fallback definition for PROJECTROOT so that a suitable default
location for luit will be compiled-in on build-servers.

* change screen-refresh call used for DECCARA and DECRARA to ensure
that trailing blanks which are part of the rectangle are repainted
(report/analysis by Dennis Filder).
* when resetting the terminal, ensure that the cursor shape also is
reset, e.g., if DECSCUSR has been used to modify the cursor shape
for an xterm which was started with the underlined cursor option
(report/analysis by Luis Javier Merino).

- update to Patch #367 - 2021/03/26
* add OSC 22 to allow programs to select different pointer cursor at
runtime.

characters (report/testcase by Tavis Ormandy).
(CVE-2021-27135 bsc#1182091)
* with alwaysHighlight true, xterm does not properly track focus. The
screen->select FOCUS flag remains always on, which prevents
bellIsUrgent from working, as the urgent WM_HINT flag is only set
in setXUrgency() when the window is not focused. Fix this by
updating screen->select in unselectwindow() regardless of the value
of always_highlight (patch by Jiri Bohac).

- Updated to Patch #365 - 2021/02/03
* amend fix for “word” selection in patch #364 to limit that to
the insert-selectable action, which reads data from the screen. This
restores the interactive behavior where double-clicking on a
“word” would make subsequent selection extensions by words as
well as suppressing some boundary-checks (report by David Wolfskill,
FreeBSD #253225).
- Updated to Patch #364 - 2021/02/02

it to a space (report by Thomas Wolff).
* modify state transitions for selecting character sets to eliminate
an ambiguity between the “A” used in VT220 versus VT320.

ASCII when no suitable encoding is found, e.g., attempting to use
an NRCS sequence when NRCS is not enabled.
* turn off hyphenation in “.txt” conversion, prompted by groff changes.
* add VT5xx ISO Latin-2 (prompted by discussion with Thomas Wolff).
* amend change from patch #361 to event-handling in CopyWait to handle
active-icon as a special case (Debian #975687).

(suggested by Harald Dunkel).
* fix swapped height/width in regisScreenSize and maxGraphicSize resources
using "auto" value, from patch #314 (report by Anton Lavrentiev)
* revise patch #362 change for shift-modifier versus mouse protocol
and select/paste by adding resource shiftEscape, which can be enabled
via a control sequence (prompted by discussion with Matthijs van Duin).
* simplify/improve ifdef in trace code for using a separate set of files
for each run of xterm.
* add options -r and -t to vttests/query-color.pl to show the 6-digit
RGB code and actual colors.

modified-keys table where no keycode was available.
- includes Patch #361 - 2020/10/14
* treat the return value of strerror as readonly (patch by Philipp
Klaus Krause).

paste to limit that feature to mouse-buttons which are actually
bound to select/paste actions (prompted by discussion with "Ergus").

the scrollback area.
* use separate GCs for showWrapMarks feature, to work around cursor
coloring change in patch #345 (report by Paulo Silva de Alíbano).
- includes Patch #360 - 2020/09/20

- Add Recommends: xorg-x11-fonts-legacy, since the default font
is now available in that package. If the font is not available
it will fall back to use a font installed in xorg-x11-fonts
and it can also use truetype fonts, thus the Recommends instead
of a Requires (related to boo#1169444)
* Fri Jun 05 2020 callumjfarmer13@gmail.com
- Fixes for %_libexecdir changing to /usr/libexec
* Thu Mar 26 2020 meissner@suse.com
- Patch #353 - 2020/02/01
- amend change in patch #352 for button-events to fix a case where some followup events were not processed soon enough (report/patch by Jimmy Aguilar Mena).
- handle MappingNotify X event, to improve recovery when switching keyboard configurations using xkbcomp (prompted by discussion with Frank Mosch, Debian #661295). There is more work needed here, possibly in the X libraries.
- improve discussion of mouse-mode in ctlseqs.ms (suggested by Igor van den Hoven).
- further improve checks for Xft max-advance-width to take into account fonts which use two cells for ambiguous width characters. Also improve the time used for these checks (reports by Yuri Pankov, Frank Mosch).
- fix a few spelling errors reported by codespell (report by Jens Schleusener).
- modify run-tic.sh to prefer development version of ncurses since changes to terminfo file in patch #345 rely upon bug-fixes in ncurses (prompted by discussion with Will Senn).
- Patch #352 - 2020/01/16
- adjust fontsize data to handle a minor inconsistency from recent Xft versions (Debian #880407, adapted from patch by Vincent Lefevre).
- add a table to the manual page description of forceBoxChars to alert the reader to the special characters aside from “line-drawing” which are drawn directly when this resource is set (Debian #931305).
- improve checkXft logic which attempts to detect fonts whose max-advance-width is inconsistent with the actual glyph widths. For some fonts, it is necessary to check additional characters (report/analysis by Jan Engelhardt).
- improve configure-checks for X headers and libraries on recent MacOS, which has moved those files under /usr/X11.
- improve portability of iconify/deiconify feature by taking into account some window managers which manipulate the EWMH _NET_WM_STATE property, adding/removing _NET_WM_STATE_HIDDEN rather than actually minimizing the window (prompted by discussion with Jörg Breitbart).
- improve workaround from patch #287 for the -iconic option when configured with toolbar by postponing the extra request for minimizing the window to the end of menu-initialization.
- modify xevents special-case for mouse-events to include button-events so that the meta key by itself can generate button-events (report/analysis by Mattias Engdegård).
- amend SGR-stack change from patch #348 to not associate bold attribute with background color (report by Nicholas Marriott).
- fix copy/paste error in manual page (patch by Larry Hynes).
- add definitions in xterm_io.h so that GNU/Hurd will use posix_openpty (patch by Samuel Thibault).
- build-fix in debug-tracing, for esctest.
- updated autoconf macros
- update config.guess
- Patch #351 - 2019/11/17
- correct logic in property_to_string for deciding when to fallback from UTF-8 decoding to ISO-8859-1 decoding, broken in xterm #350 (FreeBSD #241961).
- add -report-icons to help-message.
- improved autoconf macros:
- CF_ADD_LIBS: the change to filter out duplicates caused this to append rather than prepend. revise to fix that.
- CF_GCC_VERSION and CF_GCC_WARNINGS: move checks to distinguish icc/clang from gcc from the macro which handles the --enable-warnings option, to make this work without-warnings for the inline-checks.
- update config.guess, config.sub
- correct status in XTGETXRES replies when the resource was not found.
- fix some gcc, cppcheck, clang and coverity warnings.
- guard call to RequestResize from the struct-notify event handler to prevent recursion in the Xft+buffered workaround in some cases when doing manual resizing rather than resizing via escape sequences (reports by Stefan Assman, Mike Thornburg).
- amend the workaround for Xft+buffered blanking by moving the switch to bitmap-fonts to account for differences in font metrics between bitmap- and TrueType-fonts (report by Stefan Assmann).
- improve the note on the xterm-rep terminfo entry (prompted by discussion with Sven Joachim).
- Patch #350 - 2019/11/02
- modify html/svg dump to not ignore zero'd/blank cells.
- align terminfo file with ncurses, e.g., add xterm+osc104 block.
- improve discussion of modifyOtherKeys in manual page and in ctlseqs.ms.
- add vttests/modify-keys.pl script to illustrate the modifyOtherKeys resource (prompted by discussion with Bram Moolenaar).
- various improvements to ctlseqs.ms, as part of autogenerating links for the website.
- update manual page default for saveLines resource default value (Branden Robinson, Debian #913815).
- add command-line option -report-xres to show the values of the VT100 widget X resources when initialization is complete.
- add a control sequence which, like tcap-query, allows an application to inspect most X resource settings of the VT100 widget.
- adjust some optional features to enable them in the imake configuration as they would be by default via the configure script.
- add null-pointer checks to improve error recovery when bitmap fonts are missing or corrupt (report by Jonne Ransijn).
- correct the condition for deleting the EWMH window-title property, i.e., if UTF-8 titles are disabled, rather than if an update to the EWHM property found no change (report by Sven Joachim).
- build-fix for the case when configure --enable-trace is used without --enable-warnings (report by Sven Joachim).
- fix a few minor bugs found with Coverity.
- add a check in property_to_string to avoid translating UTF8_STRING or COMPOUND_TEXT into Latin-1 when UTF-8 encoding is active, e.g., when pushing onto the title-stack while switching to the alternate screen.
- build-fix for the --disable-doublechars configure option (report by Brian Lindholm).
- Patch #349 - 2019/09/22
- add graphic context to support bold+italics (patch by Quinn Strahl).
- document window properties in the manual page.
- improve title-string feature:
- if any of allowC1Printable, utf8Title or titleModes hint that an application might send a title-string encoded in UTF-8, check if that is the case, and if it is recodable into ISO-8859-1, use that for the ICCCM-style title.
- check if the title given by a control sequence happens to be already encoded in UTF-8, to avoid double-encoding (FreeBSD #240393).
- Make sameName resource work for the EWMH titles.
- Modify menu-state of utf8Title to be consistent with the utf8 source, i.e., setting the EWMH properties automatically when UTF-8 is active.
- reorganize text-drawing to make it possible to investigate using Xft to implement VT100-style double-sized characters. While doing this, made a workaround for apparent Xft bug which loses its drawable state when switching from 132 to 80 columns.
- improve font-warning messages by showing which are derived rather than directly from resource settings (suggested by Tomas Korbar). Also filter repeated font-warning messages, to accommodate broken X configurations.
- fix an inconsistency between failure to load derived wide font versus failure to load derived wide-bold font (Redhat #1679790). That relies upon the “:unscaled” property which is broken in some distributions (however, recent Debian and the BSDs such as MacOS work).
- updated autoconf-252 to check X11R7 include/lib directories found on some older configurations.
- set a graphic-context for border when double-buffering is active; to prevent the border color from changing when switching to reverse-video.
- build-fix for --disable-ziconbeep, which conflicted with the new double-buffer configuration (report by Brian Lindholm).
- fix loop-limit for lookup of fullscreen resource broken in xterm #347 (report by Scott Bertilson).

- fix a misformatted printf in report-sgr.pl.
- add configure check for termios types, to improve compiler-warnings.
- ensure that when resetting margins, to also reset DECLRMM. This affects DECCOLM, DECALN (although DEC STD 070 mentions only top/bottom margins), and DECSTR.
- corrected order of reset/move when setting DECCOLM, and make it more consistent by always resetting margins, rather than only when the mode is changed (report by James Holderness).
- compile-in double-buffer support by default, changing the configure option to set the default resource value for buffered to true or false.
- take in account the reverse-video state when computing the filler-color used when clearing the screen in double-buffering configuration.
- correct logic for filtering scrollbar-updates when buffered resource is compiled-in but not enabled (report by Paul Lampert).
- improve state saved/restored for cursor-save and SGR stack features.
- improve description of 1006 and 1005 mouse modes, to avoid implying that they use character-parameters (report by Bryan Christ).
- explain in ctlseqs.ms that some of the numeric keypad keys were xterm extensions rather than VT100/VT220 terminal features (prompted by discussion with Thomas Wolff).
- explain in ctlseqs.ms how the DEC windowing extension is supported by xterm.
- add 28 rectangular editing to the primary response (suggested by Thomas Wolff).
- fix a typo, improve wording in ctlseqs.ms (Thomas Wolff).
- fix internal column-parameter when SL or SR is used with left/right margins (patch by Thomas Wolff).

- modify saveCellData to handle case where double-width character is partially copied; that should be blanked (report/testcase by Thomas Wolff).
- add resource buffered to allow enabling/disabling double-buffered mode.
- two fixes for the double-buffer configuration, prompted by MacPorts' switch to double-buffering (patch by Mike Thornburg, MacPorts #58313):
- ensure that the needSwap flag is set after drawing TrueType text
- corrected the drawable-parameter used for the bar-cursor
- modify ScrnRefresh to ignore a case where the left/right halves of a double-width character have been set to different video attributes. The attribute to use is in the left-half (report/testcase by Thomas Wolff).
- correct a limit-check for DECCRA in case the target lies off-screen (report/testcase by Thomas Wolff).
- documentation errata (report by Thomas Wolff).
- reset flags including wraparound and reverse-wrap when switching to VT52 mode, while noting that DEC's standard documentation leaves that behavior undefined (report by Thomas Wolff).

- improve responsiveness to X events while processing HTML or SVG dumps (report by Martin Hostettler).
- replace logic in wcwidth.c for detecting double-width characters with binary-search table generated using updated uniset (report by Robert Ross).
- add test-driver for wcwidth.c to simplify comparison with system's wcwidth.
- ensure that window-manager name comparisons work when active-icon is enabled, since CSI13t uses the window-manager name (report by Glenn Golden, Arch #62818).
- trim a stray “experimental” in one of the comments about the tcap-query feature, which has been a supported feature since 2008 (see patch #238).
- Patch #346 - 2019/05/27

* http://vt100.net/docs/vt320-uu/appendixe.html
+ add entries for the DEC Supplemental Graphics table to display
0x28/0xa8 as ¤ and 0x5d/0xdd as Ÿ.
referring to
* http://www.vt100.net/charsets/technical.html
* alter the Unicode values used for 0x2b through 0x2c to use
curly braces to work with the “middle” parts displayed with
0x2f and 0x30.
+ modify the VT220 “Supplemental” table, giving a hint that it
was probably meant to be “Supplemental Graphics” and is the
same as VT320's table.
* quiet a few font-warnings when a derived fontname cannot be
opened, overlooked in refactoring of font resources in patch #328
* correct error response for DECRQSS broken in cleanup of
Coverity reports in patch #288
* improve DECRPM responses by returning mode not recognized for
modes which may not be settable due to the selected
decTerminalID resource
* correct logic for print-immediate action, and enable
corresponding menu entry
* add configure option --with-pcre2
* fix a misspelled subsection title in ctlseqs.ms and add a note
regarding blink which was rendered as bold in X11R6. Blinking
text was implemented in Patch #60.
* fix typos in xterm.man
* fix typography in xterm.man
* fix typo in INSTALL
* add xterm-direct terminal description based on changes
introduced in patch #277, and relying upon ncurses RGB extension.
* modify xterm-new terminal description to use ECMA-48 REP,
reflecting its use in xterm since patch #32 (1996).
* clarify comment in ctlseqs.ms regarding blink: it has been
part of xterm since patch #60 (1998).
* update ftp URLs in documentation.
* Fri Nov 10 2017 sndirsch@suse.com
- xterm-settings.patch
* define also wideBoldFont to get rid of a warning (bsc#1067530)
* Thu Aug 10 2017 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #330 - 2017/06/20
* updates for ReGIS (Ross Combs):
+ remove redundant text command error check which broke
T(B) and T(E).
+ retain the loading alphabet number across multiple “L”
commands.
+ add S(T) delay handler.
+ fix some color handling error messages.
+ add stubbed-out macrograph handling.
+ use fragment_remaining() and fragment_consumed() instead
of manually checking position / length in various places.
+ rename some local variables in string / extent / option
parsing
+ wrap some long lines.
+ move macrograph command handling out of the top-level.
* add a summary of the italic fonts loaded to -report-fonts
option.
* modify the font-lookup for italics to allow for “-i-” if no
match is found with slant “-o-” (prompted by patch by Ben
Wong).
* change default values for mkSamplePass and mkSampleSize to
reflect generally-improved locale support in various
operating systems (FreeBSD #219800).
* modify wcwidth.c to return -1 for non-Unicode values, and
adjust a couple of blocks to better match assumptions about
ambiguous-width characters in other implementations. Also
modify wcwidth.c to support configurable soft-hyphen, so
there is no drawback to using this version rather than a
system wcwidth.
* amend change made in patch #328 for cursor-visibility to
handle case where an application is updating the
reverse-video state (FreeBSD #219800).
* update tables of combining and ambiguous-width characters in
wcwidth.c based on Unicode 10.0.0.
* build-fix for --enable-sixel-graphics without
- -enable-regis-graphics (reports by Sven Joachim, FreeBSD
[#219945]).
- Patch #329 - 2017/06/12
* add control sequences for reading the Sixel and ReGIS
graphics sizes (suggested by Ben Wong).
* add a workaround for wcwidth returning -1 for characters
which should have been printable (FreeBSD #219800).
* fix a bug in font initialization from patch #328 (FreeBSD
[#219800]).
* fix a special case in HideCursor which assigned a bold font
to the slot used for normal font in changes for italics in
patch #307 (Debian #858304).
* updates for ReGIS (Ross Combs):
+ Strings specified with no command are used as "comments".
Print these in the log when tracing.
+ Catch attempts to use "alternate display" mode (AKA
"blink") from the GIGI, but do not implement it.
+ The T(M) command should only multiply the height by 10,
not 20.
+ Make the S(E) command reset more state than just the
screen contents.
+ Remove two rotation variables which were only being
printed.
+ Numerous minor fixes and comment updates in the R
command.
+ Unknown R command option names trigger an empty response.
+ Fix the output position after printing rotated text (it
was missing the the sign before).
+ Fix the position change with pixelvectors and rotated
text (the rotation transform was not being applied).
+ Update the TODO list and remove a verification FIXME
(slanted text positioning is correct as is).
+ Emulate the approximately 1.4x enlargement for text which
isn't rotated at right angles.
+ Only update the color planes specified in the plane mask
(the W command's F option).
* fix a bug introduced by the changes to font information in
patch #328. When processing the "checkfont" option of the
locale resource, the program referred to the request data, to
an array which was only allocated in the new/result widget
(report by H Merijn Brand).
* fix a missing assignment initialization to make the utf8
resource control whether escape sequences to enable/disable
UTF-8 mode are allowed.
- Patch #328 - 2017/06/01
* revise parser for charClass resource, making these
improvements:
+ accept octal and hexadecimal values
+ allow embedded whitespace
+ allow the class after colon to be optional, e.g., to
clear class settings for a range of characters.
* add command-line option -report-charclass.
* fix most lintian warnings about test-package
* add eraseSavedLines resource.
* document DECSED 3 in ctlseqs.ms (report by Ben Longmans).
* improve integration between configure-events and updates for
reported screensize, in particular when switching between
vt100 and tek4014 modes.
* modify selection-highlighting of reverse-video text to keep
that distinct, e.g., by reversing the selection foreground
and background colors as one would expect. This fixes a
"useless" case in the description of highlightColorMode.
* improve fix for Debian #759734, addressing a case where
non-colored cursor would be invisible against reverse-video
(see patch #311).
* updates for ReGIS (Ross Combs):
+ the "H" option of the "T" command should multiply by 10,
not 20.
+ display unknown glyphs as a solid block.
+ given a succession of text-direction options, use the
last.
+ fix the direction of ReGIS slanted text so that negative
values produce oblique output .
+ fix the ReGIS text direction option to only rotate
characters when no following size option is used.
* update terminfo to better match corresponding entries in
ncurses, e.g., u8 pattern to match the VT220, VT420, etc.,
primary responses, as well as adding smxx and rmxx.
* fixes from Jörg Sommer:
+ corrected a trace-message regarding maximum
graphics-size; it used the similar ReGIS maximum size
which might not be configured.
+ in do_select_regex, clear selection if there is no match.
If the regex does not match anything around the cursor,
the selection returned must be empty, otherwise the whole
line is treated as a match. This way the command defined
by exec-selectable will not be executed if there is no
match.
+ modify limit in do_select_regex to include the character
at the cursor in the match, making it easier to type
something and then hit the key to trigger
exec-selectable.
+ If exec-selectable or insert-selection is triggered by a
mouse button click, the position of the mouse pointer
should be used. This makes it easier to address any
position on the window and it makes it possible to use
the mouse, e.g., for applications such as mutt where you
cannot move the cursor.
* modify DECRC to save/restore xterm's last-column flag used to
control wrapping behavior rather than manipulating DECAWM
(report/analysis by Mattias Engdegård).
* add configure option --enable-terminfo-env to use the value
set by --with-own-terminfo for the $TERMINFO environment
variable. That variable was set automatically for HPUX, but
would be useful in other systems, e.g., for Solaris (request
by Jeff Wieland).
* fix a race condition when setting up a signal handler to
timeout if opening /dev/tty hangs (patch by Tobias
Stoeckmann).
* review/cleanup resources which were not in the manual page
(report by Maxwell Anselm):
+ add manual page description as needed.
+ drop resource name for menuBar, as unnecessary.
+ modify fallback numeric value for regisScreenSize
resource to match that for maxGraphicSize.
* updated configure macros CF_ADD_CFLAGS, CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS,
CF_GNU_SOURCE, CF_MATH_LIB, and CF_XOPEN_SOURCE from other
program-changes.
* update config.guess, config.sub
* change “maximum screensize” assumed by resize to 9999x9999,
to accommodate people using the Unreadable font.
* drop Utility from default value of --with-desktop-category
(Debian #780176).
* widen the configure script pattern used for finding related
".desktop" files, including “Terminal”
* several minor improvements to font utility functions:
+ provide for later modification to implement font-sets by
parsing the font resources as comma-separated lists.
+ parse -fn and -fa similarly, using “x:” and “xft:”
prefixes for font name/family strings to distinguish
between XLFD and Xft font specifications.
+ use loops to iterate over font classes
+ use getters/setters for font data to allow for on-demand
lookups.
+ make the debugging trace for missing glyph less verbose
since that interferes with the -report-fonts option.
+ refactor xtermLoadFont to make it clearer how some fonts
are derived from others, e.g., bold, wide.
+ make the triggering and suppressing of font-warnings more
consistent by storing the last state in the widget.
+ reduce font-warnings by checking for repeated warnings.
* add vttests/query-status.pl
* add vttests/closest-rgb
* add special case for displaying soft-hyphen if it happens to
fall at the right margin, and omitting similar case such as
the BIDI markers, where a zero-width character is neither a
control character nor a combining character (Debian #844325).
* modify logic for OSC 52, manipulate selection data, to update
the selection-time to include the latest X events. This fixes
some cases where the selection was invalid, e.g., after an
event due to focus-follows-mouse (report/testcase by Stephane
Chauveau).
* revise macro CastMallocN as new macro TextAlloc to make
explicit use of sizeof(char) (prompted by patch by Cade
Foster).
* add “Mouse Ops” menu entry and related resources to allow
runtime disabling/enabling of the mouse protocol escape
sequences (discussion with Bob Proulx).
* improve discussion of mouse actions versus protocol in the
manual (discussion with Bob Proulx).
* improve discussion of environment variables in the manual,
pointing out where some features (such as termcap and the
System5 COLUMNS and LINES variables) are used rarely, mainly
to support legacy applications.
* add examples of translations resource for select/paste, and
for font-size changes to the manual.
* minor reordering of some entries in ctlseqs.ms for
consistency (report by Arran Ubels).
* add -s option to 256colors2.pl and 88colors2.pl, to
demonstrate modifying the “system” colors 0–15.
* omit XFT_SPACING property from call to XftPatternBuild, to
work around a bug in fontconfig for handling Google Go fonts,
whose names sort in an order not expected by fontconfig,
causing the request for a monospaced font to return italics,
e.g.,
$ fc-match 'Go Mono:spacing=monospace'
Go-Mono-Italic.ttf: "Go Mono" "Italic"
(report by Giacomo Boffi on Stackoverflow).
* modify minstall.in to improve a workaround added to the
manual page in patch #182 to avoid having the C preprocessor
used in the imake configuration strip out the comments in the
character classes section (reports by Ted Unangst, Anthony J
Bentley).

input events fail (prompted by patch by Pierre Pronchery).
* review #ifdef statements, listed those which do not have a
configure option in xtermcfg.hin.
* fixed one case where the menu sensistivity for Print-All
Immediately and Print-All on Error was not properly ifdef'd.

keep-clipboard.
* add optional feature to capture text copied to clipboard at
the time of copying rather than at the time the clipboard
contents are requested for pasting (patch by Milan Mehner).
* improve a special case where the -e option was used to pass a

G2/G3 selections when it does not implement them.
+ add check for maximum operating level before deciding
whether to send a DECSCL to set it to VT100-level.
+ adjust starting point of items for menu #9 "Test of known
bugs" to avoid overwriting part of the description of the

incorrectly state that "DCH has no effect outside the
scrolling margins."
* fix regression in DCH introduced in adjustment for
limit-check in patch #315 (report/testcase by Zoltán Kéri,
also reported by Christian Weisgerber).
* correct default value for configure option
- -enable-initial-erase; it should be "False", but in patch
[#315] it was "Maybe", which differed from default set in patch
[#192].
- Patch #315 - 2015/03/02
* change default for --enable-narrowproto for Cygwin to "no" to

incomplete termcap string (prompted by coverity report).
* improve paste64 feature (report by Olaf Rogalsky)
+ fix “p;” command in paste64.pl example.
+ modify _OwnSelection to allow the paste64 control to cause
primary/clipboard selections to be disowned and cleared.
+ omit an extra "=" used in padding, to make the base64
response a multiple of four characters.
+ modify _ConvertSelectionHelper to not stop converting on
embedded nulls in the primary or clipboard selection. That
makes the behavior consistent with cut-buffers. Nulls are
not passed on to the application because they are used for
separators in the X library calls that convert
XTextProperty values.
* add configure option --with-man2html to allow an alternative
to groff's man/html conversion.
* review and modify resource-settings which can be set via
control sequences, etc:
+ add OSC 6, to enable/disable colors set via OSC 5, without
changing the color assignments (prompted by patch by Ingo
Brückl).
+ add command-line option -itc for italics.
+ add colorIT and colorITMode for italics, like colorBD,
etc.
+ guard allowPasteControls against modification by editres.
* change passedPty from fixed-length to allocated to ensure
that it is long enough to hold the -S option value (report by
Ben Longbons).
* improve ReGIS graphics initialization (Ross Combs):
+ add a new string resource to set the default ReGIS font.
+ fix a caching problem where the font name wasn't taken into
consideration when looking up cached metrics.
+ enables use of fractional values in coordinates (which in
turn allows setting the coordinates to something like
[0,1][1,0])
+ doubles the minimum ReGIS graphic to 200x200
+ set the default ReGIS image size to "auto"
+ fix some swapped width/height parameters in TRACE messages
+ add support for scaling and mirrored coordinate systems to
the screen address command
+ sets a minimum ReGIS graphics size of 100x100 -- smaller
address ranges will be scaled up
+ reset the image if either the width or height is zero
(which should happen together or not at all, but switching
the logic gets rid of some parentheses)
+ adds support for alternate screen coordinates (just
offsets, not inverted coordinates or scaling)
+ keeps the graphics state across ReGIS calls unless P1 or P3
entry codes are used
+ changes loops to continue after parsing whitespace to allow
trailing whitespace
+ fixes some incorrect character casts
* Mon Jan 05 2015 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #313 - 2014/11/28
* add regisScreenSize resource setting to allow custom
screensizes for ReGIS graphics (prompted by discussion with
Scott Froebe).
* fix some minor issues in manpage (Jens Schweikhardt).
* improve ReGIS font-handling (Ross Combs):
+ remove "random junk" generation for unknown characters
+ add xterm extension to load user glyphs for alphabet 0
+ add xterm extension to specify loading an alphabet from a
font by name
+ fix bug with use of empty alphabet slots which caused slot
0 to be clobbered
+ update/clarify ReGIS-related comments
+ add DECprint extension for printing/clearing the screen
(only clearing is performed)
* improve ReGIS colorspec conversion (Ross Combs):
+ avoid some floating point math for colorspace conversion
+ move two copies of colorspec parsing to a single function
+ change colorspec parsing to handle components being out of
order or with spaces and commas between them
+ add support for an extension where RGB components can be
given instead of HLS
* improve use of const, e.g., for the LineData pointers (patch
by Ross Combs).
* clip of graphics that overlap the scrollback buffer and alt
screen (patch by Ross Combs).
* amend change to focus-change events in patch #287 to limit it
to suppressing the reset of the urgency-hint, because some
useful FocusOut events were lost (report by Joe Peterson).
* modify dpkg build-script to configure xterm-dev as an
x-terminal-emulator alternative.
* extend the --with-xterm-symlink feature to make symbolic
links for the other programs and scripts.
* minor fix to vttests/resize.pl to avoid undefined variable
when receiving broken/missing response, e.g., from mrxvt.
* change the way that ReGIS graphics are refreshed (patch by
Ross Combs):
+ it pre-composes any overlapping graphics to avoid
unnecessary and flickering draws
+ it adds a three-dimensional lookup table for RGB -> pixel
values and uses this across all graphics
+ it draws in line segments when there is a run of the same
color
+ in cases where there are no transparent parts, it uses an
XImage to draw
+ it hooks into the double-buffering support if it is
enabled (though this doesn't seem to get rid of all
flicker).
* This has the effect of reducing flicker and speeding up
redraws.
* Mon Jan 05 2015 dimstar@opensuse.org
- Add libX11-devel, libXft-devel and libXrender-devel
BuildRequires: the configure script silently disables XRENDERFONT
support if the dependencies are missing (boo#911683).
- Add an extra check after configure to ensure we do not lose this
support accidentally ever again.
* Fri Dec 19 2014 dimstar@opensuse.org
- Remove xorg-x11 and xorg-x11-devel BuildRequires: there is no
need, and it causes that xterm requires itself to build through
indirect requires (xdm, xinit).
- Own the directory %{xappdefs}.
* Tue Dec 16 2014 dimstar@opensuse.org
- Split the desktop launcher from the binaries: there are users
that want to clean up their desktop launchers and also remove
xterm launchers (but xterm is a deep dependency of xinit, used
for fallback situations). The package 'xterm' is the 'app
launcher', which depends on xterm-bin. Installing xterm does, as
it did in the past, pull a FULL package installation. But the
user will be free to remove xterm and only keep xterm-bin (once
the dependencies in xinit are corrected as well) (boo#906598).
* Fri Nov 14 2014 dimstar@opensuse.org
- No longer perform gpg validation; osc source_validator does it
implicit:
+ Drop gpg-offline BuildRequires.
+ No longer execute gpg_verify.
* Sun Oct 12 2014 badshah400@gmail.com
- Add xterm-desktop-item-in-gnome-utilities-appfolder.patch to
group xterm desktop item in the Utilities app-folder in the
GNOME shell.
* Mon Sep 29 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #312 - 2014/09/28
* undo change to do_select_regex() in patch #311
(reports by H Merijn Brand, Sven-Haegar Koch, Debian #762978).
* Thu Sep 25 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #311 - 2014/09/18
* mention xclip in manpage as an alternative workaround for
copying clipboard data, noting that selectToClipboard (from
patch #209) is the recommended approach (Debian #639094).
* correct comparison in do_select_regex() of working position
against starting column.
* correct initialization for regular-expression feature of
exec-selectable and insert-selectable actions (Debian
[#758633]).
* modify logic for exec-formatted and insert-formatted actions
to ensure that the formatting occurs just after the selection
is received (Debian #758633).
* account for state of reverse-video in special case of cursor
coloring (Debian #759734).
* fix a sign-extension problem in ReGIS support, as well as
correcting a case where ignored-characters were not really
ignored (patch by Ross Combs).
* Enable the "Escape Sequence" menu entry when an OSC 50 is
received. Also disable it if the escape sequence specifies no
font (Debian #760208).
* improve fix for the fontsel menu entry from patch #304:
because the recovery used the "current font", it would fail
if one first selected a valid font, then an invalid font
(Debian #760207).
* correct an off-by-one in limit-check for ScrnLimitChar
function (report by Egmont Koblinger).
* Wed Sep 17 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- remove unnecessary colour tweaks which cause strange artifacts
in the ReverseVideo mode (bnc#395154, bnc#865340)
* Tue Aug 12 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- fix SUSE naming in the package files (bnc#888995)
* Thu Jul 31 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #310 - 2014/07/25
* update package/freebsd files based on xterm #309 port
* adapt changes from Minux3.2 which ported xterm #197, to allow
building on that platform both using imake as well as using
the configure script
* update precompose.c based on Unicode 7.0
* build-fix for --with-Xaw3dxft option (report by Emanuel Haupt)
* Tue Jul 15 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #309 - 2014/07/13
* modify configure script to work around debris left by XQuartz
upgrades.
* modify test-package scripts to enable ReGIS graphics.
* improvements/additions to ReGIS graphics, e.g., drawing text
(Ross Comb).
* add --with-Xaw3dxft, to link with Xaw 3d xft library
(Stephen P Wall).
* amend reset for cursor-shape to take into account
cursorUnderline resource (report by Christian Weisgerber).
* update config.guess, config.sub
* Mon Jun 23 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #308 - 2014/06/19
* corrected font used for clipping double-width bitmap fonts
from patch #307 changes to work around mis-scaled fonts
(Debian #752947).
* improve wording of a warning message.
* Wed Jun 18 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #307 - 2014/06/17
* fill background for top/bottom parts of
double-width/double-height characters, to cover occasional
gaps due to bitmap font-scaling (report by Egmont Koblinger).
* amend resets for keyboard-type, pointer-mode and title-modes
from xterm #305 changes to account for resource settings
(Debian #751351).
* modify printAttributes feature to include new SGR codes.
* modify cursor show/hide logic to work with italic fonts.
* do clipping and filling for a case with bitmap-fonts and
italics when the font server returns only a "close" match
(report/testcase by Egmont Koblinger).
* adjust loop comparison for underlining to display underlines
on 5x8 font as in patch #304 (Debian #750733).
* amend fix for Freedesktop #15979 (Debian #750733).
* amend xterm.appdata.xml, making it validate with current
schema.
* Thu Jun 12 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- a special changelog entry containing the full patch file name
instead of the short one that appears in the real update commit
(previous changelog entry): xterm-decomposed_bitmaps.patch,
that appeases the checks in the openSUSE:Factory project in
OBS. These checks (and thus also this entry) are of the utmost
importance since they ensure that a package changelog can be
used instead of a proper source version control system and sane
patch header comments. It also adds lots of important
information on top of the usual boring features & fixes
descriptions nobody is really interested in.
* Tue Jun 10 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- Fix Xerror failures on ppc64le (bnc#881131)
[-decomposed_bitmaps.patch]
* Wed Jun 04 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #306 - 2014/06/03
* fixes for display-errors in new SGR codes (report by Egmont
Koblinger).
* Tue Jun 03 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #305 - 2014/06/02
* add xterm.appdata.xml (request by Richard Hughes). By the way,
none of the released validators yet handle <licence> tags (or
<metadata_license>, etc).
* fix memory leaks in bitmap font-name caching.
* other changes to hard-reset behavior:
+ reset keyboard-type on hard-reset.
+ reset pointer-mode (pointerMode) on hard-reset
+ reset title-modes (titleModes) on hard-reset
+ reset cursor-shape on hard or soft-reset
+ reset LEDs on hard-reset.
+ reset DECSACE on hard-reset.
* reset bracketed-paste mode on hard-reset (suggested by Egmont
Koblinger).
* modify UTF-8 decoder to account for allowC1Printable resource.
* revise getXftColor to ensure that its sequence number will not
overflow in long-running sessions.
* minor fix to selection to prevent hidden character from being
returned in selection data (report by Egmont Koblinger).
* add -sh to help-message.
* amend check for incomplete fonts to always decide that a
character is missing if the font lacks per-character metrics
(prompted by Freedesktop #15979).
* minor reorganization to implement “filler” SGR features. There
are no established applications which rely upon these; some
people find them amusing.
+ separate bits used to manage drawing state from
attribute-bits.
+ implement SGR codes 2, 3, 9, 21 and their corresponding
resets.
+ add configure option --disable-wide-attrs to disable the
feature.
* additional changes for ReGIS support (patch by Ross Combs):
+ fix some arc drawing bugs and add support for pattern
shading.
* Thu May 22 2014 gber@opensuse.org
- enable support for sixel graphics originally introduced with
patch #294
* Mon May 05 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #304 - 2014/05/03
* add debugging check for parsing table entries, fixed a few
inconsistencies.
* handle utmp/utmpx strings consistently with new function that
null-pads unused locations.
* build-fix for imake configuration with FreeBSD 9 and later,
to account for replacing utmp with utmpx.
* improve handling of the fontsel (font-selection) menu item:
+ initialize the menu entry differently if the toolbar
configuration is used, i.e., enabling it without attempting
to use the current selection as a font name. Because of the
way in which the toolbar is setup, this attempt usually
failed, and would result in a warning.
+ if the menu action fails, e.g., no font can be loaded for
the given selected name, then recover by resuming with the
current font. Before, the recovery went to the default
font. That was done to work around missing bitmap font in
patch #276.
* document OSC 119 in the control sequences listing (report by
Egmont Koblinger).
* modify special handling of XF86Paste or SunPaste keysyms (see
patch #227) to use the standard shift/lock modifiers in case
those are, for example, used in level 3 in an XKB file (patch
by Matthieu Herrb).
* configure macro updates:
+ drop the -no-gcc option from CF_INTEL_COMPILER
+ modify CF_XOPEN_SOURCE to suppress the check for defining
_XOPEN_SOURCE on Solaris
* reduce bss storage used for ReGIS/Sixel modules, as well as
cleanup storage usage in other modules.
* initial changes for ReGIS support (patch by Ross Combs):
+ document control-sequences
+ separate ifdef's for sixel and color-register features
+ add configuration for VT382
* Fri Mar 07 2014 meissner@suse.com
- Patch #303 - 2014/03/06
* improve check for /etc/shells to allow its entries to be symbolic
links.
* fix a regression in patch #302 fixes relating to interaction of
SHELL and XTERM_SHELL variables (Debian #740919).
* improve manpage discussion of use of /etc/shells for validating the
SHELL environment variable.
* further improve the approximation for color map by ignoring bits
which would not be applied by the rgb masks for the current visual
(report by Joe Peterson).
* add -report-colors to usage-message (report by Joe Peterson).
- Patch #302 - 2014/03/02
* amend approximation for color map introduced in patch #277 to make
that apply only to TrueColor (adapted from patch by Joe Peterson).
* add -report-colors option, to show colors as they are allocated.
* fix some gcc -Wcast-qual warnings.
* correct app-defaults location for CentOS-4 in xterm.spec
* improve check in minstall.sh for X manpage's section number; add
sample dependencies for the relevant documentation package to
packaging test-scripts (prompted by Novell #779474).
* modify sample build-scripts for dpkg and rpm to ensure that vttests
scripts are uncompressed and executable.
* modify Perl scripts in vttests to use env to find Perl rather than
relying on /usr/bin/perl This makes the sample scripts usable with
NetBSD and other systems using pkgsrc.
* amend check from patch #301 for valid shell to permit existing
SHELL value to specify the shell; clarify the behavior in the
manpage (report by Emmanuel Thome).
* amend change to wide-character processing from patch #257 to allow
switching to/from UTF-8 encoding if the utf8 resource was not set
to "always" (report by Honza Maly).
* fix incorrect free from patch #301 changes, if explicit program
without -e option is a valid shell (patch by Romain Francois).
* Mon Jan 20 2014 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #301 - 2014/01/19
* OSC 104 and 105 did not accept parameter to reset a specific
color (patch by Egmont Koblinger).
* add configure check for initgroups, and use that function to
complement its use of setgid (prompted by patch by Miroslav
Lichvar).
* improve manpage description of scrollbar translations versus
the vt100 translations (Debian #723573).
* add a few paragraphs to manpage explaining the implications
of xterm's reliance on X Toolkit for command-line parsing.
* modify cursor-theme logic to check if the environment
variable XCURSOR_THEME is set to a nonempty value before
constructing a dummy them (prompted by similar check added in
OpenBSD CVS).
* add check for a case where TrueType bold font is missing a
glyph where the non-bold font has it. Temporarily switch to
the non-bold font to draw the glyph (report by David
Demelier).
* minor documentation fixes for ctlseqs.ms
* only set SHELL environment variable to programs found in
/etc/shells (prompted by patch/report by Al Poole).
* build-fix, when --disable-wide-chars --disable-boxchar is
used (prompted by patch by Andrey Panov).
* Thu Dec 05 2013 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #300 - 2013/12/03
* amend workaround for Xcursor library from patch #298; the
suggested solution for Debian #466704 fell afoul of a bug in
Xcursor which treated an empty value for Inherits= as a valid
theme—and resulted in a stack overflow due to unbounded
recursion. Certain environments such as XFCE4 exposed the
bug. A related report in Debian #531679 was closed without
following the recommendation to limit stack recursion in this
library (reported by Sergey V Dyatko, Debian #731269).
* Mon Dec 02 2013 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #299 - 2013/12/01
* fix regression in line-drawing from patch #297 changes for
NRCS exposed by change to assumeAllChars resource in patch
[#298] (report by Markus Waldeck).
* Fri Nov 29 2013 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #298 - 2013/11/27
* quiet a warning about ambiguity when -h command-line option
is parsed, since -help is used rather than the options
mentioned in the message. This warning was caused by fixes in
patch #272.
* remove an extra check for keypad-mode which interfered with
the patch #280 modifyKeyboard feature for the numeric keypad
(report by David Conners).
* change default for assumeAllChars resource (Debian #725682).
There are unresolved issues with Terminus fonts, e.g., Debian
[#722017].
* add -report-fonts command-line option and reportFonts
resource to optionally report the fonts which are loaded, and
their metrics such as the number of missing glyphs.
* work around Xcursor library to make pointerColor resource
work as documented (Debian #466704, analysis by Vincent
Lefèvre).
* amend change from patch #297 for ASCII-equivalents to ensure
that missing characters which happen to be double-width are
padded to the expected number of columns. Also, correct the
choice between normal/wide Xft fonts used when checking for
missing characters (reported by WU Yue, Debian #728949,
Gentoo #491334).
* modify sixel-graphics drawing to account for scrollbar width
(report by Mario Edelmann).
* fix remaining issue with DECNRCM; the British character set
was confused with ISO Latin-1 (report by Hayaki Saito).
* build-fix for --disable-boxchars configure option.
* updated configure macros, from ongoing work on lynx and
ncurses.
* update config.guess, config.sub
* Mon Sep 30 2013 sbrabec@suse.cz
- Fix invalid terminal.png (IDAT TFB error).
* Fri Sep 20 2013 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #297 - 2013/09/10
* modify check for missing cells in bitmap font to work around
terminus 10646 encoding, which is mostly missing, add
assumeAllChars resource to provide the older behavior.
* modify macros used to check for missing cells in bitmap fonts
to pick up a long-overlooked improvement made to xfd in
XFree86.
* improve workaround for groff versus ASCII-equivalents; patch
[#185] had overlooked Xft configuration (reported by anonymous
user on Arch Linux forum).
* review/extend DECNRCM support (prompted by report by Hayaki
Saito asking about the two "A" codes).
+ make pasting of DECNRCM data work by translating the pasted
data into the selected encoding.
+ limit mode changes to VT220 and up.
+ ignore SCS for National Replacement Characters if DECNRCM
is not set.
+ add tables and logic to decode SCS controls ending with "%"
and one additional character. This expects the parsing of
SCS to VT320.
+ also added parsing for SCS of DEC Supplemental and DEC
Technical, which are for VT2xx and VT3xx respectively.
+ implement VT220 Multinational character set "GR" aka "DEC
Supplemental Graphic".
+ DEC Technical character set based on vt100.net description.
+ implement Portuguese NRC.
+ provide for temporarily switching to/from NRC mode from
UTF-8 mode when DECNRCM is set or reset.
* minor fix to assert's found while testing examples from
ttdoda's slrm-test1.txt.
* modify DECLRMM to not update the cursor position (report by
Iwamoto Kouichi forwarded by Hayaki Saito).
* modify cursor-position report to take origin-mode into account
(report by Hayaki Saito, see also iTerm2 pull request 129).
* correct off-by-one comparison in when handling carriage-return
at left margin (patch by Iwamoto Kouichi, forwarded by Hayaki
Saito).
* improve handling of faceName resource when a "size=" property
is embedded in it, by using that size to replace the default
faceSize resource. This lets xterm honor the other faceSize
resources (report by Jens Schweikhardt).
* improve OSC 52 selection-data by setting its timestamp to
correspond to the most-recent event received by xterm, to
ensure that calls to XtOwnSelect succeed even if the selection
is manipulated solely through the keyboard (prompted by patch
by Richard Tollerton).
* change configure-script defaults for "luit" and "wide-chars"
options to match the values used in the imake configuration,
to lessen user surprise if they are accustomed to building
xterm using imake(report by Andries E Brouwer).
* improve the imake-related configuration's check if xterm is
started in a locale that uses UTF-8 encoding. Before, this
checked the locale settings only for "UTF-8", now it checks
ignoring case for "UTF-8" and "UTF-8" (report by Andries E
Brouwer).
* Fri Jul 12 2013 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #296 - 2013/07/10
* improve experimental sixel feature (patch by Ross Combs).
* modify delimiter in configure macro used to add a library
after a given library to avoid confusion with -Wl
pass-through options to linker (NetBSD #48031).
* fix quoting in expression used to trim extra libraries from
patch #295 changes (report by Thomas Klausner).
- Patch #295 - 2013/07/06
* adjust order of libraries to work around incomplete symbol
resolution when using --as-needed option (ArchLinux #36047).
* minor fix for plink.sh, for IRIX64.
- Patch #294 - 2013/07/05
* add note in ctlseqs.ms for CPR response pointing out a
potential point of confusion with the string sent by a
modified F1 key (suggested by Bram Moolenaar).
* improve plink.sh by checking if the linker supports the
- -as-needed option (suggested by David Philippi).
* improve clearing for private mode 1049 when switching to the
alternate screen (Debian #711758).
* amend fix from patch #292 by removing now-unneeded chunk
which introduced problem in selection (Debian #714527).
* add definition to optionally override compiled-in class for
xterm from makefile, needed for test-packages.
* add configure option --enable-sixel-graphics
* add experimental support for sixel graphics (patch by Ross
Combs).
* Tue May 28 2013 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #293 - 2013/05/27
* modify sample xterm.spec to use newer icon
* add configure option --with-icon-symlink to work around
systems which map icon requests for to a single "xterm" icon,
but neglect to install the icon needed for window decorations
(report by H Merijn Brand).
* improve parameterizing of sample xterm.spec
* amend fix for printer from patch #280, removing a reset of the
signal handler for SIGCHLD (report by Joe Julian).
* set environment variable XTERM_FILTER if a locale-filter is
used.
* enable DEBUG logic when --enable-trace configure option is
given.
* improve description of initialFont, set-vt-font and
set-tex-text in manpage (Debian #707899).
* fix regression from patch #292; selecting a word that ended at
the right margin without wrapping would not select the last
cell (report by Christian Weisgerber).
* Thu May 02 2013 pcerny@suse.com
- cleanup of spec file and patches
* Fri Apr 26 2013 meissner@suse.com
- Patch #292 - 2013/04/25
* add limit-check when double-click selects a word; if the saved-lines
were scrolled back and the word selected wrapped at the screen's lower
right corner, an assertion was triggered (patch by Taketo Kabe).
* correct limit-check in unsaveEditBufLines, fixing a case where
enlarging the terminal size could show a blank line where there
actually is available text (patch by Bertram Felgenhauer).
* add PasteControls feature to allowWindowOps which by default
disallows pasting control characters other than formatting such as
carriage return (discussion with Hayaki Saito).
* fix typo in ctlseqs.ms for DECRQM response (patch by Emanuele
Giaquinta).
* update default shown in configure --help message for
- -with-terminal-id option (patch by Andres Perera).
* rename script/preprocessor variables used for substituting the
backarrowKey default value for consistency (patch by Andres
Perera).
* set umask to 077 before creating debugging-trace files.
* add configure option --disable-openpty to control whether openpty()
may be used in preference to posix_openpt().
* improve workaround from patch #279 for BSD systems which do not
complete initialization until both sides of the pseudoterminal are
opened, by preferring openpty() function over posix_openpt() when
available (report by Christian Weisgerber).
- refreshed xterm-disallow-window-and-fonts-ops.patch
* Thu Mar 14 2013 meissner@suse.com
- Patch #291 - 2013/02/26
* add validity check for xterm widget parameter to AlternateScroll
function, needed to handle wheel mouse events in the scrollbar area
since patch #282 changes which introduced alternateScroll feature
(Redhat #874327).
* Sat Mar 02 2013 schwab@suse.de
- config-guess-sub-update.patch:
Update config.guess/sub for aarch64
* Tue Feb 19 2013 sndirsch@suse.com
- fixed check for existance of bdftopcf; added bdftopcf
Buildrequires for openSUSE > 12.1 (bnc#804329)
* Mon Feb 18 2013 abergmann@novell.com
- Patch #290 - 2013/02/12
* revert of patch #282 change was incomplete (report by Jim Reisert).
* fix typo in manpage (report by Vincent Lefevre).
- Patch #289 - 2013/02/08
* revert the patch #282 change which restored "lost" text after
shrinking/growing the screen size. If the screen was updated between
the two resizing operations, unexpected text might be shown at the
end (report/testcase by Joe Peterson).
* reverse the arrow-keys sent for alternateScroll to match the usage
in browsers (suggested by Dieter Roelants).
* modify mouse reports to consistently indicate motion events whether
or not a button is pressed. Old behavior (since patch #127 modified
encoding for wheel mouse) showed only that the button was released
if no button had been pressed (report by Andy Koppe).
* correct and improve behavior for SGR 1006 mouse protocol on button
release in any-event mode. Initial implementation in patch #277 left
internal state showing the last button pressed when reporting motion
events. It now keeps track of all buttons which have been pressed
and released, showing the lowest remaining button by number in the
response (reports by Hayaki Saito, Andy Koppe).
* fix inconsistency between TermColors and OscTextColors enums which
interchanged values for tektronix cursor color and highlight
foreground in control sequences in patch #225 (report/patch by
Peder Stray).
* fix inconsistent use of noreturn-attribute in Exit function which
interfered with analysis by clang.
* remove incorrect free used in computation of XTERM_SHELL variable,
from Coverity fixes in patch #288 (FreeBSD #175782).
* add --with-valgrind option to configure script for consistency with
my other programs.
* update table of ambiguous width characters in wcwidth.c based on
Unicode 6.2.0
* update table of combining characters in wcwidth.c based on Unicode
6.2.0
* update precompose.c based on Unicode 6.2.0
* Fri Jan 25 2013 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #288 - 2013/01/09
* fix a special case in ShowCursor where the foreground and
background colors of the current position are the same. In
that case, choose the further of the window's foreground and
background colors for the cursor color.
* modify alternateScroll feature added in patch #282 to use
either CSI or SS3 according to the cursor keys application
mode setting, to simplify using it in vi, etc. (suggested by
Dietar Roelants).
* revise manpage for resize to clarify the changes which resize
may make to the terminal settings as well as to the terminal
itself.
* remove code such as struct ttysize, used for SunOS 3 and 4.
* modify configure script and makefile to check for groff and
suppress groff-specific rules if groff is not found.
* modify ctlseqs.ms and makefile to work around bugs in grohtml
which cause ".png" files to be truncated when producing html
documentation.
* modify suffix rules for "make docs" to make the names of the
generated ".png" files predictable, helping to work around
longstanding problems with this feature of groff-none of its
releases work for all of xterm's tables..
* correct typo in ctlseqs.ms for DECIC and DECDC; the character
preceding the final "~" is an ASCII single-quote "'" rather
than a space (report by Paul LeoNerd Evans).
* update CF_GCC_VERSION macro, handling both Debian and Darwin.
* improve configure script checks for the
- -with-desktop-category option. After patch #280 changes, if
no value was given for this option, and no existing desktop
files found for comparison, the incorrect "auto" value was
passed into the generated desktop file (report by Julien
Cristau).
* modify sample build-scripts to disable check for imake due to
code-rot in Xorg.
* add -v command-line option to resize, reporting the same
version string as xterm and the two shell-wrappers.
* make name-transformation apply to other occurrences of resize,
other manpages.
* special-case the name-transformation in xterm's manpage in the
NAME section so that the result works with makewhatis (report
by Julien Cristau).
* modify install-rules for manpages to put each program's
respective transformed name into the header rather than
xterm's.
* remove deprecated files: proto.h, os2main.c
* minor fixes based on Coverity scan, including:
+ correct caching of Atom value for the font menu's
"Selection" entry.
+ ensure that utmp/utmpx calls do not depend upon trailing
nulls in the ut_id and ut_line values.
* Tue Nov 27 2012 sbrabec@suse.cz
- Verify GPG signatures.
* Mon Nov 26 2012 meissner@suse.com
- Patch #287 - 2012/11/25
* fix a case where in_put() loop could continue when it has found an
X event rather than the pty, causing the pty-read to be delayed
(patch by Balazs Kezes).
* add option to pointerMode resource and corresponding control
sequences to allow text-cursor to remain hidden if the pointer
leaves/enters the window via accelerator keys. Ordinary motion
within the window restores the pointer (prompted by patch by Balazs
Kezes).
* remove special case of modifiers for the Mode_switch and
XK_ISO_Level3_Shift from patch #223. Verified that the conflict
which this was intended to resolve does not happen for normal
compose- or modeswitch-handling (prompted by patch by Balazs Kezes,
Debian #638694).
* modify the handling of focus-change events to ignore those whose
detail is NotifyPointer, since those are sent in addition to
focus-change events directed to the old/new windows having focus
(prompted by patch by Balazs Kezes to prevent the urgency-hint from
being reset in this scenario).
* modify description of iconName in manpage to make it clearer that
this resource does not specify the filename of an icon (discussion
with Ian Collier). * modify iconHint resource to allow suppressing
the built-in icon by setting this to "none" (discussion with Ian
Collier).
* make -iconic option work with the toolbar configuration.
* correct initialization of window manager hints used to set the
icon-pixmap. That detail from patch #282 overwrote state used to
control the -iconic command-line option (report by Ian Collier).
* fix paste64 feature for the case where the selection comes from the
current terminal. The selection callback can happen after the reply
is partly built, making it necessary to flush the reply-buffer to
keep things in the proper order (report by Ailin Nemui).
* reject command-line options which are longer than the options in
xterm's table, to avoid mismatches (Redhat #875305).
* correct attribution for patch #282 changes.
* Tue Oct 30 2012 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #286 - 2012/10/29
* fix minstall.in to work with "make docs" rule, so that patch
number appears in the corresponding generated documentation.
* modify minstall.in to keep the name shown in the heading
consistent with any renaming, e.g., for test-builds.
* check for misconfigured printerCommand resource on the first
use, warn and disable it if it does not specify an executable
command (Debian #691642).
* improve check for window-manager name needed to establish
usable default for activeIcon resource. This works around a
scenario where gdm does incomplete cleanup, leaving window
properties that refer to windows which no longer exist
(Redhat #869959).
* Thu Oct 25 2012 meissner@suse.com
- Patch #285 - 2012/10/23
* add/adapt FreeBSD ports files for test-building.
* modify minstall.sh to use the patch-number and date in the manpage
footer.
* add check for failure to allocate the fg/bg colors at startup,
e.g., misconfiguration. Work around by setting both to the default
colors (suggested by Scott Bertilson).
* amend change for patch #280 which added modifyKeyboard, to make
modifyOtherKeys work (report by Ailin Nemui).
* add query-colors.pl example for OSC 4.
* correct mis-applied fix for minstall.sh (report by Miroslav
Lichvar).
* Tue Oct 16 2012 meissner@suse.com
-Patch #284 - 2012/10/14
* amend configurability changes for icons from patch #283, moving the
new functionality to the iconHint resource to avoid conflict with
existing uses of the iconName resource in the Shell widget (report
by Emanuel Haupt).
* fix documentation errata (reports by Miroslav Lichvar):
+ correct manpage default for allowTcapOps (see patch #243
+ modify documentation for configure --enable-backarrow-key to
match the script (see patch #280).
+ fix typo in minstall.sh in patch #283, which made the
leading-cap "Xterm" become "xterm" (patch by Miroslav).
* fix two typos in configure.in from patch #283 changes; one broke
the --regex configure option (report by H Merijn Brand).
* Thu Oct 11 2012 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #283 - 2012/10/09
* modify makefile and script to generate appropriate renaming
s/xterm/xterm-dev/ for test-package's manpage.
* improve makefile rules for installing/uninstalling pixmap
files, to include the newer mini- and filled- variants.
* clarify change in manpage regarding patch #282 change to
always set a window-decoration icon, even if iconName is not
set.
* add a fourth flavor of window-decoration icons,
"filled-xterm" for a monochrome xterm with filled interior.
* use shape-mask to improve contrast of the window-decoration
icons.
* minor changes to icon colors to improve contrast on
bright-mud backgrounds.
* drop configure checks for memmove versus bcopy, and strerror
function; all currently tested platforms support these.
* cleanup configure macros, as done in byacc 20121003.
* improve configurability of the built-in icon selectable via
the iconName resource.
* update config.guess, config.sub
- fix build on older SUSE distros (post-12.2)
* Fri Oct 05 2012 meissner@suse.com
- new fontpackages-devel only valid post-12.2
* Mon Oct 01 2012 meissner@suse.com
- Patch #282 - 2012/09/28
* improve configure check for XkbKeycodeToKeysym, fixing a regression
on some older systems in the patch #280 changes.
* add clarification in manpage for alwaysBoldMode and veryBoldColors
resources (prompted by Derek Martin question about using the former
with TrueType fonts).
* add alternateScroll resource and corresponding control sequences
which modify the scroll-forw and scroll-back actions: when the
alternate screen is displayed, wheel mouse up/down will send cursor
keys (Debian #683942).
* improve rendering for the case when a Unicode character is absent
in the bold font but present in the normal font by temporarily
falling back to the normal font (Debian #359006, Debian #408666).
* provide configure option --enable-double-buffer and ifdef's to
allow comparisons with/without double-buffering. The default uses
normal buffering.
* add feature to optionally scroll current page before clearing,
ontrolled by resource setting cdXtraScroll (prompted by patch by
Richard Wagenblast):
* integrated patches from Arch Linux forum posting (patches by
Richard Wagenblast):
+ modify reallocation limit of line-data when resizing screen so
that "lost" text will be restored if the screen is first
shrunk and then grown.
+ modify output to use double-buffering to reduce flicker.
* modify scroll-lock action to handle on/off/toggle keywords like
other actions. Previously the optional parameter was interpreted as
an integer.
* extend DECSCUSR to provide a way to set the cursor to a vertical
bar (patch by Paul Bolle).
* add -8, -c, -d and -u options to 88colors2.pl and 256colors2.pl
scripts. No current terminal emulator recognizes C1 controls while
handling UTF-8 encodingâ\200\224see notes in patch #119 and patch #109
regarding utf8controlsâ\200\224but the -u and -8 options are useful for
demonstrating this point.
* improve speed when changing color palettes using OSC controls by
deferring repaint while followup controls might be additional color
palette changes.
* modify SGR 38 and SGR 48 to accept RGB index, matching the closest
entry in xterm's palette.
* extend SGR 38 and SGR 48 to accept colon as parameter separator
(request by Paul LeoNerd Evans).
* modify fullscreen action to allow it to toggle the full-screen mode
rather than only set or unset it (prompted by Eeri Kask's
suggestion to support _NET_WM_TOGGLE). This implementation does not
yet use _NET_WM_TOGGLE.
* add support for _NET_WM_STATE_MAXIMIZED_VERT and
_NET_WM_STATE_MAXIMIZED_HORZ EWMH properties (suggested by Eeri
Kask).
* make fullscreen mode work with the tek4014 window. This change
makes only the currently active window to be changed to fullscreen
rather than changing both windows.
* modify TekClear function to discard pending output before clearing
the tek4014 display (patch by Kevin Ryde).
* fix deleteIsDEL feature, broken in patch #280 changes (report by
Mike Thornburg, forwarded by Jeremy Huddleston).
* fix a special case of wrapping double-width characters
(report/test-case by Ken Winstein).
* add E3 extended capability to xterm-basic to match ncurses 20120728
patch.
* fix incorrect transformation of row-parameter for
ClearCurBackground in patch #279 which caused incorrect painting in
some scrolling scenarios (report by Chuck Silvers).
* fix typo in manpage description of +maximized option (Paul Maier).
* change default for configure option --with-xpm, turning it on
unless requested otherwise.
* add configure option --with-icon-name which can be used to override
the default icon used in icon-themes.
* extend activeIcon resource to provide default value which tells
xterm to determine the window manager's name and automatically
enable the feature for fvwm and window maker. The explicit
true/false values can be used to override this behavior.
* add "mini" xterm icon, which scales better than the standard xterm
icon, e.g., for the gnome/kde "panel" feature.
* extend iconName resource to search for icon named according to
resource value and use that if found. If not found, use compiled-in
pixmap. Both set the WM_ICON_NAME property which is used by various
window managers, usually for window decoration.
* updated autoconf patch, adding support for --datarootdir, which
changes the default location of manpages.
* further improved autoconf macros for configuring icons, from vile
9.8h

- Patch #281 - 2012/06/26
* remove "$(srcdir)/" from install-icon rule to fix builds when
- -srcdir configuration option is used.
* fix for configure script's search for icon file when it is
not found in the current directory, e.g., when building out
of tree (patch by Thierry Reding).
* undo the XK_Home / XK_End change from patch #280 which broke
the non-VT220 keyboard for those keys (report by H Merijn
Brand).
- Patch #280 - 2012/06/24
* add configure check to work around warning from
desktop-file-install for "Encoding", noting that it emits
deprecation warnings without providing its version
information.
* add configure option --with-icon-theme to tell xterm whether
to install into an icon theme, defaulting to "hicolor"
(Redhat #755206, #799614 and #804279).
* change --with-icondir to look for "icons" directory rather
than "pixmaps" by default. Add new option --with-pixmapdir to
allow these two uses to be installed concurrently.
* modify configure options --with-app-defaults and
- -with-icondir to accept "auto" as value to look for existing
directory from well-known locations.
* add missing codes for secondary DA response which tell the
type of terminal as in the primary DA response.
* update primary DA response for VT420 to include user windows
and horizontal scrolling.
* add modifyKeyboard resource to support keypad-modifier
changes per request by Thomas Wolff.
* add XK_Home / XK_End to editing-keypad checks
* add back-tab key kB to termcap entries to match the terminfo.
* update terminfo to match corresponding entries in ncurses,
e.g., add XT and adjust sgr string for xterm-bold entry.
* add configure options to predefine the most commonly
customized resources for terminal-settings, use those to
substitute into the manpage the corresponding compiled-in
values: altSendsEscape, backarrowKey, backarrowKeyIsErase,
deleteIsDEL, metaSendsEscape (Redhat #819588).
* change default emulation level to VT420 (discussion with
Ailin Nemui).
* improve logic for DECSCL; patch 279 partly enforced
limitation of this to higher-level emulations. This patch
finishes that change.
* improve check for base of combining characters, preventing
combination when cursor movement has intervened. Mosh's
webpage gives two different examples of this, with other
causes ascribed to the behavior.
* modify IL/DL to set cursor to first column on row for better
VT102/VT220 compatibility (prompted by code review of mosh).
* separate state-table entries for DECSC/DECRC from the
ANSI.SYS save/restore cursor, since the latter conflicts with
DECSLRM when DECLRMM is enabled since patch #279
(report/analysis by Ailin Nemui).
* fixes to avoid using SIGCHLD handler of main program in
printer's subprocess (report by Joe Julian).
* correct restore-parameter for mouse-modes from patch #279
changes.
* add null-pointer checks to input-method caching added in
patch #277 to fix a problem in the exposure code, when
deselecting a window (report by Kriston Rehberg).
* unset DESKTOP_STARTUP_ID environment variable to lessen
confusion on the part of GTK applications which use the
variable without checking it (report by John Little).

- Patch #278 - 2012/01/18
* correct initialization for eightBitMeta resource
(FreeBSD #164101).
* make special check for Darwin 9 (and lower) to not use
posix_openpt (report by Christian Ebert).
* minor fixes (adding ".ne" directives) to reduce the cases
where groff's utility for generating images for tables dumps
core. Most versions of groff (I've found 1.19.2 to be the
most stable) dump core when attempting to report that there
are too few lines on a page for a table to be shown.
- Patch #277 - 2012/01/07
* remove special case for ISC pseudo-terminals which attempts
to open the pty in two different ways.
* move call to grantpt before asking utempter to add a record,
to work with kFreeBSD which does not update the terminal's
ownership until this point (Debian #652907).
* document limitation of XIM interface in manpage
(Debian #230787).
* cleanup error reporting with new xtermWarning function.
* add configure option --disable-selection-ops to make the new
actions optional.
* add four new actions for making the selection or data
directly copied from the screen (prompted by discussion in
Debian #637001, as well as report by Arjen van Tol):
o exec-formatted
o exec-selectable
o insert-formatted
o insert-selectable
* add visualBellLine resource to allow visualBell to flash only
the current line (prompted by patch by Gertjan Halkes).
* add eightBitMeta resource to control the features which
modify or interpret the eighth bit of a key when the meta
modifier key is pressed (prompted by Debian #326200).
* improve discussion of eightBitInput in the manpage (prompted
by Debian #326200).
* correct logic for alt-sends-escape action, overlooked when
implementing altSendsEscape resource, which still used
eightBitInput resource value.
* add a workaround for XAllocColor(), which does not actually
allocate "a read-only colormap entry corresponding to the
closest RGB value supported by the hardware", but rather
a rough approximation (Debian #650291).
* undo parameter checks for RequestResize() added in patch #251
and amended in patch #270, because zeros also are special
cases (report by John S Urban).
* modify some test-scripts to use /bin/echo rather than the
shell's possibly-builtin echo, to work around broken
configuration on Mac OS X, i.e., neither honoring the option
nor flagging an error.
* add SGR 1006, as a better technical solution than SGR 1015:
o the responses will not be confused with line-deletion and
scrolling controls.
o the button encoding is a little simpler, since it does not
add an unnecessary 32 because the integer parameter does
not have to be represented as a printable character.
o the control responses for pressing and releasing a mouse
button differ, allowing an application to tell which button
was released.
* Besides these improvements, in discussion, it was noted that
urxvt's implementation of 1005 is incorrect, relying upon
a locale that provides UTF-8 encoding. In contrast, vttest
demonstrates a correct decoding, independent of locale.
* add support for urxvt SGR 1015 to address shortcoming of
SGR 1005 with luit (patch by Egmont Koblinger).
* add ISO and DEC controls useful for left/right scrolling.
* add some changes for OpenBSD and MirBSD (adapted from patch
by Thorsten Glaser):
o disable search for non-Unix96 ptys.
o fix a gcc warning in timestamp_filename
o modify Imakefile to install xterm setgid to utmp.
* add/use/prefer posix_openpt() for opening pseudo-terminal.
* modify special errno handling case in ptydata.c from
patch #158 to allow for the possibility that any platform may
have special cases where "/dev/tty" is absent. For example,
this can happen in a FreeBSD jail (patch by David Wolfskill).
* add keyboard logic to map shift-tab into XK_ISO_Left_Tab,
which is usually, not always, done by the X keyboard
configuration.
* portability fixes for some configure macros: CF_XOPEN_SOURCE
* Thu Nov 17 2011 werner@suse.de

bnc #729226)
* Wed Oct 19 2011 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #276 - 2011/10/10
* modify clipping limits for TrueType fonts to account for the
scaleHeight resource setting, to work around another problem
due to recent FreeType changes. In this case, the DejaVu Sans
Mono set to pixelsize=13.5 is truncated because the font
descent is reduced by FreeType to match an incorrect height
metric (report by Adam Lee).
* improve recovery when bitmap fonts are not installed, e.g.,
so that switching font-sizes works for TrueType fonts.
* modify lookup for XTERM_SHELL feature to allow relative
pathnames.
* modify abbreviation disambiguation check for command-line
parameters to account for -geometry, whose parameter may
begin with "+" or "-" (report by Scott Bertilson).
* Thu Sep 15 2011 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #275 - 2011/09/11
* add ash, zsh to known shells for resize.
* modify resize to reuse the logic from xterm which determines
the actual logon-user's shell if $SHELL is not set.
* revert the unsetenv("SHELL") added in patch #272.
* an unsetenv("SHELL") added in patch #272 to help ensure that
luit would get the user's shell consistently did not work as
expected for cases where multiple names are in the
password-file for a given uid. That was because changes in
patch #157 to handle this situation did not take into account
that repeated calls to getpwnam and getpwuid return a pointer
to the same static buffer. Fixed the older logic to work as
intended, by ensuring that the passwd-data from each call is
stored separately (report by Paul Keusemann).
* adjust ifdef's for putenv and unsetenv in case only one of
those is provided on a given platform.
* correct comparison used in ExposeContains macro from patch
[#274] changes, to handle window-dragging (patch by Todd
Eigenschink).
* Wed Sep 07 2011 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #274 - 2011/09/05
* portability fixes for cygwin: do not define SVR4, and work
around nonstandard header location.
* ifdef'd use of unsetenv from patch #273 changes to work with
Solaris 9 (report by Waldemar Rachwal).
* modify logic for XtAppPending to merge adjacent Expose and
ConfigureNotify events which are redundant (report by Edward
McGuire).
* fix an unneeded warning message when -r option is given.
* remove a few redundant entries from table used for helping
abbreviation-checking of command-line options, makes -geom
work again after patch #272 changes as an abbreviation of
- geometry.
* add scaleHeight resource and command-line option -sh as
workaround for some font-configurations broken by changes in
FreeType 2.4.6 (report by Miroslav Hodak).
* portability fixes for some configure macros: CF_FUNC_TGETENT,
CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, CF_X_ATHENA_LIBS.
* add configure option --with-freetype-config to improve
selection over the plethora of configuration options which
freetype has so far provided.
* build-fix for configure --enable-load-vt-fonts when
- -enable-widec is not specified.
* build-fixes for suppressing various features, needed after
changes in patches 270, 271 and 272 (report by Brian
Lindholm)
* Wed Aug 31 2011 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #273 - 2011/08/25
* build-fix for out-of-tree "make docs" rule.
* correct a typo in x_strdup, from patch #198 changes.
* correct initialization for -e option, broken in patch #272
changes (report by Gabriele Balducci).
* build-fix for out-of-tree builds to address minstall script
changes in patch #272 (patch by Thierry Reding).
- Patch #272 - 2011/08/24
* document limitation of Gtk in connection with xterm's -into
option, in the manpage (Ubuntu #806969).
* improve -into by checking for and using the size of the window
within which xterm is embedded, overriding other clues.
* modify logic for localeFilter resource to allow that to
include command-line options of luit.
* improve -into by checking for invalid window-id, and allowing
hexadecimal/decimal/octal values.
* improve keepSelection, adding the case where the highlighting
is cleared, overlooked in patch #230 (patch by Marco
Peereboom).
* improve command-line parsing to make abbreviate options work
consistently across xterm-specific versus standard X toolkit
options, and report cases where an abbreviated option happens
to be ambiguous. In particular, -d now works as an
abbreviation for -display.
* fix regression in command-line parsing introduced in patch
[#271] changes for Debian #629358, (Debian #637910).
* split-out new termcap/terminfo building block xterm+kbs for
configurability.
* modify terminfo file to reflect changes in ncurses for
xterm-16color and xterm-256color.
* modify minstall.sh, etc., to reflect the default default
class, $TERM and decTerminalID values.
* reword resize manpage to reflect the fact that $TERMCAP is not
set on all systems (patch by Alan Coopersmith).
* work around combined Xaw6/Xaw7 package in DragonFlyBSD which
omits the usual symbolic link to the preferred library name.
* further improve build-fix for termcap systems by checking for
some which are only partial implementations, e.g., termcap
2.08 in CentOS 5.2
* Wed Jul 27 2011 pcerny@novell.com
- Patch #271 - 2011/07/14
* omit permissions adjustments to pty on exit except for
pre-Unix98 ptys, since modern implementations handle this
(report by Sean C Farley).
* modify logic for switching fonts between UTF-8 and non-UTF-8
* encoding to not merge the derivable bold-, wide- and widebold
* values from the VT100 fonts. Also suppress warning when not
* using UTF-8 fonts if wide- and widebold-fonts cannot be
* derived or otherwise loaded (report by Werner Scheinast).
* modify menu-creation to suppress entries which will never be
used in the current configuration, rather than simply disabling
them.
* add resource printModeImmediate and menu item to allow print
of screen plus saved lines to a file.
* add menu item to allow runtime enable/disable of the
printFileOnXError feature.
* append a timestamp to filename used in printFileOnXError
feature, and restrict its permissions (request by Vincent
Lefevre).
* add a check when cancelling cursor-blinking, in case the
cursor is blinked off. Fix so that the cursor is repainted
without waiting for other events, e.g., keypress (report by
Ailin Nemui).
* add configure --with-app-class option, to simplify building
"xterm-dev" packages with filenames that do not conflict with
conventional "xterm" packages.
* corrected logic flow for DECSCL, which prevented the updated
operating level from being reported via DECRQSS (report by
Ailin Nemui).
* corrected default for brokenStringTerm resource to match
manpage.
* add vttests/dynamic.pl
* add runtime check for locale not supported by X libraries, and
fallback to XA_STRING in this case (request by Bryan
Henderson).
* fix a special case in configure script after no FreeType
libraries are found. The script was proceeding to check for a
usable configuration.
* add xterm+tmux building block to terminfo (adapted from
changes proposed by Ailin Nemui and Nicholas Marriott).
* improve discussion of faceName resource in manpage (adapted
from suggestions by Jens Schweikhardt).
* correct mapping of shifted up/down cursor-keys in termcap
function-keys mode, i.e., resource tcapFunctionKeys (patch by
Gertjan Halkes).
* update AIX case in CF_XOPEN_SOURCE configure macro to add
release 7.x.
* modify ifdef's in xterm_io.h for __hpux to force that to use
the hacked SYSV support in that file. This fixes a problem
with a non-blocking socket call (patch by Paul Lampert).
* improve filtering of desktop category scanning, to exclude
XFCE.
* modify configure script to work with systems that have both
ncurses (or other terminfo) as well as a real termcap library,
e.g., Slackware (report by Alan Watts).
* modify configure script to work around special case where
user's environment adds compiler flags to the CC variable
(prompted by report by Paul Lampert).
* amend change for Debian #110226 so that "-h" or "-v" options
cause an exit, rather than simply printing to stdout while the
window is displayed (Debian #629358).
* add response for DECRQSS which gives the setting for DECSCUSR.
* modify AllocateTermColor() to handle XtDefaultForeground and
XtDefaultBackground, which are not recognized by XParseColor.
For example, this fixes the use of OSC 112 when no explicit
cursor color was set (report by Ailin Nemui).
* handle special-case of KeyPress translated to popup-menu
action (Ubuntu #756273).
* Tue Jul 12 2011 pcerny@novell.com
- Patch #270 - 2011/04/26
* build-fix, e.g., for using imake on platforms which use the
termcap library.
* modify utf8 resource to accept a name.
* mention default for fontWarnings in manpage (report by Werner
Scheinast).
* split "UTF-8" menu entry into "UTF-8 Encoding" and "UTF-8
Fonts".
* gray-out font-menu entries when a font fails to load, e.g., a
bitmap font is not installed.
* improve behavior when there is no app-defaults file:
o set the toolBar resource to false
o gray-out the font menu entries where no resource is found.
* add configure option --with-desktop-category to allow
customization of the ".desktop" files.
* build-fix for the install-desktop makefile-rule, when the
source/build directories differ (patch by Loïc Minier).
* add menu entry and corresponding resource which can be used to
suppress all bold-fonts (discussion with Jan Engelhardt).
* make internal line-size value consistent with allocated sizes
of character and related arrays to ensure that bulk copying of
line data, e.g., in scrolling, accounts for the padding used
for pointer alignment (adapted from patch by Rajesh
Mandalemula, also reported by Ali Bahar).
* widen ifdef for screen-resizing logic from patch #176 changes
to send SIGWINCH to process group to include any system
supporting ioctl(*,TIOCGPGRP,*) (prompted by linux-specific
patch in OpenSUSE rpm package).
* add printModeOnXError and printFileOnXError resources, which
allow the user to specify that xterm will write the contents
of its screen to a file if it is exiting due to an X error
(Debian #280457).
* restore logic that made reverse-video apply to the scrollbar's
foreground/background, broken in patch #158 (report by Bryan
Ischo).
* amend some of the window operations parameter-checks added in
patch #251 for the push/pop title feature, to allow the
parameters used for window resizing to be -1's, which makes
the corresponding values ignored rather than using the
window's maximum width/height (report by Noah Friedman).
* correct order of initialization for translations vs fullscreen
resources to enable a special case which omits the Alt-Enter
translation when fullscreen is disabled (Debian #612978).
* update config.guess, config.sub
* Thu Mar 03 2011 pcerny@novell.com
- Patch #269 - 2011/02/19
* build-fixes for imake (report by Heiko Berges).
* modify autoconf macro CF_PKG_CONFIG to work with cross-compile
environments (patch by Thierry Reding).
* modify MapToColorMode() to favor bold over underline, matching
the precedence used before patch #252 (report/analysis by
Nicolas George).
* add omitTranslation resource, which can be used to suppress
the default translations for these features:
o fullscreen
o scroll-lock
o shift-fonts
o wheel-mouse
* make the fullscreen feature configurable (Debian #612978)
o add it to the configurable list disallowedWindowOps.
o add command-line option -fullscreen to allow the feature to
be enabled at startup.
o add resource fullscreen to control whether the feature is
active or may be enabled.
* modify probe_netwm_fullscreen_capability for 64-bit machines.
Contrary to XGetWindowProperty manpage, that function returns
32-bit data packed as long's.
* eliminate copy of name resource, which was otherwise used only
to give the terminal-description name for the tcap-query
feature. Use the actual $TERM value instead, as derived from
termName resource, etc.
* eliminate an old inconsistency with error messages, some used
the -name option, while others used argv[0]. The latter is now
used consistently.
* improve configure check for rpath-hack, to improve builds on
systems where gcc will not search /usr/local/lib, etc.
* build-fix for Xaw3d configuration (report by H Merijn Brand).
* update config.guess, config.sub
* Wed Feb 16 2011 pcerny@novell.com
- Patch #268 - 2011/02/10
* fix an inconsistency of the "Enable Reverse Video" checkbox in the VT
Options menu. This also removes a special case added in patch #217 which
limited the effect of the reverseVideo resource (Debian #603808).
* amend decoding of misformed UTF-8 sequences to avoid absorbing valid
characters as documented in Unicode 6.0 section 3.9 (report by Keith
Winstein).
* do not set urgency hint when window already has focus (patch by Dimitrios
Christidis).
* amend extended mouse-coordinate mode from patch #262 changes to include the
Cb button-code, which also may be greater than 127 (report by Ailin Nemui).
* ensure that underline-cursor is visible when an application happens to set
the background color (report by Christian Weisgerber).
* add feature for full-screen toggling using either Alt-Enter or a menu
selection (integrated patch by Dave Simmons).
* add missing logic to handle reallocation of FIFO index for the "UTF-8" menu
entry (report by David Holland, NetBSD #44344).
* add makefile rules docs-ctlseqs, docs-xterm, etc.
* correct typo in description of DECRPM in control sequences document (report
by Ailin Nemui).
- Patch #267 - 2010/11/20
* minor formatting changes to ctlseqs.ms to simplify a script which extracts
the feature information. See the results in Comparing versions, by counting
controls in the xterm FAQ.
* add docs-clean makefile rule.
* add copy-selection action (request by Timo Juhani Lindfors, Debian #588785).
* trim leading/trailing blanks from string used for "Selection" font-menu
data.
* trim leading/trailing blanks from color resource values.
* configure script improvements:
o add workaround for removal of X11 dependency from Xt's package file
(report by Robert Hooker).
o add workaround for removal of fontconfig dependency from Xft's package
file (report by Jeremy Huddleston).
o add workaround for removal of Xmu dependency from Xaw's package file
(report by Jeremy Huddleston).
o improve workaround in CF_X_TOOLKIT macro, checking for other possible
packages where Xt's dependencies may be given.
o prefer ${name:=value} to ${name-value}, since recent bash changes break
legacy support for that feature.
- Patch #266 - 2010/10/24
* add rpm and dpkg scripts, for testing.
* more fixes for Debian #600707 (report by Cyril Brulebois).
- Patch #265 - 2010/10/22
* fix a regression in fontname logic from patch #263 changes (Debian #600707,
reported by Vincent Lefevre).
* revert modification of any-event/any-button protocol from patch #263
changes. It interferes with selection using a shifted mouse button (reports
by Neil Bird, Bram Moolenaar).
* Fri Oct 15 2010 meissner@suse.de
- Patch #264 - 2010/10/14
* replace a null-pointer check with check for empty string in
xtermOpenFont, to eliminate a warning message from patch #263 changes.
* build-fix for patch #263 when toolbar is not configured (patch by
Chris Clayton) (reports by Robby Workman, David Wood).
- Patch #263 - 2010/10/13
* corrected initialization of "misc" resource values, to ensure that
xterm has allocated a copy of strings which may not have been malloc'd
by the X library (Debian #600129).
* modify handling of any-event/any-button mouse protocol; it now is
active with any combination of key-modifiers.
* add debugging feature showWrapMarks, which marks lines which xterm
knows are wrapped, showing where a double-click will select past the
end of a line.
* build-fix to address change in include-guards for Xlib.h in ongoing
Xorg edits (patch by Jeremy Huddleston).
* improve pointerMode by continuing to watch for motion events after
mouse tracking is disabled if the pointer is hidden (Debian #594856).
* further extend initialization for active-icon font to check if the
font was not loaded succesfully, to retry with font1, or as even
(if TrueType fonts are used) to use a TrueType font. The retries
are to help with cases as in patch #241 where the bitmap fonts are
not available.
* fix special case of active-icon used when TrueType font is specified
for the xterm window, from patch #261 change. In that case, the
default font's size was used for layout of the active icon's window
(Debian #591265).
- Patch #262 - 2010/8/30
* fix a case where changing the cursor color via escape sequences did
not immediately update the screen (report by Andreas Wagner).
* implement ANSI and DEC request-mode control sequences. The latter
includes the xterm-specific private modes such as the mouse mode. The
feature is ifdef'd with the rectangle operations since its decoding
overlaps that feature.
* correct typo in ctlseqs.ms for response of OSC 21 (patch by Kevin Schoedel).
* improve discussion of mouse tracking in ctlseqs.ms
* increase an array limit used in reporting mouse events (report by Ryan Johnson).
* add extended mouse-coordinates mode, allowing up to 2015x2015 windows,
using UTF-8 encoding (patch by Ryan Johnson).
* modify manpage hyphens to conform with Debian.
- Patch #261 - 2010/6/28
* fix regression in renderFont logic, from patch #260 changes (report
by Joseph Quinsey).
- Patch #260 - 2010/6/20
* modify plink.sh to work around problem linking to recent PCRE libraries.
* extend renderFont resource to allow deferred switch to TrueType
fonts without affecting existing resource settings (Debian #585620).
* modify configure macro CF_X_TOOLKIT to work around omission of ICE
library from ".pc" file (report by Miroslav Lichvar).
* change configure script default for --enable-broken-st i.e., the
brokenStringTerm feature) to normally enable it. If the corresponding
resource is enabled, this feature eliminates an apparent freeze of
xterm when sending mis-encoded data to the screen (Debian #584801).
* document in manpage some actions which were overlooked:
o readline-button
o scroll-lock
o set-8-bit-control
* undo a change to limit-check in ScrnRefresh in patch #257, which
broke fastScroll feature (Debian #584841).
* modify handling of brokenLinuxOSC and brokenStringTerm to also sound
the bell.
* add control/D and control/Q to controls which will cause early exit
from control string per brokenStringTerm resource.
* improve documentation of brokenStringTerm resource in manpage.
- Patch #259 - 2010/6/5
* modify configure check for luit to include new aliases for the program
(xterm-filter and bluit).
* add workaround in xtermClearLEDs() to account for Xkb's override,
making vttest's LED demo reset the scroll lock.
* filter out client-message events when deciding whether to hide cursor,
e.g., when using SCIM (patch/report by anonymous user).
* improve description of -bd option in manpage (report by Guy Daniel Clotilde).
* modify configure checks for PCRE and other libraries to use pkg-config, if available.
* amend change from patch #252, to take veryColorColors resource into
account when checking colorBDMode resource for TrueType fonts (report
by anonymous user).
* add vttests/query-fonts.pl script for demonstrating the OSC 50 font query.
* improve manpage discussion of Scroll Lock feature.
* improve configure macros CF_GCC_VERSION and CF_GCC_WARNINGS.
* fix warnings for "clang --analyze".
* change default for allowScrollLock resource to false, noting that
the supposedly unused key has been useful for various rebindings
(Debian #580946).
- Patch #258 - 2010/5/1
* add pointer-checks in ScrnRefresh to fix a case in rapid scrolling
where an empty record is fetched from the scrollback FIFO.
- Patch #257 - 2010/4/22
* correct ctlseqs.ms description of OSC 17 and OSC 19 (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
* corrected logic for menuLocale resource; the setlocale function
returns the original locale only when querying.
* improve filtering of translations resource, narrowing the scope of
the alwaysUseMods to address only the translations that would cause
a key to be sent to the host (report by Andrew Gaylard).
* change default value of menuLocale resource to "C", to work around
longstanding Xorg bug.
* modify handling of scrollKey feature to ignore XON/XOFF keys.
* implement scroll-lock feature.
* revise memory allocation in UTF8toLatin1() to fix an out-of-bounds
index (Mandriva #54531).
* compute value for first wide-character rather than assuming it is
256, fixes problem with -cjk_width introduced in patches 242 and 249
(report by Thomas Wolff).
* improve configure script:
o corrected check for _XOPEN_SOURCE for OpenSolaris.
o when possible, add rpath option for libraries in unusual places
o add configure option --disable-rpath-hack to control whether the rpath option can be added.
* modify AllocateTermColor() to separate initialization from control
sequences, fixing problem from patch #254 changes where enabling
allowSendEvents resource prevents setting cursor color on command-line
(Debian #572928).
* amend logic from patch #185 to not reallocate cell-array if processing
ESC % G to switch from UTF-8 if already in ISO-8859-1 character set
(report by Michael Koehne).
* fix to avoid calling XmuInternStrings() with zero count (report by Johan Bockgård).
* fix build when --disable-ansi-color configure option is used.
* fix build when neither OPT_TCAP_QUERY or OPT_TCAP_FKEYS is defined
(patch by Matthieu Herrb)
- Patch #256 - 2010/3/6
* add TerminalEmulator to desktop category files.
* modify sinstall.sh to ignore the "." appended to permissions by selinux.
* change app-defaults organization, installing UXTerm-color and
KOI8XTerm-color for consistent behavior regarding customization: color
(prompted by discussion in Ubuntu #421261).
* fix typo in minstall.sh from patch #255 changes, and add case for
/var/run needed for full path of utmp (report by Julien Cristau).
* minor fix to xterm manpage, remove a comment stating that margin bell
can be changed via the VT Options menu. That was replaced in patch #225
* add a "docs" rule to makefile.
* fix initialization of Atom used for XkbBell feature from patch 243
changes. Unlike the other calls to XInternAtom(), in this case the
flag telling X to create the Atom was unset (patch by Chris Adams).
* Thu Sep 09 2010 aj@suse.de
- BuildRequire utempter-devel
* Sat Feb 13 2010 jslaby@suse.de
- Patch #255 - 2010/1/21
* rename install.sh to install-sh in case suffix-rules might interfere.
* extend range for convertToUTF8 function to full 31-bits, to use with
printing, etc.
* improve manpage by checking for actual locations of utmp/wtmp files
(Debian #562640).
* modify configure macro CF_XOPEN_SOURCE to remove -D's before adding the
same name rather than relying on -U's, to reduce redefinition warnings
for some platforms that have conflicting definitions in headers.
* correct logic used to switch to alternate screen using FIFO-lines
configuration (Debian #565772).
* update config.guess, config.sub
* Fri Jan 15 2010 meissner@suse.de
- Patch #254 - 2010/1/6
* add a configure-check to eliminate install-ti rule from Makefile
when the system has no tic (terminfo compiler) program. This lets
one use the install-full rule more consistently.
* amend change to WriteText() function in patch #252 to take into
account the colorAttrMode resource (report by Krzysztof Kotlenga).
* document titleModes resource in manpage, added in patch #252.
* modify tcap-query table entries for shifted up/down cursor keys
to match ncurses convention.
* improve lookup of termcap-query data, allowing for duplicate
keycodes versus missing entries.
* add control sequence which can be used to modify the terminal data
used for the termcap-keyboard.
* improve portability of tcap-query feature, using terminfo functions
in preference to termcap on systems having terminfo.
* improve font-setting/querying control (OSC 50):
o when TrueType font is selected, the TrueType faceName will
be set, rather than the bitmap font.
o when TrueType font is selected, querying returns the name
of the TrueType font.
o querying a font recognizes the relative-font convention that
setting a font could use.
* add menu-entry for allowColorOps.
* add new resources for fine-tuning menu entries: allowColorOps,
disallowedColorOps, disallowedFontOps and disallowedTcapOps.
* correct logic for disabling the "TrueType Fonts" menu item; it
was not ensuring that the faceName resource value was non-empty.
* implement VT520-style controls DECSMBV and DECSWBV for setting
the margin- and warning-bell volume.
* fix a minor error from patch #243 which made the zIconBeep feature
use a minor-error tone rather than an informational tone.
* add a null-pointer check for the case where renderFont resource is
true, but faceName resource is unset, used in logic to strip "xft:"
prefix from patch #251 changes (patch by Michael Riepe).
* add special case to configure CF_XOPEN_SOURCE macro to use
extensions on Darwin (patch by Dennis Preiser).
* improve configure checks for regular expressions header and library
* update config.guess, config.sub
- Patch #253 - 2009/12/10
* add a null-pointer check in getPrinterFlags() per changes in patch #252.
* add a null-pointer check, needed in UTF-8 mode for Xft fonts after
changes in patch #252 (patch by Alan Coopersmith).
* correct size when clearing struct for tek4014 (patch by Jochen Voss).
* parenthesize expression in MoreRows macro, fixing a limit check
added in patch #251 (Debian #560039).
- Patch #252 - 2009/12/7
* modify title-querying logic to support retrieval of titles encoded using UTF-8.
* add new "title-modes" control sequence for controlling whether
window/icon titles can be set or queried using UTF-8, optionally
encoded in a hexadecimal string.
* use mkdir -p rather than mkdirs.sh (prompted by discussion of mawk
by Aleksey Cheusov).
* add appropriate copyright/license notices to the bulk of files
lacking same, and modify to use identical terms in others which used
different wording. The main exceptions are the files contributed
by Markus Kuhn, who appears to prefer public domain distribution,
noting that I have modified/improved several of these without
changing the terms of distribution (request by Jari Aalto).
* add control sequences for resetting the "dynamic" colors to their
default values.
* add control sequences for resetting the "special" colors to their
default values.
* add control sequences for setting the "special" colors such as
colorBD (bold).
* add overlooked case for setting highlight foreground color with
the dynamic-colors control.
* add OSC 104, for resetting ANSI/16/88/256 colors to default.
* reset ANSI/16/88/256 colors to default in soft/hard reset functions.
* strip "xft:" prefix from faceName and faceNameDoublesize resource values,
* add DECSCUSR (discussion with Andy Koppe).
* add check/warning on failure to load font, to see if the name looks
like an Xft pattern rather than XLFD. This can happen if someone
happens to modify their X resource settings for programs that read
data from xterm's namespace.
* modify handling of print and print-everything actions to allow
the various printer flags to be overridden by supplying parameters.
* add resource printerNewLine (request by Ovidiu Gheorghioiu).
* minor cleanup, finish using TScreenOf() and TekScreenOf() macros introduced in patch #224.
* improve checks in ShowCursor/HideCursor to get the background color,
particularly when highlightReverse resource is used (reports by
Jan Engelhardt, Christian Weisgerber).
* correct checkVeryBoldAttr to omit comparison of foreground color
to special color values used for color<XX> resources (report by
Jan Engelhardt).
* make colorBDMode and colorULMode resources work with TrueType
configuration (report by Jan Engelhardt).
- Patch #251 - 2009/11/11
* add window-ops controls to push/pop icon and/or window labels on a stack.
* minor fixes to align termcap file with terminfo.
* add resource disallowedWindowOps, to allow fine-tuning of features
to suppress with the allowWindowOps resource (prompted by discussion
with Bram Moolenaar).
* add makefile rules for resize-manpage to pdf, etc.
* further improve limit-checks in select/paste (Mandriva #54531).
- Patch #250 - 2009/10/13
* add check and error-message for fonts that have no printable values
in the ISO-8859-1 range (Debian #542434).
* some compiler-warning cleanup, in particular workaround for
defective implementation of gcc's attribute warn_unused_result
(report by Bram Moolenaar).
* improve estimate of single-column width for packed TrueType fonts
by ignoring extents for codes 127 and 159.
* improve line-drawing for TrueType fonts which happen to have defined
glyphs which are not line-drawing in 0..31 by assuming they're not,
and just checking the existence of the Unicode codepoints. This
makes it more likely that the user can override a misconfigured
font using the "Line-Drawing Characters" menu entry.
* limit minimum cell-width for packed font to maximum-advance reported
by Xft. Some fonts are wider than that, even in the Latin-1 range
(Debian #550497).
* add list of direct-contributors in "THANKS" file.
* stylistic changes to this file to help scripted extraction of list
of contributors.
* correct off-by-one in okPosition fix from patch #249 limit-checks
which prevented double-click selection on the bottom line of the
screen (reports by Rajeev V. Pillai, Debian #550368).
* add -q option to vttest/256colors2.pl and vttest/88colors2.pl to
demonstrate bulk initialization of color palette.
* improve the workaround from patch #188 by enabling resources for
the 88-color model.
* document in xterm manpage the limited availability of resources
color16 to color255 as noted in patch #188 (Ubuntu #438850).
- Patch #249 - 2009/10/1
* change default for allowWindowOps resource to false.
* add limit-checks for result of visual_width() function, needed
from patch #242 and exposed by #244 changes (Debian #548321).
* improve limit-checks in select/paste.
* fix a remaining bug from patch #230 changes for displaying
multi-column characters in a proportional font (report by Chris
Jones).
* add new resource forcePackedFont and menu entry "Packed Font" to
control whether to use the font's minimum (default) or maximum width
when those differ. The workaround which xterm uses to accommodate
proportional fonts is not necessary with certain fonts such as
unifont which happen to store a mixture of multicolumn glyphs
(report by Chris Jones).
* fix an (old) bug which did not restart the timer for blinking
text if the only blinking text was temporarily scrolled out of view,
e.g., using the scrollbar.
* fix an (old) flaw in the delete-line operation where the text
which is scrolled into view while the display is scrolled up was
not repainted.
* improve delete-line and insert-line operations, retaining selection
when the selection does not intersect the deleted/inserted lines.
* fix an (old) off-by-one error when an application cleared above
the cursor position while the display was scrolled up, that would
leave an extra line of text uncleared.
* fix a similar problem where the double-size attribute would not
be reset when clearing the screen while the display was scrolled up.
* fix an indexing error which would occur if an application cleared
a line while the display was scrolled up and was also in UTF-8 mode
(Redhat #524503). The error was from patch #228 but more visible
after changes from patch #244.
- Patch #248 - 2009/9/11
* fix an overlooked adjustment for selecting double-width characters
in the narrow-character configuration.
* eliminate uses of XTERM_CELL and XTERM_CELLC where an appropriate
LineData pointer is available.
* correct expression in okScrnRow macro, making selections give the
length of lines below the visible screen (report by Stuart Henderson).
* correct logic used to improve performance of missing-glyph check,
which did not handle line-drawing characters (Debian #545220).
- Patch #247 - 2009/8/30
* add ifdef's and check for openpty() on DragonFly (patch by Alex
Hornung).
* correct calculation for size of line's data block, which was
sometimes off-by-one when configured using --enable-16bit-chars
(report by H Merijn Brand).
* fix indexing error in print-everything feature from patch #246
(patch by Ovidiu Gheorghioiu).
- Patch #246 - 2009/8/16
* remove obsolete logic for saving/restoring wrapping flags, which did
not work on 64-bit platform. Wrapping flags (stored in the
line-index) are now copied with line-data (Debian #541160).
* modify comments in app-defaults files to avoid problem with C
preprocessor used by xrdb (Debian #541603).
* restore special case in makeColorPair, needed for colorBDMode
resource (Debian #541089).
* correct SetLineFlags() macro, broken in patch #244 when recoding
to avoid gcc-specific bitfields (Debian #541236).
* modify initialization of screen buffers to ensure that pointers
align to int-boundaries. This fixes a problem introduced in patch
[#244] where the color- and character-arrays (stored after the
video-attributes in each row) might be misaligned (report by Rajeev
V Pillai).
* add limit-check in ScrnRefresh for handling saved-lines from the
circular buffer which are repainted on a screen whose width has
increased. To improve performance, circular buffer entries are
not resized (report by Rajeev V Pillai).
* correct type for CellColor (a late change in patch #244 to avoid
gcc-specifc enums made that unsigned rather than unsigned short,
for the 256-color option).
* fix typo in configure option --enable-16bit-chars (report by Rajeev
V. Pillai).
- Patch #245 - 2009/8/12
* correct a special case in saving FIFO-lines from patch #244. If
the screen was shrunk, xterm used the wrong amount for copying to
FIFO-lines, and then used this amount to adjust the current row
on the screen. That was both a visible defect (Debian #541109)
as well as a potential addressing error (Debian #541132, #541160,
and #541236).
* add clarification in xterm manual about the various allowXXXOps
resources, which are disabled when the allowSendEvents resource
is active (patch by Julien Cristau, Debian #531597).
- Patch #244 - 2009/8/9
* refactored storage of saved-lines, providing a configure
option to manage them as a FIFO (actually a circular buffer),
improving performance. Added configure option --enable-fifo-lines
to enable/disable the new feature (it is enabled by default).
* added fastScroll resource, to amuse people who measure terminal
emulator performance by cat'ing large files to the screen.
* modify check in readPtyData from return values to provide exit
on zero-bytes read from pty for FreeBSD, or eliminate high-CPU
in "xterm-hold" processing (discussion with Ulrich Spoerlein,
FreeBSD ports/136686). The check was originally modified to combine
negative/zero values in XFree86-3.1.2E, 1996/05/06.
* add configure option --enable-16bit-chars to provide wide-characters
with 1account whether they are double-width (report by Guilbert
Stabilo on comp.unix.shell).
* add capability for keypad-center (kb2/KA2) to termcap entry
for xterm-new, as well as xterm-8bit, xterm-sun and xterm-vt220
(FreeBSD conf/136336).
* change default for keepSelection resource to true (prompted by
discussion with David Muir Sharnoff).
* remove a limit-check in ptydata.c, allowing Unicode values past
64k to be displayed using TrueType fonts (Debian #458432).
* remove a vt52-specific ifdef to allow mapping F1-F4 to PF1-PF4
when vt52 support is not compiled (report by Olaf 'Rhialto' Seibert).
* save/restore line-wrapping flags when converting from ISO-8859-1
encoding to UTF-8 encoding, as well as when resizing screen.
* remove extra adjustment of position in fix for Debian #418324.
* modify default check for mkWidth resource to check for line-drawing
characters, which are categorized as double-width in Solaris 10
(report by Sebastian Kayser).
* add "print-everything" action (patch by Ovidiu Gheorghioiu).
* start refactoring scrollback data using new getLineData() function.
* demote recent change to Debian #252873 fix to experimental,
ifdef'd out as EXP_BOGUS_FG (Debian #522141).
* work around groff mapping of ASCII quotes using macros (requested
by Reuben Thomas based on Colin Watson advice, fixes Debian #378700).
* correct symbol used for default of allowWindowOps which was
DEF_ALLOW_FONT rather than DEF_ALLOW_WINDOW (report by Matthieu
Herrb).
* amend fix for tek4014 from patch #243 to make it only apply to
the Tek Options menu.
Patch #243 - 2009/3/28
* revert change to default for allowTcapOps (request by Bram Moolenaar).
* reallocate result returned by xtermEnvLocale() to avoid reference
to freed memory after handling menuLocale resource.
* fix an old (X11R5) bug in tek4014 for switching fontsizes.
* add resource defaultString to make configurable the use of "#"
when pastes of UTF-8 text fail due to limitations in the current
locale settings.
* make the set of selection target Atom's configurable by two new
resources eightBitSelectTypes and utf8SelectTypes, e.g., to use the
TEXT Atom in preference to UTF8_STRING (discussion with Stanislav
Sedov regarding koi8rxterm and the FreeBSD port).
* modify handling of TARGETS Atom by making it return exactly the
set of targets as those which xterm is currently providing.
* set MANPAGER and PAGER explicitly to /bin/cat in minstall.sh
to work around /etc/man.conf's with those variables already set
(report by Марьясин Семён).
* improve error-checking of tcap-query parser.
* add check for keyboard tcap), which ensures that terminal
descriptions containing the same string for shifted/unshifted keys
will be seen by tcap-query as only the unshifted key. (This would
only happen with an incorrect terminal description).
* fix conversion for input event-state to modifier-parameter which
made tcap-query feature not work with tcapFunctionKeys (keyboard
type tcap).
* add "DEF_ALLOW_XXX" definitions to main.h to allow overriding the
default compiled-in values for "allowxxx" resources.
* remove check on bell-percentage added in patch #242, which
disallowed zero/negative values (Redhat Bugzilla #487829).

- updated to release xterm-242
* fix configure check for XkbBell and provide appropriate parameter
for it.
* fix a caching problem with double-size fonts versus reverse video
that could cause core dump.
* repair double-size fonts from workaround used in [246]patch #240.
* add new section to the VT Fonts menu which allows enabling or
disabling the font, termcap (tcap-query), title and window operations.
* add fontWarnings resource, to control whether to show warnings on
failure to load a font.
* improve warnings for unloadable fonts introduced in [247]patch #240
by limiting those to the cases where a font would be specified
directly by a resource setting rather than a derived fontname.
* further amend fix for Debian #252873 from [248]patch #197 to treat
a blank cell which does not have both foreground and background
colored as a non-colored cell. This improves a special case where
the cursor is on a blank cell which had foreground color scrolled
in (report by Miroslav Lichvar).
Also add the same logic when hiding cursor, so the outline matches
the in-focus cursor.
* modify internals to reduce places PAIRED_CHARS() is used, making
WriteText() and ScrnWriteText() accept IChar array, as well as
providing a wrapper for drawXtermText().
* change default XIM font from "*" to "fixed" to improve startup time
in zh_CN.UTF-8 locale (Mike Fabian, bnc#464930).
* Tue Feb 03 2009 meissner@suse.de
- updated to release xterm-241
* improve checks for missing bitmap fonts, fallback to "fixed" as
needed to work around broken font-packages (report by Jacek Luczak).
* fix breakage from patch #240 changes for xtermAddInput() (patches
by Jeff Chua, Julien Cristau).
- updated to release xterm-240
* use plink.sh for linking xterm (suggested by Larry Doolittle).
* add resource descriptions for input method to xterm manpage.
* update configure script; consistently append to $CFLAGS rather
than prepend.
* add install-scripts rule to makefile, to allow roi8xterm and uxterm
scripts to be altered independently of install-bin
* add -maximized command-line option and corresponding resource
(prompted by alt.os.linux newsgroup comment).
* modify translations of scrollbar widget using xtermAddInput() (see
patch #181) to accept the actions that the vt100 widget accepts, such as
shift-insert to perform a paste operation (request by Martin Zwickel).
* change default for allowTcapsOps resource to false, since it causes
unexpected behavior for vim users with AltGr.
* Thu Jan 29 2009 mfabian@suse.de
- bnc#464930: change the default for the ximFont resource from "*"
to "fixed", this still works fine with the XIM servers "scim"
and "kinput2" and speeds up the startup time of xterm
dramatically in zh_CN.UTF-8 and zh_HK.UTF-8 locales.
* Tue Jan 13 2009 meissner@suse.de
- update to release xterm-239
* correct a cast in input.c, which broke translation of numeric
keypad codes to pageup, pagedown, etc., on 64-bit platform (Debian
[#511138], report by Larry Doolittle).
* Mon Jan 05 2009 meissner@suse.de

locale, to work with locales such as Turkish (report by M Vefa
Bicakci).
[#] turn on configure paste64 feature by default (request by Jean-Philippe
Bernardy). It is runtime enabled/disabled with allowWindowOps.

[#] some code cleanup based on gcc 4.x -Wconversion warnings in button.c
and charproc.c
[#] modify tcap-query feature to not return data for shifted cursor-keys
when the keyboard type is set to vt220, since returning the same
string for shifted/unshifted keys may confuse some applications
(GenToo #212546).
- Patch #237 - 2008/09/14
[#] improve usability of TrueType fonts by making the font-size switching
for shifted keypad plus/minus use the faceSize resources to determine
the order of fonts (when TrueType fonts are used) rather than the
bitmap fonts, since their sizes may not be in the same order (report
by H Merijn Brand)
[#] remove an optimization of ConfigureNotify events from patch #236
which seems to interfere with passing SIGWINCH to applications
(GenToo #233836).
[#] modify handling of altSendsEscape to reset the eightBitInput mode,
like metaSendsEscape (patch by Ted Phelps).
[#] add feature to show the text-cursor as an underline rather than a box,
plus command-line options -uc and +uc and resource cursorUnderLine to
control the feature (patch by Paul Lampert).
[#] update config.guess, config.sub
* Mon Jul 28 2008 sndirsch@suse.de

* add resource formatOtherKeys to provide an alternate escape
sequence format for the modifyOtherKeys resource (request by
Paul LeoNerd Evans).
* adjust saved-cursor position if the window is resized while
displaying the alternate screen (Novell #196880, Debian
[#383384]).
* improve pointer-checks to fix a bug exposed by resizing during
initialization under StumpWM window manager (Fedora Bugzilla
[#437928]).

Huddleston).
* add dylib to autoconf's suffix list used for checking the result
from xmkmf, to work with Mac OS X (report by Jeremy Huddleston).

when the 10x20 font is used.
- bzip2 source tarball.
* Mon Aug 27 2007 sndirsch@suse.de
- added '*metaSendsEscape: true' to app defaults (Bug #300331)
* Mon Aug 13 2007 sndirsch@suse.de

not work in UTF-8 locale (report by Zdenek Sekera).
* undo an incorrect fix for a memory leak in [234]patch #209
(Debian #435858).

* Tue Jul 24 2007 mfabian@suse.de
- update to xterm-228.
* modify configure script to permit combining --with-utempter and
- -enable-setuid, e.g., for using xterm with the utempter library
on FreeBSD (report by Andriy Gapon).
* modify "Quit" menu entry to override the -hold command-line
option.
* add a check in the startup error-reporting to avoid writing to
pipe when it has not been opened. In that case, report errors
directly to the standard error.
* add OPT_READLINE definition to xtermcfg.hin, overlooked in
[232]patch #205 (report by Kalle Olavi Niemitalo).
* modify 88colors2.pl and 256colors2.pl, adding -r option to reverse
the palettes for the extended colors.
* check for partial overwrite or deletion of multi-column characters
in several cases, e.g., insert-character, delete-character, etc.,
and fill the remainder of the cells used by the multi-column
characters affected with blanks.
* correct character-class codes in wide-character mode for
characters 215, 247 (see also [233]patch #165).
* fix missing assignment for UTF-8 parsing in widget initialization
(Debian #403360).
* correct index expression used to set line-wrapping flag, making
selection from scrollback work consistently (Debian #430121,
report by Vincent Lefevre).
* amend changes to handshake in [234]patch #226 to accommodate
Solaris, which relies on the extra setting of the terminal size
after I/O initialization. Do this by adding new resource
ptySttySize, which is false for Linux and MacOS X, i.e., true for
for Solaris and other SVR4 platforms, as well as FreeBSD (reports
by David Wood, Renato Botelho).
* check for X events after cursor-left, and carriage return,
consistent with indexing operations (comments by Vegard Nossum and
Ingo Molnar on a mailing-list).
* initialize the .keyboard structure, needed for some platforms
(such as Solaris) after [235]patch #227 fixes for keysyms (patch
by David Wood).
* update config.guess, config.sub
- Bugzilla #293793: avoid requiring the an iso8859* version of
adobe-helvetica for the menus. The menus are ASCII only anyway at
the moment, it doesn't matter at all whether a Unicode font
(iso10646-1) or any of the iso8859* fonts is used, they are all
identical in the ASCII region anyway.
Using the iso* wildcard makes xterm work even if the recoded
versions of the bitmap fonts are missing in a minimal installation
and only the Unicode versions are there.
* Thu Jul 12 2007 werner@suse.de
- no longer overwrite translation for the key ALT, use altIsNotMeta
to leave it for users choise using Meta or Alt mode (bug #262330)
- add snooper to the sources which enables to seek for character
sequences used by e.g. xterm in Alt mode (bug #262330)
* Mon Jul 09 2007 sndirsch@suse.de
- no longer package /usr/share/pixmaps to fix build
* Sat Jun 30 2007 sndirsch@suse.de

in rewrite for patch #224 (report by Adam Sulmicki).
(Bug #283984)
* Thu Mar 29 2007 dmueller@suse.de
- add ncurses-devel BuildRequires
* Sat Mar 24 2007 sndirsch@suse.de
- Patch #225 - 2007/3/24:
* add useClipping resource to allow clipping to be disabled.
* use XftDrawSetClipRectangles to work around Xft pixel-trash
(report by Reuben Thomas).
* add configure option --enable-tcap-fkeys, and resource
tcapFunctionKeys, which can be used to tell xterm to use
function-key definitions from the termcap (or terminfo) which it
uses to set $TERM on startup.
* add resources altIsNotMeta and altSendsEscape to allow one to use
Alt-keys like the meta-key even if they are bound to different
keycodes (prompted by discussion with Daniel Jacobowitz).
* revert a change from [229]patch #216 that unnecessarily made the
meta modifier override the eightBitInput resource if the alt- and
meta-modifiers happened to overlap (report/patch by Daniel
Jacobowitz).
* correct associated font for active icon for colored text (broken
in [230]patch #224).
* correct ifdef's for Darwin (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
* add highlightTextColor resource, and options -selfg, -selbg like
xwsh (adapted from patch by Victor Vaile).
* revise find_closest_color() function to address concern about
borrowing from Tcl/Tk (request by Dan McNichol).
* add "spawn-new-terminal" action, which can be assigned to key
translation, allowing one to spawn a new copy of xterm using the
current process' working directory (adapted from patch by Daniel
Colascio).
* improve select/paste between UTF-8 and Latin1 xterms by adapting
the translations from [231]patch #185. Extend that to include
Unicode fullwidth forms FF00-FF5E. Also modify select/paste of DEC
line-drawing characters in Latin1 mode to use ASCII characters.
* add "Enable Bell Urgency" to VT Options menu, removed "Enable
Margin Bell".
* add bellIsUrgent resource to control whether the Urgency hint is
set/reset.
* modify to set Urgency window manager hint on bell, reset it on
Focus-In event (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
* add --disable-setgid configure option (request by Miroslav
Lichvar).
* fix a possible infinite loop in last change to dabbrev-expand()
(patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
* modify initialization to set the pty erase value if the erase is
set in the ttyModes resource. This overrides the ptyInitialErase
setting (request by Lluis Batlle i Rossell).
* add initialFont resource to xterm widget, like tek-widget (Debian
[#299669]).
* amend change to boldMode from [232]patch #223 for Debian #347790.
As noted in Debian #412599, that made xterm no longer match the
documented behavior. Add new resource alwaysBoldMode to allow
overriding the comparison between normal/bold fonts when deciding
whether to use overstriking to simulate bold fonts.
* restore background color in ClearCurBackground(), omitted in
changes for [233]patch #223 (report by Miroslav Lichvar).
* correct logic for repainting double-width TrueType characters
(prompted by test-case for Novell #246573).
* add a check to avoid trying to repeat a multibyte character
(report by Sami Farin).
* modify parameter to XftNameParse() to select wide face-name as
needed, to make -fd option work (patch by Mike Fabian, Novell
[#246573]).
* correct logic for mouse highlight tracking's abort sequence,
broken in a restructuring modification from [234]patch #224
(report by Thomas Wolff).
* revert the simplification of blinking cursor, since that broke the
xor'ing introduced in [235]patch #193 (report by Thomas Wolff).
- obsoletes xterm-224i.patch
* Thu Mar 22 2007 mfabian@suse.de
- add ftp://invisible-island.net/temp/xterm-224i.patch
(obsoletes fix-fd_option.diff and fixes the redraw problems
for double width characters mentioned in bug #246573).
- adapt patch a little bit to make it build with --with-utempter.
* Mon Feb 26 2007 sndirsch@suse.de
- bug-246573-tentative-patch.diff:
* simplify algorithm for verifying that a font contains double
width characters (Bug #246573, comment #53/54)
* Wed Feb 21 2007 sndirsch@suse.de
- fix-fd_option.diff:
* finally fixes double-width support (Bug #246573)
* Sat Feb 17 2007 sndirsch@suse.de
- enabled double-width support; switched to configure (Bug #246573)
* Mon Feb 12 2007 sndirsch@suse.de
- updated to xterm-224 (2007/02/11)
* simplify code for set/reset mode for blinking cursor (patch by
Emanuele Giaquinta).
* modify dabbrev-expand() to restart after the last match (patch by
Emanuele Giaquinta).
* add control sequences for enabling/disabling focus in/out event
reporting (request by Bram Moolenaar).
* improve startup performance of menus by adding resource setting
menuLocale which can be set to override X's lengthy initialization
of fontsets - which are seldom used for the Xaw popup menus
(adapted by patch by Dave Coffin).
* modify do_precomposition() function and make-compose.sh to handle
21-bit codes vs the 16-bit codes those were written for, and fix a
few mis-sorted codes (patch by Thomas Wolff).
* handle special case in -cjk_width which unexpectedly caused a
character's width to change when a combining character (patch by
Thomas Wolff)
* fix build for GNU/KFreeBSD (Debian #40111).
* consolidate GC creation/updating into a single module to reduce GC
manipulation (prompted by Debian #389476, though a complete fix
would involve optimizing the scrolling behavior).
* fix ifdef of xtermCellWidth(), which broke for a case without
TrueType and without wide-character support (report by Martin
Pirker).
* undo a comparison in handle_translated_exposure which did not work
due to X server optimization. That caused the inner border to be
repainted with unexpected colors when handling a repaint, e.g.,
after switching to/from another workspace (Debian #401726, Redhat
Bugzilla #223027).
* allow -cr option to override cursor color when -ah option is used
(Debian #406502).
* add a note in xterm's manpage explaining that the -bw (or -w)
option is only used by the window manager, if at all (Debian
[#405043]).
* make Selection of VT Fonts work with selectToClipboard resource.
* correct length calculation for Selection entry of VT Fonts menu,
broken since it ignored the actual selection length since X11R4.
* fixes for fontsize changes with -fa option (Redhat Bugzilla
[#222340]).
* Fri Dec 01 2006 sndirsch@suse.de
- updated to xterm-223 (2006/11/30)
* add --enable-rectangles configure option (request by Martin
Pirker).
* correct default value for --with-symlink configure option.
* fixes configure script macros that use $X_EXTRA_LIBS.
* modify configure script to provide support for pre-package config
versions of Xft (FreeType).
* add the Xaw scrollbar translations resource to the xterm manpage,
add an example showing how to change the mouse button assignments
(Debian #382225).
* amend a change from [227]patch #216, which omitted modifiers for
control, meta, etc., if they were mixed with any other modifiers.
The intent of the change was to avoid confusion with
XK_Mode_switch and XK_ISO_Level3_Shift; the check is now done
explicitly (report by Daniel Jacobowitz).
* interpret a negative value for modifyCursorKeys or
modifyFunctionKeys resources to disable the respective features
(prompted by Novell #220728).
* amend cell-width computation for FreeType from [228]patch #217,
which did not work for VT100 line-drawing characters (Debian
[#399638], GenToo #147111).
* amend a change from [229]patch #216, which made alt-modifier on a
cursor-key send a modifier parameter (Novell #220728).
* correct an off-by-one that made DECCRA not work (report/patch by
Martin Pirker).
* revert an optimization in SGR_Foreground() and SGR_Background from
[230]patch #209 (Debian #347722, analysis by Pierre Lombard).
* fix for boldMode (Debian #347790, patch by Tim Pope).
* amend fix for -iconic in [231]patch #208, which broke the
positioning part of -geom with toolbar configuration.
* fix to prevent indexing error in regular expressions (patch by
Dennis Schneider).
* fixes to make the internalBorder area not change color due to
reverseVideo and/or related exposure events. The latter was a very
old bug exposed in [232]patch #196 (report by Neil Hoggarth, also
Debian #397624).
- obsoletes bug220728.diff
* Tue Nov 28 2006 sndirsch@suse.de
- bug220728.diff:
* Essentially the problem reported is that xterm #216 does a more
complete job of applying modifier parameters to cursor-,
function- and other keys. Some users would like to disable the
feature. Patch to allow modifyCursorKeys to be disabled.
Currently the resource accepts values 0 to 3. This adds a -1 to
disable the feature. Most users won't want to do this.
(Bug #220728)
* Wed Oct 18 2006 sndirsch@suse.de
- updated to xterm-222
* minor optimization for recoloring cursor via dynamic colors.
* fix a bug caused by restructuring of tek4014 widget
(report by Paul Schenkeveld)
* Mon Oct 09 2006 sndirsch@suse.de
- updated to xterm-221
* fix for regular expressions: the code which converted the column
offset within a line did not check properly for the end of a line,
and if allowed to match the whole line, would select the beginning
of the following line. If the following line were empty, in turn
it would select from the next, etc. (report by Sean
Reifschneider).
* minor optimization of color allocation to avoid repainting the
screen if the corresponding color had not been allocated.
* fixes for vttests/256colors.pl (report by Egmont Koblinger).
* add terminfo building block entries for modifiers of the 6-key
editing keypad.

tek4014 mode, but iconified.
* Tue Sep 05 2006 sndirsch@suse.de
- updated to xterm-219
* some internal restructuring to separate data for vt100 and tek4014
widgets.
* fix a few cases where form-events would be seen by the vt100
widget when built with the toolbar configuration.
* Tue Aug 29 2006 sndirsch@suse.de
- updated to xterm-218
* change behavior when encountering an illegal character in a
title string. Rather than reject the string, translate
illegal characters into "?" and use the string (requested by
Thomas Wolff).
* improve checks for nonprinting characters in title strings
(report by Samuel Thibault).
* correct typo in menu labels, changing print-redirect to
print-redir, making it follow the manpage and match the
usage for the actions table (report by Samuel Thibault).
* correct a typo that prevents building with some older systems
such as Solaris 2.6 (report by Julian Bridle).
* Tue Aug 22 2006 sndirsch@suse.de
- updated to xterm-217
* minor improvements to FreeType font layout and drawing.
* add a check in the ptyInitialErase logic to ensure that
the termcap was read (Redhat Bugzilla #201246).
* limit changes for reverse-video from patch #216 to cases
where the reverse-video command-line option is used (report
by Zdenek Sekera).
* correct bitmap-derived pointsizes for TrueType fonts; they
should be proportional to the square root of the area of
the bitmap fonts.
* add resources to specify pointsize of TrueType fonts (request
by Reuben Thomas).
* improve install of terminfo by filtering out harmless
messages related to extended capabilities. At the same time,
use ncurses tic to compile the extended capabilities if
possible (report by Zdenek Sekera).
* update "xterm+pcfkeys" terminfo entry to correspond to patch
[#216].
* Wed Aug 16 2006 aj@suse.de
- Remove unneeded BuildRequire on xorg-x11.
* Wed Aug 09 2006 sndirsch@suse.de
- fixed /usr/share/fonts directory conflict with filesystem
* Fri Aug 04 2006 sndirsch@suse.de
- updated to xterm-216
* improve handling of ConfigureNotify events by checking if there are
further events in the queue which obsolete the current one (adapted
from rxvt 2.7.5). Only the normal normal (non-toolbar)
configuration is addressed in this patch.
* several changes to terminfo:
+ incorporate some minor changes from ncurses to help keep these
synchronized:
2005-02-26
modify sgr/sgr0 in xterm-new to improve tgetent's
derived "me".
2006-02-18
remove ncv flag from xterm-16color
2006-06-24
improve xterm-256color by combining the 16-color
setaf/setab strings with SGR 48, and cancelling the
setf/setb strings.
+ use extended function-key definitions for xterm-sun, xterm-sco
entries.
+ add terminfo building-blocks corresponding to the
modifyFunctionKeys and modifyCursorKeys resources.
* ifdef'd Sun function-key feature to make it optional, like HP and
SCO.
* extend table for termcap-query feature through F63, and updated
tcapquery.pl to match.
* modify logic for function-key input processing to allow function
key numbers which are constructed by control- and shift-modifiers
to extend beyond X's hardcoded limit of 35.
* add control sequence to set or reset the eightBitInput resource.
* change default resource modifyFunctionKeys to 2 to avoid sending
SS3 with parameters (report by Kalle Olavi Niemitalo).
* add control sequences for setting and resetting the values of the
modifyCursorKeys, modifyFunctionKeys and modifyOtherKeys resources.
* add modifyFunctionKeys resource like modifyCursorKeys. Setting this
to zero allows one to use the control- and shift-modifiers to
construct function key strings, for terminals using many function
keys, e.g., for xterm-sun or xterm-sco.
* modify screen responses and function-key logic to reduce the number
of writes made, to make it less likely that an application would
read only part of a function-key in a read operation (suggested by
John E Urbanczyk).
* add combiningChars resource, which allows the user to specify the
maximum number of combining characters that xterm will store for
each cell in wide-character mode (prompted by request by Markus
Kuhn to increase the limit from 2).
* improve logic in metaSendsEscape in case the Alt- and Meta-keys are
mapped to different modifiers. That allows one to use the Alt-key
for shifting in the eightBitInput and use a Meta-key modifier to
prefix the result with an <ESC>.
* improve modifyCursorKeys logic to prevent it from modifying codes
where eightBitInput or metaSendsEscape are set (request by Dan
Nicolaescu).
* improve modifyCursorKeys logic to prevent it from changing the user
input when other modifiers such as AltGr are used (report by Thomas
Wolff).
* extend modifyCursorKeys to include the numeric keypad when in
application mode.
* improve -reverse (-rv) option (patch by Jason Vas Dias, Redhat
[#189161]).
* workaround for color resources on Fedora-5 which made the toolbar
colors inconsistent.
* corrected calls used for --disable-setuid option, add debugging
traces to help diagnose this area.
* modify configure script to ensure that USE_UTMP_SETGID is defined
only if the check for POSIX saved-ids succeeds, or corresponds to
one of the BSD systems known to have a workable setegid function.
* extend configure check for POSIX saved-ids to include BSD systems
* modify CF_SYSV configure macro to work with gcc on HPUX 10.20,
whose broken <term.h> relies on including <termios.h>.
* change order of setuid/setgid ifdef checks in Imakefile to make it
simpler to produce a setgid install, allowing the latter to
override the former (prompted by an XFree86 commit).
* adapt a fix for setgid support from subsequent XFree86 changes
(patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
* further improve setgid support (patches by Emanuele Giaquinta).

- Bugzilla #49305: add 20x20{ja,ko} fonts generated from
18x18{ja,ko} with the script "bdf18to20" from the mined package.
This is a workaround to make the popular 10x20 font work with

"maximize" in Gnome or KDE which do not use the window manager
hints for this case (Debian #289123, Novell #61153).

* correct variable used to store temporary result from lookup of
bold font, when initializing the wide-bold-font data and no
immediate match is found by asking for a bold variant of the
wide-font. The result was to use overstriking rather than the
actual bold font (Debian #318162, patch by Eugene Konev).
