Features:
* Add active_window_ignore_refnum option With active_window_ignore_refnum ON, the current behavior for the active_window key (meta-a by default) is preserved: it switches to the window with the highest activity level that was last activated. With active_window_ignore_refnum OFF, the old behavior is used: it switches to the window with the highest activity level with the lowest refnum. (by Matt Sparks, bug #667)
* Show new Charybdis +q list in channel windows (numerics 728 and 729).
* Allow servers to belong to multiple networks.
* Improve paste detection. Irssi now detects a paste if it reads at least three bytes in a single read; subsequent reads are associated to the same paste if they happen before 'paste_detect_time' time since the last read. If no read occurs after 'paste_detect_time' time the paste buffer is flushed; if there is at least one complete line its content is sent as a paste, otherwise it is processed normally.
* Show "target changing too fast" messages in the channel/query window.
* Use default trusted CAs if nothing is specified. This allows useful use of -ssl_verify without -ssl_cafile/-ssl_capath, using OpenSSL's default trusted CAs.
* Show why an SSL certificate failed validation.
* Make own nick and actions use default colour instead of white (by Tim Retout).
Bugfixes:
* Change some characters illegal in Windows filenames to underscores in logs
* Fix disconnects when sending large amounts of data over SSL
* Show all nicks instead of just the first in an /accept * listing (Bug #704)
* Make several signals without parameters available to perl again. In particular, this includes the "beep" signal (by Matt Sparks, bug #674)
* Close the config file fd after saving (by Sven Wegener)
* Check if an SSL certificate matches the hostname of the server we are connecting to.
* Fix bash'isms, use command -v instead of which and use bc -l in /CALC.
* Fix a crash with handling the DCC queue.
* Fix crash when checking for fuzzy nick match when not on the channel. Reported by Aurelien Delaitre (SATE 2009).
Also contains security fix for CVE-2009-1959 (patch-ab).
Based on patch provided by Leonardo Taccari in PR 41785.
ChangeLog for 0.8.13
Features:
* Reject some obviously invalid values in /set.
* Add perl bindings for Window::get_history_lines
* Use an io channel to write the config file.
* Use memory slices instead of memory chunks for text buffer.
* Remove methods to create/destroy TextBuffer and TextBufferView and low
level api to add/remove lines, scripts should be fine using
Window::print_after and TextBufferView::remove_line.
* Add print_after method to Window perl object analogous to
gui_printtext_after but which also expands formats and forces a full line.
* Better mapping of signal parameters to Perl. All signals used in scripts
now need to be registered with Irssi::signal_register.
* Add public header with interfaces to manage statusbar items (bug #535)
* Recode: assume utf-8 encoding for an ascii string in which no escape
character occurs (bug #392).
* Allow /BAN, /UNBAN, /KICBAN, /KNOCKOUT if channel is not synced.
Requesting ban lists from an unsynced channel will ask them from the
server, banning a user whose u@h irssi does not know will ban nick!*@* and
only bans irssi knows about can be removed.
* Allow storing multiple "other" prefixes such as +q and +a (original patch
by JasonX)
* Add /set autolog_ignore_targets for cherry-picking targets that shouldn't
get logged.
* Add support for 16 colors. Formats KBGCRMYW and mirc colors are now mapped
to colors 8-15. fe-text translates colors 8-15 to bold/blink+0-7 if the
terminal supports only 8 colors. If your theme uses one of the high color
formats and you really want bold you can change %FMT<string> to %fmt%_%_,
it will work fine in all irssi versions.
* Better 005 PREFIX support (bug #580).
* Display 407 numerics other than "duplicate channel".
* Fix display of ratbox-style operspy whois.
* Recode outgoing irc away messages (bug #412).
* Recode outgoing irc quit messages.
* Remove scrollback_levelclear_levels setting and add a 'level' option to
'sb levelclear' to specify a comma separated list of levels.
* Add perl __WARN__ handler for scripts (bug #427).
* Add Irssi::command_parse_options function to parse options for a command.
* Revert recode changes introduced in 0.8.12.
* Add completion for /WINDOW SERVER.
* Support for reading kicks/msgs from TARGMAX/MAXTARGETS 005 tokens.
* Enhancements to the redirections code.
* Support for RPL_WHOISACTUALLY (338 numeric) for both ratbox and ircu
(bug #428).
* -idle option of /notify is gone.
* /layout save now makes window-channel bindings instantly effective
(bug #35).
* /ping without arguments does not send anymore a ctcp ping to a channel
(bug #542).
* Track IRC operator status of nicks a bit better.
* new 'actlist_names' option to add active items names in 'act' statusbar
item.
* new 'word_completion_backward' command to scroll backwards in the
completion list.
* add 'list' option to /bind to print all the available commands.
* show setter/time in +I lists
* apply -usermode before -autosendcmd (bug #548).
* reduce memory usage of the scrollback buffer and make the display in /sb
status more accurate (higher).
* fix data getting dropped when a lot is sent at a time (e.g. when attaching
to irssi-proxy, bug #528).
* introduce the type Irssi::Irc::Client and signals to communicate with
proxy clients to allow for scripting parts of the irssi-proxy.
* Add sb_search.pl, a script for /SCROLLBACK SEARCH
Bugfixes:
* Fix /NOTIFY list when nick is seen joining (bug #642).
* Include hostmask in 001 event sent by proxy (bug #650).
* Be more power-friendly: don't run any always-on <1s timers (bug #641).
* Don't get confused by a failed /JOIN -window (bug #644).
* Properly initialize embedded Perl (PERL_SYS_INIT3).
* Replace invalid utf-8 bytes with U+FFFD when drawing a line.
* Properly unload the original script when using /script load to reload it.
(bug #525, patch by Lukas Mai)
* Clean up script loading in general:
* Don't leak local variables to eval'd code.
* Set filename/line number to get better error messages from perl.
* Use three-arg open and lexical filehandles to avoid surprises.
* Include error reason in message for unopenable scripts.
* Don't wrap script code in sub handler { } - this avoids spurious
warnings and should at least allow __END__ to work properly. (Patch by
Lukas Mai)
* Fix NETSPLIT_SERVER_REC in signals for Perl.
* Remove buggy /SCROLLBACK redraw and /SET scrollback_save_formats.
* Always preserve the active mainwindow when resizing.
* Ignore DNS not found errors when considering reconnect.
* Do not strip the comma in a mirc color if it is not followed by a digit
(bug #250).
* Fix building perl module with perl-5.10 (bug #630).
* fix leak with $L expando.
* fix possible crash with /script reset.
* ignore exceptions take precedence over ignores in all cases.
* honour -channels preference for ignore -replies (bug #227).
* Fix mode display in whois with unreal (379 numeric) (bug #479).
* Fix regressions that prevented external modules from building/working
(bugs #537#539).
* Fix /set hilight_level not taking effect immediately (bug #598).
* Fix bold, blinking and indentation in /LASTLOG and buf.pl.
- Recode support
- Isupport (005 numeric)
- Passive DCC support.
- Many memleak fixes.
- Network specific ignoring.
- Updated internal error handling.
- Complete 64bit support.
- Revised default aliases.
- Updated paste detection and settings.
- Tons of bugfixes.
- Other changes
The 'pre-install' hack from the pr is no longer needed after a fix from
jlam. Don't delete the patch-ae, which was removed in the pr.
Recode support won't work at the moment on NetBSD.
Bump the version for irssi-icb, due too the upgrade of irssi.
v0.8.9 2003-12-11 Timo Sirainen <tss@iki.fi>
* Fixes a remote crash with:
a) non-x86 hardware (one requiring memory alignmentation)
b) script using "gui print text" signal (with x86 hardware too)
+ /SET auto_whowas OFF allows now disabling automatic /whowas when
/whois doesn't find a nick (by Borys)
- If pasted line starts with command char, treat it as command always.
Paste detection can go on too easily with lagged connections.
irssi-icb is an Irssi plugin that allows access to ICB (Internet
Citizen's Band) networks. The ICB protocol is almost dead now
(superseded by IRC), but there are still some networks around that
use it.
