+
+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.
