* Rename cursor.style value ‘bar’ to ‘beam’. ‘bar’ remains recognized,
but should eventually be deprecated and then removed.
* Add ‘cursor.beam-thickness’ option, a pt-or-px value specifying the
thickness of the beam cursor. Defaults to 1.5pt.
* Rename (and export) pt_or_px_as_pixels() to
term_pt_or_px_as_pixels()
* Change term_pt_or_px_as_pixels() to round point values instead of
truncating them.
term_print() is called whenever the client application “prints”
something to the grid. It is called for both ASCII and UTF-8
characters, and needs to handle sixels, insert mode and ASCII
vs. graphical charsets.
Since it’s on the hot path, this becomes unnecessarily slow.
This patch adds a “fast” version of term_print(), tailored for the
common case: ASCII characters in non-insert mode, without any sixels
and non-graphical charsets.
A new function, term_update_ascii_printer(), has been added, and must
be called whenever:
* The currently selected charset *index* changes
* The currently selected charset changes (from ASCII to graphical, or
vice verse)
* Sixels are added to the grid
* Sixels are removed from the grid
* Insert mode is enabled/disabled
When enabled (the default), sixels behave much like normal output; the
start where the cursor is, and the cursor moves with the
sixel. I.e. after emitting a sixel the cursor is left after the image;
either to the right, if private mode 8452 is enabled, or otherwise on
the next line. Terminal content is scrolled up if the sixel is larger
than the screen.
When disabled, sixels *always* start at (0,0), the cursor never moves,
and the terminal content never scrolls.
In other words, the ‘disabled’ mode is a much simpler mode.
All we need to do to support both modes is re-write the sixel-emitting
loop to:
* break early if we’re “out of rows”, i.e. we’ve reached the bottom of
the screen.
* not linefeed, or move the cursor when scrolling is disabled
This patch also fixes a bug in the (new) implementation of private
mode 8452.
When emitting a sixel, we may break it up into smaller pieces, to
ensure a single sixel (as tracked internally) does not cross the
scrollback wrap-around.
The code that checked if we should do a linefeed or not, would skip
the linefeed on the last row of *each* such sixel piece. The correct
thing to do is to skip it only on the last row of the *last* piece.
I chose not to fix this bug in a separate patch since doing so would
have meant re-writing it again when implementing private mode 80.
When disabled (the default), the cursor is positioned on a new line
after emitting a sixel image.
When enabled, the cursor is positioned to the right of the sixel
image.
Closes#363
When enabled (the default), sixels use private color registers. That
is, the color palette from the last sixel is *not* re-used.
When disabled, sixels share (i.e. re-use) the same color palette.
Closes#362
Foot previously responded with window local coordinates.
But, XTerm responds with screen *absolute* coordinates. This isn’t
possible under Wayland, thus we now report (0,0) instead. Same as we
do for ‘CSI 13 ; 0 t’.
* 1047 enters/leaves the alt screen, but without saving/restoring the
cursor.
* 1048 saves/restores the cursor
* 1049 is 1047+1048
Note: when xtsaving and xtrestoring 1048, why simply save/restore the
cursor. Without having read XTerms sources, this appears to be what it
is doing.
Take ‘\E(#0’ for example - this is *not* the same as ‘\E(0’.
Up until now, foot has however treated them as the same escape,
because the handler for ‘\E(0’ didn’t verify there weren’t any _other_
private characters present.
Fix this by turning the ‘private’ array into a single 4-byte
integer. This allows us to match *all* privates with a single
comparison.
Private characters are added to the LSB first, and MSB last. This
means we can check for single privates in pretty much the same way as
before:
switch (term->vt.private) {
case ‘?’:
...
break;
}
Checking for two (or more) is much uglier, but foot only supports
a *single* escape with two privates, and no escapes with three or
more:
switch (term->vt.private) {
case 0x243f: /* ‘?$’ */
...
break;
}
The ‘clear’ action remains simple (and fast), with a single write
operation.
Collecting privates is potentially _slightly_ more complex than
before; we now need mask and compare, instead of simply comparing,
when checking how many privates we already have.
We _could_ add a counter, which would make collecting privates easier,
but this would add an additional write to the ‘clean’ action which is
really bad since it’s in the hot path.
Well this is embarrassing; the sub-parameter versions of the 38/48 SGR
escapes all required an extra ‘:2’ that wasn’t supposed to be there,
causing all the other sub-parameters to be shifted one step to the
right.
That is, foot expected e.g. 38:2:2:r:g:b, or 38:2:5:idx when the
correct sequences are 38:2:cs:r:g:b and 38:5:idx.
I.e. I mixed up the color-space ID (cs) of 38:2 with *type* of color:
RGB or indexed.
In addition to fixing this, this patch also adds support for a
“bastard” version of the sub-parameter based RGB escapes, where the
color-space identifier has been left out: e.g. 38:2:r:g:b. This
sequence is invalid, but applications tend to “forget” the color-space
ID...
This mode can be set by client programs with the DECSET, DECRST,
XTSAVE and XTRESTORE sequences by using 27127 as the parameter.
The sequence "\E[27;1;27~" is encoded in the same way as is done by
xterm's "modifyOtherKeys" mode. Even though xterm itself never emits
such a sequence for the Escape key, many programs already have
support for parsing this style of key sequence.
There are two different escape sequences that can be used to set the
cursor blink state: ‘CSI ? 12 h/l’ and ‘CSI Ps SP q’.
Up until now, they both modified the same internal state in foot. This
meant you could enable a blinking cursor with e.g. ‘CSI ? 12 h’ and
then disable it with ‘CSI 2 SP q’.
Since the ‘CSI ? 12’ escapes are used in the civis/cnorm/cvvis
terminfo entries, applications often ended up disabling the blink
state on exit (typically be emitting ‘cnorm’), requiring users to
manually re-enable blinking.
By splitting the internal state into two separate states, we can
improve the situation.
The cursor will blink if at least one of the two have been enabled.
The setting in foot.ini sets the default state of the ‘CSI Ps SP q’
escape.
This means if the user has enabled blinking in the configuration, the
cursor will blink regardless of civis/cnorm/cvvis. Which probably is
what the user wants.
If the user has NOT enabled blinking, civis/cnorm/cvvis act as
intended: cvvis blink, civis and cnorm do not.
If an application overrides the cursor blink/style with ‘CSI Ps SP q’,
that will override the user’s setting in foot.ini. But most likely
that too is intended (for example, the user may have configured the
application to use a different cursor style). And, a well written
application will emit the ‘Se’ terminfo sequence on exit, which in
foot is defined to ‘CSI SP q’, which will reset both the style and
blink state to the user configured style/state.
Closes#218
Add anew config option, ‘bell=none|set-urgency’. When set to
‘set-urgency’, the margins will be painted in red (if the window did
not have keyboard focus).
This is intended as a cheap replacement for the ‘urgency’ hint, that
doesn’t (yet) exist on Wayland.
Closes#157
E.g. only set mouse reporting to NONE, if mouse reporting mode is SGR
and an DECRST SGR is issued.
Do *not* reset the mouse mode if e.g. mouse reporting mode is SGR and
an DECRST URXVT is issued.
Previously, our secondary DA response indicated a) VT420, b) an XTerm
version number.
Now, we indicate VT220 (which corresponds to the primary DA response),
and we report foot's version number as MMmmpp. I.e major, minor and
patch versions, using two digits.
E.g. 1.4.2 is encoded as 010402
