This is a bugfix update (as was the -2 release, which I neglected to announce). This release should correct the issues with font-size-changing in native windows mode, reported http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-05/msg00967.html http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-06/msg00109.html http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-06/msg00124.html Thanks to Gilbert, Cheetah, and rene. The -2 release fixed an issue where rxvt would hide a user's interactive bash-in-cmd.exe session. Changes since 20050409-2: --------------------------------- * Implement XTranslateCoords() within libW11 in an attempt to get smart resizing to work. Discover that most Xservers lie about upper-left-corner position of client windows, such that WM decorations are already accounted for -- and thus the small section rxvt code within the smart-resize function that "compensates" for WM decorations is not active with "real" Xservers. But libW11 doesn't lie about WM decorations.And rxvt's "compensation" code -- active in this case -- is hopelessly broken. Don't use --enable-smart-resize. Changes since 20050409-1: --------------------------------- * Removed hide_console code. As it happens, the W11 wrapper library already had similar -- smarter -- code for hiding the console. This pre-existing code did not hide the console rxvt was invoked via a bash-in-cmd.exe shell, whereas the now-removed code did do so. Thus, invoking 'rxvt' from the command line in such a shell permanently hid the user's existing session. This was bad. * However, this means we will need a different solution for when we invoke rxvt via a script and WANT the script's console hidden. See http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-05/msg00403.html * Turned on support for 24bit visuals (may only have effect when in X mode), as well as selection scrolling. -- Chuck -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
