-
-Input handling changes:
-
- * Improve Ctrl-C handling with programs that use unprocessed input. (e.g.
- Ctrl-C now cancels input with PowerShell on Windows 10.)
- [#116](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/116)
- * Fix a theoretical issue with input event ordering.
- [#117](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/117)
- * Ctrl/Shift+{Arrow,Home,End} keys now work with IntelliJ.
- [#118](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/118)
-
-# Version 0.4.3 (2017-05-17)
-
-Input handling changes:
-
- * winpty sets `ENHANCED_KEY` for arrow and navigation keys. This fixes an
- issue with the Ruby REPL.
- [#99](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/99)
- * AltGr keys are handled better now.
- [#109](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/109)
- * In `ENABLE_VIRTUAL_TERMINAL_INPUT` mode, when typing Home/End with a
- modifier (e.g. Ctrl), winpty now generates an H/F escape sequence like
- `^[[1;5F` rather than a 1/4 escape like `^[[4;5~`.
- [#114](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/114)
-
-Resizing and scraping fixes:
-
- * winpty now synthesizes a `WINDOW_BUFFER_SIZE_EVENT` event after resizing
- the console to better propagate window size changes to console programs.
- In particular, this affects WSL and Cygwin.
- [#110](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/110)
- * Better handling of resizing for certain full-screen programs, like
- WSL less.
- [#112](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/112)
- * Hide the cursor if it's currently outside the console window. This change
- fixes an issue with Far Manager.
- [#113](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/113)
- * winpty now avoids using console fonts smaller than 5px high to improve
- half-vs-full-width character handling. See
- https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/19665.
- [b4db322010](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/commit/b4db322010d2d897e6c496fefc4f0ecc9b84c2f3)
-
-Cygwin/MSYS adapter fix:
-
- * The way the `winpty` Cygwin/MSYS2 adapter searches for the program to
- launch changed. It now resolves symlinks and searches the PATH explicitly.
- [#81](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/81)
- [#98](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/98)
-
-This release does not include binaries for the old MSYS1 project anymore.
-MSYS2 will continue to be supported. See
-https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/97.
-
-# Version 0.4.2 (2017-01-18)
-
-This release improves WSL support (i.e. Bash-on-Windows):
-
- * winpty generates more correct input escape sequences for WSL programs that
- enable an alternate input mode using DECCKM. This bug affected arrow keys
- and Home/End in WSL programs such as `vim`, `mc`, and `less`.
- [#90](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/90)
- * winpty now recognizes the `COMMON_LVB_REVERSE_VIDEO` and
- `COMMON_LVB_UNDERSCORE` text attributes. The Windows console uses these
- attributes to implement the SGR.4(Underline) and SGR.7(Negative) modes in
- its VT handling. This change affects WSL pager status bars, man pages, etc.
-
-The build system no longer has a "version suffix" mechanism, so passing
-`VERSION_SUFFIX=<suffix>` to make or `-D VERSION_SUFFIX=<suffix>` to gyp now
-has no effect. AFAIK, the mechanism was never used publicly.

-
-# Version 0.4.1 (2017-01-03)
-
-Bug fixes:
-
- * This version fixes a bug where the `winpty-agent.exe` process could read
- past the end of a buffer.
- [#94](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/94)
-
-# Version 0.4.0 (2016-06-28)
-
-The winpty library has a new API that should be easier for embedding.
-[880c00c69e](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/commit/880c00c69eeca73643ddb576f02c5badbec81f56)
-
-User-visible changes:
-
- * winpty now automatically puts the terminal into mouse mode when it detects
- that the console has left QuickEdit mode. The `--mouse` option still forces
- the terminal into mouse mode. In principle, an option could be added to
- suppress terminal mode, but hopefully it won't be necessary. There is a
- script in the `misc` subdirectory, `misc/ConinMode.ps1`, that can change
- the QuickEdit mode from the command-line.
- * winpty now passes keyboard escapes to `bash.exe` in the Windows Subsystem
- for Linux.
- [#82](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/82)
-
-Bug fixes:
-
- * By default, `winpty.dll` avoids calling `SetProcessWindowStation` within
- the calling process.
- [#58](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/58)
- * Fixed an uninitialized memory bug that could have crashed winpty.
- [#80](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/80)
- * winpty now works better with very large and very small terminal windows.
- It resizes the console font according to the number of columns.
- [#61](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/61)
- * winpty no longer uses Mark to freeze the console on Windows 10. The Mark
- command could interfere with the cursor position, corrupting the data in
- the screen buffer.
- [#79](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/79)
-
-# Version 0.3.0 (2016-05-20)
-
-User-visible changes:
-
- * The UNIX adapter is renamed from `console.exe` to `winpty.exe` to be
- consistent with MSYS2. The name `winpty.exe` is less likely to conflict
- with another program and is easier to search for online (e.g. for someone
- unfamiliar with winpty).
- * The UNIX adapter now clears the `TERM` variable.
- [#43](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/43)
- * An escape character appearing in a console screen buffer cell is converted
- to a '?'.
- [#47](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/47)
-
-Bug fixes:
-
- * A major bug affecting XP users was fixed.
- [#67](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/67)
- * Fixed an incompatibility with ConEmu where winpty hung if ConEmu's
- "Process 'start'" feature was enabled.
- [#70](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/70)
- * Fixed a bug where `cmd.exe` sometimes printed the message,
- `Not enough storage is available to process this command.`.
- [#74](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/74)
-
-Many changes internally:
-
- * The codebase is switched from C++03 to C++11 and uses exceptions internally.
- No exceptions are thrown across the C APIs defined in `winpty.h`.
- * This version drops support for the original MinGW compiler packaged with
- Cygwin (`i686-pc-mingw32-g++`). The MinGW-w64 compiler is still supported,
- as is the MinGW distributed at mingw.org. Compiling with MSVC now requires
- MSVC 2013 or newer. Windows XP is still supported.
- [ec3eae8df5](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/commit/ec3eae8df5bbbb36d7628d168b0815638d122f37)
- * Pipe security is improved. winpty works harder to produce unique pipe names
- and includes a random component in the name. winpty secures pipes with a
- DACL that prevents arbitrary users from connecting to its pipes. winpty now
- passes `PIPE_REJECT_REMOTE_CLIENTS` on Vista and up, and it verifies that
- the pipe client PID is correct, again on Vista and up. When connecting to a
- named pipe, winpty uses the `SECURITY_IDENTIFICATION` flag to restrict
- impersonation. Previous versions *should* still be secure.
- * `winpty-debugserver.exe` now has an `--everyone` flag that allows capturing
- debug output from other users.
- * The code now compiles cleanly with MSVC's "Security Development Lifecycle"
- (`/SDL`) checks enabled.
-
-# Version 0.2.2 (2016-02-25)
-
-Minor bug fixes and enhancements:
-
- * Fix a bug that generated spurious mouse input records when an incomplete
- mouse escape sequence was seen.
- * Fix a buffer overflow bug in `winpty-debugserver.exe` affecting messages of
- exactly 4096 bytes.
- * For MSVC builds, add a `src/configurations.gypi` file that can be included
- on the gyp command-line to enable 32-bit and 64-bit builds.
- * `winpty-agent --show-input` mode: Flush stdout after each line.
- * Makefile builds: generate a `build/winpty.lib` import library to accompany
- `build/winpty.dll`.
-
-# Version 0.2.1 (2015-12-19)
-
- * The main project source was moved into a `src` directory for better code
- organization and to fix
- [#51](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/51).
- * winpty recognizes many more escape sequences, including:
- * putty/rxvt's F1-F4 keys
- [#40](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/40)
- * the Linux virtual console's F1-F5 keys
- * the "application numpad" keys (e.g. enabled with DECPAM)
- * Fixed handling of Shift-Alt-O and Alt-[.
- * Added support for mouse input. The UNIX adapter has a `--mouse` argument
- that puts the terminal into mouse mode, but the agent recognizes mouse
- input even without the argument. The agent recognizes double-clicks using
- Windows' double-click interval setting (i.e. GetDoubleClickTime).
- [#57](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/57)
-
-Changes to debugging interfaces:
-
- * The `WINPTY_DEBUG` variable is now a comma-separated list. The old
- behavior (i.e. tracing) is enabled with `WINPTY_DEBUG=trace`.
- * The UNIX adapter program now has a `--showkey` argument that dumps input
- bytes.
- * The `winpty-agent.exe` program has a `--show-input` argument that dumps
- `INPUT_RECORD` records. (It omits mouse events unless `--with-mouse` is
- also specified.) The agent also responds to `WINPTY_DEBUG=trace,input`,
- which logs input bytes and synthesized console events, and it responds to
- `WINPTY_DEBUG=trace,dump_input_map`, which dumps the internal table of
- escape sequences.
-
-# Version 0.2.0 (2015-11-13)
-
-No changes to the API, but many small changes to the implementation. The big
-changes include:
-
- * Support for 64-bit Cygwin and MSYS2
- * Support for Windows 10
- * Better Unicode support (especially East Asian languages)
-
-Details:
-
- * The `configure` script recognizes 64-bit Cygwin and MSYS2 environments and
- selects the appropriate compiler.
- * winpty works much better with the upgraded console in Windows 10. The
- `conhost.exe` hang can still occur, but only with certain programs, and
- is much less likely to occur. With the new console, use Mark instead of
- SelectAll, for better performance.
- [#31](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/31)
- [#30](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/30)
- [#53](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/53)
- * The UNIX adapter now calls `setlocale(LC_ALL, "")` to set the locale.
- * Improved Unicode support. When a console is started with an East Asian code
- page, winpty now chooses an East Asian font rather than Consolas / Lucida
- Console. Selecting the right font helps synchronize character widths
- between the console and terminal. (It's not perfect, though.)
- [#41](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/41)
- * winpty now more-or-less works with programs that change the screen buffer
- or resize the original screen buffer. If the screen buffer height changes,
- winpty switches to a "direct mode", where it makes no effort to track
- scrolling. In direct mode, it merely syncs snapshots of the console to the
- terminal. Caveats:
- * Changing the screen buffer (i.e. `SetConsoleActiveScreenBuffer`)
- breaks winpty on Windows 7. This problem can eventually be mitigated,
- but never completely fixed, due to Windows 7 bugginess.
- * Resizing the original screen buffer can hang `conhost.exe` on Windows 10.
- Enabling the legacy console is a workaround.
- * If a program changes the screen buffer and then exits, relying on the OS
- to restore the original screen buffer, that restoration probably will not
- happen with winpty. winpty's behavior can probably be improved here.
- * Improved color handling:
- * DkGray-on-Black text was previously hiddenly completely. Now it is
- output as DkGray, with a fallback to LtGray on terminals that don't
- recognize the intense colors.
- [#39](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/39).
- * The console is always initialized to LtGray-on-Black, regardless of the
- user setting, which matches the console color heuristic, which translates
- LtGray-on-Black to "reset SGR parameters."
- * Shift-Tab is recognized correctly now.
- [#19](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/19)
- * Add a `--version` argument to `winpty-agent.exe` and the UNIX adapter. The
- argument reports the nominal version (i.e. the `VERSION.txt`) file, with a
- "VERSION_SUFFIX" appended (defaulted to `-dev`), and a git commit hash, if
- the `git` command successfully reports a hash during the build. The `git`
- command is invoked by either `make` or `gyp`.
- * The agent now combines `ReadConsoleOutputW` calls when it polls the console
- buffer for changes, which may slightly reduce its CPU overhead.
- [#44](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/issues/44).
- * A `gyp` file is added to help compile with MSVC.
- * The code can now be compiled as C++11 code, though it isn't by default.
- [bde8922e08](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty/commit/bde8922e08c3638e01ecc7b581b676c314163e3c)
- * If winpty can't create a new window station, it charges ahead rather than
- aborting. This situation might happen if winpty were started from an SSH
- session.
- * Debugging improvements:
- * `WINPTYDBG` is renamed to `WINPTY_DEBUG`, and a new `WINPTY_SHOW_CONSOLE`
- variable keeps the underlying console visible.
- * A `winpty-debugserver.exe` program is built and shipped by default. It
- collects the trace output enabled with `WINPTY_DEBUG`.
- * The `Makefile` build of winpty now compiles `winpty-agent.exe` and
- `winpty.dll` with -O2.
