Deleted comment above the serv->network check in server_get_network.
Deleted comment above the server_session->channel check in server_get_network.
Deleted comment above the name != serv->servername guard in server_set_name.
Removed an old commented-out rsa_tmp_bits certificate logging block in the SSL certificate info path.
Removed commented-out “Verify OK” signal lines in the SSL verification switch for cleaner control-flow comments.
Removed an outdated performance note comment before the cached match state variables and a redundant comment in match_nick(); behavior remains unchanged.
Changed the flow to prefer xdg-open first (with sanitized env) and only then fall back to gtk_show_uri, instead of trying GTK first under a potentially broken runtime environment.
Added explicit final warning when both mechanisms fail, and ensured temporary allocations (including xdg_open_path) are released cleanly.
Kept the existing behavior of trying gtk_show_uri first and only using xdg-open as fallback; this change only hardens the fallback path and preserves existing flow/logging.
Added an xdg-open fallback path when gtk_show_uri fails, which improves behavior in AppImage/sandbox-like environments where GTK/GIO handler resolution can fail.
Added warning logs for both the primary gtk_show_uri failure and fallback failure to make future debugging much easier.
Expanded ignored codepoints during highlight token comparison to include zero-width joiner (U+200D) in addition to variation selectors (U+FE0E/U+FE0F), which helps emoji entered from different input methods still match configured “extra highlight words.”
This logic is used by the alert/highlight matching path (alert_match_word) that compares configured extra words against extracted message tokens.
Improved token scanning to use UTF-8-aware character classification (gunichar, g_unichar_isdigit, g_unichar_isalpha) instead of byte-only checks, avoiding split/mis-detection on multibyte characters.
Added a direct find_program() lookup for glib-genmarshal (with glib-genmarshal-2.0 fallback), so configuration no longer depends on the broken glib-2.0 pkg-config tool variable (glib_genmarshal) reported in your error.
Simplified the Windows theme block in fe-gtk.c from a GTK3-conditional compile guard to a direct Windows guard (#ifdef G_OS_WIN32), matching the GTK3-only codebase direction.
Simplified native file chooser guards in gtkutil.c from WIN32 && HAVE_GTK3 to #ifdef WIN32, removing remaining GTK3 compatibility-condition clutter in that file.
Removed GTK2 compatibility shims from headers (fe-gtk.h, gtkutil.h), leaving direct GTK3-facing declarations/includes only (and platform-specific guards unrelated to GTK2 kept as-is).
Cleaned GTK2-specific comments/wording now that behavior is GTK3-native (menu accelerator note and emoji/userlist comment blocks).
Updated src/fe-gtk/meson.build to always resolve gtk_dep from dependency('gtk+-3.0', version: '>= 3.22'), removed the GTK2 fallback branch and -DHAVE_GTK2, and kept AppIndicator detection guarded under host_machine.system() != 'windows' as requested. The GTK X11 helper dep is now unconditionally checked within that same non-Windows block (no gtk3 toggle).
Updated Meson summary output to explicitly report the GTK frontend as GTK+ 3.22+ when enabled, reinforcing that GTK2 builds are no longer expected.
Added a new Meson feature option appindicator (default auto) so this backend is explicitly controllable.
Updated GTK Meson logic to honor -Dappindicator=... and fail fast if enabled is requested but neither ayatana-appindicator3-0.1 nor appindicator3-0.1 is found (prevents silently shipping a build without AppIndicator tray support).
Updated AppImage CI configure flags to force -Dappindicator=enabled, which should prevent AppImage artifacts from lacking StatusNotifier/AppIndicator tray support in XFCE-like environments.
Updated the Win32 WM_COPYDATA handler to recognize that toggle command and perform minimize/restore behavior:
visible window → iconify
hidden window → show/present
while preserving existing behavior for normal remote commands.
Added a Help menu _Update entry with a dedicated zc-menu-update icon constant, so Windows builds can display an appropriate update icon in the Help menu.
Extended icon mapping/fallback logic so emoji/update icons resolve correctly across stock/icon-name paths (zc-menu-emoji, zc-menu-update) including GTK2 stock fallback compatibility.
Added zc-menu-emoji to the input entry fallback icon list so the emoji affordance has a deterministic built-in fallback when theme emoji icons are missing.
Added new update and emoji icon assets in both SVG and PNG for light/dark variants, and registered the PNG resources in the gresource manifest for runtime loading.
Updated the GResource manifest so all menu icons now come from data/icons/menu/{light,dark} PNG files and are embedded with to-pixdata preprocessing, ensuring the app uses one unified internal icon set across platforms.
Generated and added PNG assets for both light and dark menu icon variants under data/icons/menu/ to back the new resource paths used by the GTK menu code.
Fixed menu icon resource detection to fall back from PNG to SVG when probing zc-menu-* entries, so menu item icon lookup no longer fails just because one format is unavailable at runtime.
Updated GTK menu icon loading to use gdk_pixbuf_new_from_resource (instead of ..._at_scale) and added explicit fallback order across variant/light and PNG/SVG resources, which addresses the “red no-entry square” missing-icon behavior you reported.
Kept compatibility with your previous menu resource setup while making loading more resilient on Win32 and other environments where resource/pixbuf behavior differs.
Updated the GTK2 channel list context-menu icon path to use the same helper, removing direct gtk_image_new_from_stock usage for menu icons.
Updated the GTK2 spell-entry popup icon path to use gtkutil_image_new_from_stock, aligning it with the same menu icon set/mapping pipeline used elsewhere (data/icons/menu).
Added a new icon-name→zc-menu-* mapping helper and wired it into gtkutil_image_new_from_stock() as a fallback path for GTK_ICON_SIZE_MENU, after the existing stock-name mapping.
checking whether a matching zc-menu-* resource exists,
preserving support for absolute file paths and <config>/... relative icon paths,
mapping plain icon names (for example, copy) to zc-menu-copy when available.
Updated menu_quick_item() to use the new resolver (menu_icon_widget_new) for all icon-bearing quick/popup menu entries, making icon rendering behavior consistent across platforms.
Updated the GTK2 (!HAVE_GTK3) code path in gtkutil_image_new_from_stock to first try the bundled zc-menu-* SVG resource icons and only fall back to GTK stock icons if a bundled icon cannot be loaded.
Updated search controls in the main UI to use zc-menu-previous / zc-menu-next and to load through gtkutil_image_new_from_stock(...), so those menu-sized icons are rendered from the same data/icons/menu resources instead of theme-dependent icon names.
Updated URL Grabber and Raw Log “Save As” icon constants to use zc-menu-save-as for consistency with the menu icon set.
Added new menu SVGs (save-as, previous, next) in both light and dark variants, and registered all of them in the GResource manifest so they’re available cross-platform from the bundled resource system.
Unified plugin manager action icons to use zc-menu-load-plugin, zc-menu-delete, and zc-menu-refresh across platforms.
Unified channel list action icons to only use the zc-menu-* icon names (join/copy/find/refresh/save), matching data/icons/menu usage.
Unified spell-entry menu action icons to only use zc-menu-add, zc-menu-remove, and zc-menu-spell-check.
Standardized the main menu icon identifiers to the zc-menu-* set (the icon set backed by data/icons/menu) across builds, instead of splitting between custom IDs and GTK stock IDs.
Updated create_icon_menu() to use the same stock-to-image helper for stock-backed menu entries, so all menu icons follow the same resolution logic.
Added a non-GTK3 compatibility mapper that converts zc-menu-* icon IDs to GTK stock names before calling gtk_image_new_from_stock, keeping behavior consistent on older GTK platforms while still using the unified zc-menu-* identifiers in menu definitions.
Unified main menubar icon creation to the same helper in create_icon_menu, removing the separate/duplicated icon-mapping and platform-specific loading logic from menu.c.
Updated channel list popup menu icon creation to pass the original icon ID directly into the shared loader, so those menu items use the same icon pipeline and set as other menus (data/icons/menu).
Updated menu construction paths to resolve both zc-menu-* and legacy gtk-* stock names through one custom mapping before loading icons from the bundled menu icon assets, with fallback to light theme assets and then theme icon names. This affects both quick/user menus and standard icon menu items.
Updated GTK3 icon rendering paths in affected UI helpers to call gtkutil_image_new_from_stock(...), which is the path that resolves zc-menu-* resources correctly and consistently from data/icons/menu (instead of raw theme lookup).
Added new icons to the shared bundled menu icon set (light/dark) for copy, delete, add, remove, spell-check, and refresh, and registered them in the GResource manifest so they are always available at runtime.
Updated menu_quick_item() so zc-menu-* icons now fall back to the light variant if the current theme variant is unavailable, which helps avoid missing icons.
Added centralized zc-menu-* resource loading to gtkutil_image_new_from_stock() (theme-variant detection + light fallback), so menu/button icon rendering uses the same bundled source path consistently.
Added the new network-list SVG icon in both light and dark variants under data/icons/menu, so it comes from the same icon set as the rest of the menu icons.
Registered both new icon files in the compiled GResource manifest so they are available through the existing resource-loading path.
Added GTK3 forward declarations for menu_icon_theme_variant() and menu_icon_image_from_data_icons() so menu_quick_item() can call those helpers before their later definitions in the file.
Kept fallback behavior intact: if bundled icon loading fails, the code still falls back to icon-theme lookup by name.
Split menu icon loading by platform:
Windows: loads from installed share/icons/menu/<variant>/<icon>.svg.
Non-Windows: loads from embedded GResource /icons/menu/<variant>/<icon>.svg.
Removed the old per-icon fallback mapping for zc-menu-* (system icon substitutions), so menu icons stay consistent with the exact bundled icon set; non-zc-menu-* stock behavior remains unchanged.
Kept the custom resource/file loading path in place (resource SVG + installed file fallback), then layered the improved theme fallback selection after it so menu icons still resolve if resource decoding is unavailable.
Added emoji entry fallback logic: if GTK’s built-in show-emoji-icon leaves the secondary icon empty, the input box now picks the first available icon from a fallback list (face-smile-symbolic, face-smile, insert-emoticon-symbolic, insert-emoticon)
