This may sound a little inpolite, but recent ebuilds seem to be written by somebody who didn't bother to read rxvt-unicode Changelog. First --disable-menubar is no longer needed in 7.1 - it was removed upstream. Second - unless build by portage and by ./configure differ very much --enable-xft is already implied by --enable-everything (and I think it has been for quite a while). Third - why was --disable-iso14755 silently inserted somewhere between 5.3 and 7.0 ? While it's nothing crutial it is still a major usability feature, and it's not even controled by a useflag. BTW rxvt-unicode 7.2 has been released.
As of now it's rxvt-unicode 7.4.
7.5, I think we are approaching 7.6 soon. :-)
huzzah. 7.6 Fri Feb 10 08:52:36 CET 2006 - changed interpretation of [alpha] colour prefix. - +option now really sets the option to default, instead of using the resource value. - options that require an argument now really _require_ an argument. - the tabbed extension now forwards focus and keys events to th relevant tab window. - tab colours are now configurable and have sensible defaults (initial patch by hednod). - option menu is extendable, readline, selection and selection-autotransform can now be disabled/enabled at runtime. - forcing a configure event to tabbed subwindows with -pe tabbed, for the benefit of automove-background. - the automove-background extension added a wrong constant offset. - force refresh of XA_RESOURCE_STRING on virtual reconnect. - return exit status 2 in urxvtc when urxvtd couldn't be contacted. - the linux yield hack is back, now using usleep, and enabled only on __linux__. - further round trip eliminations in the !XFT case by remembering the colour components. - plain scrollbar works better with -sr. - fixed half-shadow scrollbar look. - more colour rtt optimisations. - properly(?) free colours on window close. - reorganised the FAQ into multiple sections. - add ISO646.1991-IRV to the list of supported codesets. - minor libptytty update. would anyone like to write an updated ebuild? it would probably get more attention than critism alone.
Created attachment 79609 [details] Ebuild for rxvt-unicode-7.6 Not that it needs much rewriting but OK. This one should make iso14755 optional but ON by default.
Created attachment 79733 [details] rxvt-unicode-7.6.ebuild Cleaned up the if statement in src_compile function. I was having problems creating a digest from the previous ebuild.
7.7 Tue Feb 21 12:32:49 CET 2006 - use double-buffered drawing (xft fonts only). On many driver/hardware combination this actually increases xft drawing speed, at the expense of more network bandwidth and slight nausea on the side of the author. - readline perl extension now requires shift-click instead of a normal click, and eats the click. - tabbed perl extension now supports -e. - disabled graphics-exposures on the main drawing GC, report any refresh bugs please. - improve property handling for -pe tabbed: avoid unnecessary property changes (for kde's benefit) at the expense of extra round-trips, improve size hint setting. - modified XIM according to a patch sent by Takano Akio that sets the preedit rectangle for OverTheSpot, which helps some input methods to correctly position their preedit window. - un-optimise the line clearing on newly scrolled-in lines a bit: the former reasoning was that any fg colour on default bg looks the same in empts spaces, but thats not true when reversing (e.g. selection), so also check for matching fg colours. This fixes the problem where selecting newly scrolled-in lines would exhibit wrong colours. - fix a bug in the perl interface causing focus in events to generate focus out perl events, causing bad focus effects with -pe tabbed. - fix a race resulting in a crash on exiting. - fix a with --disable-xft that caused xfreecolors to be called on colors never allocated, resulting in aborts (reported by Paco-Paco). - resources on non-initial screens weren't refetched correctly (reported by Paco-Paco). - fix a bug in xcopyarea pass and _disable_ it, as it seems not to be working in either rxvt-unicode nor in the original rxvt. - removed undocumented -exec alias for the -e option.
