Patch #230 - 2007/12/31
* add quietGrab resource, which when true, suppresses cursor
repainting when NotifyGrab and NotifyUngrab event types are
received during change of focus (request by Nicolas George).
* do not treat Unicode BIDI control characters as combining
characters (Debian #457634).
* add koi8rxterm, from Debian.
* add manpage for uxterm, from Debian (Ubuntu #128136, Debian
#438645)
* remove ".xpm" suffixes from Icon filenames in desktop files since
it confuses some lookups following the [234]Icon Theme
Specification (report by Slava Semushin)
* correct width-calculation used for adjusting proportional fonts,
to work with wide-characters (Debian #441354).
* fixes/improvements for double-size characters:
+ correct old clipping calculation which used total height of
glyphs where ascent was needed.
+ if bold font is unavailable, fall back to normal font
+ adjust to "work" with Xft (which does not support
double-width single-height characters).
+ restore reset of doublesize for a line when it is cleared,
broken in [235]patch #228.
* modify logic for forceBoxChars resource when using TrueType fonts
to be consistent with bitmap fonts
* modify logic for forceBoxChars resource to make the "Line-Drawing
Characters" menu entry use xterm's line-drawing characters even
asked to draw wide line-drawing characters which are available in
the font.
* modify rectangle-support functions to preserve colors when
filling/erasing (request by Enzo Toscano, to match WRQ Reflection
behavior).
* add getopt-parsing to tcapquery.pl, including feature to test the
extended cursor/editing keys.
* make missing double-width glyphs display as double-width (Debian
#456236).
* change tcap-fkeys and rectangles configure options to enable them
by default.
* hide the mouse pointer while user is typing (request by Rodolfo
Borges).
* extend configure options --enable-tcap-query and
--enable-tcap-fkeys to send cursor- and editing-keypad keys
modified according to the keyboard (or termcap) selection for
shift, alt, control, meta.
* modify kdch1 in termcap, e.g., xterm-r6 to match the terminfo
file.
* add -hm option to turn highlightColorMode on or off.
* add highlightColorMode resource to separate the new (since patch
#225) highlighting with both text- and background-colors (prompted
by report/example by Thomas Wolff).
* add Keep Selection menu entry to turn the keepSelection resource
on/off at runtime.
* add keepSelection resource, which when enabled, tells xterm to
retain the X selection even after it stops highlighting it (patch
by Sergey Vlasov).
* extend the CSI > n sequence to allow disabling all types of
modified-keys that the CSI > m sequence affects.
* move include for <xtermcap.h> in resize.c to avoid redefinition of
termios structure on OpenSolaris (report by Rahul Gopinathan
Nair).
* extend terminfo building blocks for modified editing keys to
include all six keys.
* synchronize terminfo with ncurses (report by Stephane Chazelas):
+ equate xterm-xfree86 and xterm-xf86-v44.
+ add ncurses extensions OTbs, AX, for termcap conversions.
+ make old/legacy entries such as xterm-24, xterm-65 and
aliases xterms, vs100 inherit from xterm-old.
+ make xterm-r5 and xterm-r6 the same, ignoring historical
errors in X Consortium's version.
* fix an ifdef in logic for selecting regular expressions while in a
narrow-character locale (Debian #449227).
