Development version rxvt 2.7.6 is now available.  The development
series 2.7.x contains new code which has not undergone testing on
as many platforms as the more stable 2.6.x series.  You may or may
not have problems running or even compiling it.  However all feedback
on both issues is gratefully received.  Please send all reports to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

You can pick it up in the normal fashion:
FTP:  ftp.rxvt.org  /pub/rxvt/  <URL:ftp://ftp.rxvt.org/pub/rxvt/>
HTTP: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/rxvt/rxvt-2.7.6.tar.gz

You need one of the following:
/----------md5 checksum-----------size----------filename---------
31aa4d89b9cd7f968254d1920ca07078 360755 rxvt-2.7.6.tar.bz2
38ebb05ad29dd4e979743ec1d47be4dc 475554 rxvt-2.7.6.tar.gz

or from anonymous CVS, see <URL:http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=221>
for details.  You need the GNU autoconf package (a stable release version)
and the yodl package to make a full build.  You also need to run ./.prebuild
first time through.


Under long standing tradition I will be away until 20th April and will
not be able to address any issues people may have until then.


The files ``ChangeLog'' and ``changes.txt'' are included in both
the tar files and the FTP directory.

Notes:
 Lots of fixes
 New configure options (see change list below for more description):
   --enable-24bit
   --enable-smart-resize
 New run time options:
   -tcw (--tripleclickwords)
   -mcc (--multibyte_cursor)
