Changelog:
Patch #209 - 2006/2/12 - XFree86 4.5.99.22
* remove setf and setb from xterm-256color terminfo entry to avoid
issues with applications that ignore the ANSI strings (report by
Emanuele Giaquinta).
* remove obsolete references to "Xorg" to avoid confusion with
"X.org" (prompted by David Dawes commit message for XFree86).
* improve initial layout performance for the toolbar configuration
by precalculating the height of the toolbar.
* remove menu entry for "Enable Curses Emulation" (to make room for
"Select To Clipboard).
* add resource selectToClipboard, action set-select and a menu
entry to allow users to switch between PRIMARY and CLIPBOARD for
select/paste.
* allow cursor to have the same color as foreground (text), since
it is rendered as reverse (Debian #350664).
* amend change for loading utf8Fonts resource from patch #204 to
allow an ISO-8859-1 "normal" font to be combined with an ISO-10646 font
if the latter is given via the -fw option or its corresponding resource
value.
* add TIOCSCTTY ioctl() ifdef'd for __GNU__ to set the controlling
terminal (Debian #348457).
* add configure option --disable-leaks.
* add a check in Bell to ensure that the VT100 widget is realized,
since it may be called by xtermLoadFont given an incorrect font resource
(Redhat #180450).
* improve initialization of wide-bold font by not using the derived
value when it happens to have few glyphs (report by Mboso Sampson).
* improve dynamic colors by not repainting the screen if only the
cursor color changes (request by Bram Moolenaar).
* fix menu initialization for tek4014 window broken in patch #206.
* typo in manpage (Debian #351425).
* correct loop logic in dotext to prevent an infinite loop if a
wide character was just at the right margin when wrapping was disabled
(report by Serge van den Boom).
* initialize the saved-cursor data so a restore-cursor operation
without a preceding save-cursor operation will not modify the foreground
color.
* add a new selection feature: regular expressions, and new
resources which specify what happens on multiple mouse clicks:
on2Clicks, on3Clicks, on4Clicks and on5Clicks.
* revert the XTerm.ad change from patch #208 (Debian #348384).
* fixes for the print-window to make it handle combining characters
in UTF-8 mode.
* add check to ensure that double-clicking to extend selection will
not extend it into the scrollback area. This still allows users to
scroll back and select text (Debian #347415).
* add configure option --with-tty-group to help work around
deficiencies in packager's build environment (Debian #349142).
* fix typo in configure script option --disable-narrowproto (report
by David Martínez Moreno).
* amend CF_X_FREETYPE changes for pkg-config check to ensure that
Xft is known to that tool (report and patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
* add an ifdef to allow ./configure --disable-active-icon to work,
broken by new code for testing memory leaks in patch #208 (report by
Brian Lindholm).
Patch #208 - 2006/1/3 - XFree86 4.5.99.19
* add charClass resource to XTerm.ad and UXTerm.ad which simplifies
selecting URLs (prompted by Kirill Ponomarew).
* modify install rule for uxterm to account for the
--program-prefix, etc., options by invoking the transformed name of
xterm rather than simply "xterm".
* modify configure --with-app-defaults option to allow
--without-app-defaults.
* add configure --with-symlink option to make it simpler to install
successive versions of xterm renamed using the --program-prefix, etc.,
options with a symbolic link pointing to the most recent.
* make -iconic option work with toolbar configuration (GenToo #113604).
* suppress lastlog feature for 64-bit Solaris configuration since
that platform provides only a 32-bit interface (report by Peter Bray).
* fix memory reallocation for the "UTF-8" menu entry when xterm is
started using the +u8 option (reported by Jan Willem Stumpel).
* add a configure check for the actual path of luit, to work around
broken imake configurations.
* add a configure check for pkg-config (Redhat Bugzilla #173541).
* modify install-rule for uxterm to omit executable suffix, e.g.,
for Cygwin.
* modify sinstall.sh to work around quirks in Cygwin configuration.
