0.15.2
======
This is a very exciting release. Most of the changes are made by Chris Wilson
who just got access to the vte repository. On his first day he committed more
than 20 large patches, cleaning various parts of the code base and optimizing
too! As a result of huge changes in this release, some regressions, specially
on less common systems/architectures is expected. Please file bugs.
Highlights of improvements in this release:
- Moving around in vim and mc is a lot faster now, thanks to much
smaller areas that will be redrawn with this release.
- Mouse wheel is usable in mc now, since we don't generate release
events for scroll wheel events anymore.
- Faster. One of the internal timers was completely removed, and
lots of unnecessary work is not done anymore. Particularly when
the widget is not visible.
- Switched to using g_spawn_async to fork the child process, so we
can now enjoy the error checking implemented in that functions.
Failed forks now return an error message.
- Accessibility improvements.
- New environment variable VTE_BACKEND, to choose which rendering
backend to use. The old VTE_USE_* env vars are deprecated and
not functional anymore.
- Bugs fixed in this release:
Bug 399137 - continuation.
Bug 132316 – terminal widget's context menu posting isn't exposed as an AtkAction

0.11.11: Add APIs for setting font with/without antialiasing, cursor color,
hilite color, and a forkpty()-alike. Fix meta-space. Use glib 2.4's
child watch API if available.
Add a configure switch for setting the default emulation instead of
hard-coding it to be "xterm".
Tweak autowrapping of text to handle cases where the terminal has
both LP and xn capabilities.
Truncate empty lines when copying text to mimic xterm.
Internally abstract out matching APIs, though we still use POSIX regex.
Try to set UTF8 line editing mode under sufficiently-new Linux.
Obey Pango's specified attributes when displaying pre-edit text.
Never steal modifier keys which might affect the input method from
the input methods.
Fix python binding so that help() lists the terminal class.
0.11.10: Fix cases where the application sets the encoding. Adjust display of
way-too-wide characters to better comply with openi18n.
0.11.9: Accessibility improvements. Multihead fixes. Revert to the 0.10 way
of determining how wide an ambiguously-wide character should be. Fix
origin mode. Fix linefeed mode, really. Fix saving/restoring the
cursor position via DECSET/DECRST. Fix handling of control characters
in the middle of control sequences. Don't subject users to my crude
approximation of U00A3 if any available font can be used instead.
0.11.8: Fix some memory leaks. Fix compilation on Solaris. Fix Ctrl-Space.
0.11.7: Properly recognizes 8-bit versions of SS2 and SS3 intermixed with
UTF-8. Add Macedonian and Welsh translations (yay GTP!). Fix keypad
page down key in application keypad mode. Internalize some conversions
to work better on platforms which lack a gunichar-compatible iconv
target or UTF-8 to UTF-8 conversions.
0.11.6: Recognizes 8-bit versions of SS2 and SS3.
Shares pixmap and pixbuf backgrounds between multiple terminal widgets
within the same process, reducing both memory and CPU use.
0.11.5: Support for PC437. Fix Ctrl+/. Use xrdb font settings if GTK+ doesn't
have anything to say.
0.11.4: Speedier transparency update when you move the windows, fixes for
flickering when scrolling part of the screen, accessibility fixes.
Bold works again.
0.11.3: Reworked handling of ISO-2022 text, handles Chinese and Korean
correctly.
0.11.2: Fix for wrapping when selecting by word or lines. Fix to conform to
OpenI18N assertions.
0.11.1: A native FT2 drawing backend which may be faster than Pango on systems
without Xft2. Support for scrolling backgrounds for everyone.
0.11.0: Support for using font sets for better Unicode coverage when drawing
using Xft2. Support for scrolling backgrounds with Xft2.
0.10: Rewrote selection to better integrate dingus and autoscroll support. The
previous implementation was just a mess. Changed the APIs so that callers
have to decide whether or not to log (NOTE: this breaks gnome-terminal
versions before 2.1.1 and 2.0.2).
0.9: Added integration with gnome-pty-helper. This makes the lastlog/utmp/wtmp
stuff work.
0.8: Added iso-2022 and national replacement character substitutions. Line
drawing characters are now represented as Unicode code points internally,
so if you select a graphical line, you'll get the right results when you
paste it.
0.7: Broke rendering code up into a couple of pieces to take advantage of
Xft2 and Xlib APIs for drawing more than one character at a time.
0.6: Replaced the trie parser with a table-driven parser which is faster but
only accurate enough for ANSI-compatible terminal types. At some point
I'll add a redirection layer to use the older code for other terminals.
0.5: Store characters as gunichars internally instead of wchar_t's. Most of
the internal processing is performed on gunichars anyway.
0.4: Support for Xft2 (which lets us do things faster than Xft1), and python
bindings.
0.3: Initial accessibility peer implementation.
