Changelog

• Unreleased
• 1.2.3
• 1.2.2
• 1.2.1
• 1.2.0

Unreleased

Added

• User configurable key- and mouse bindings. See man 5 foot and the example footrc (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/1)
• initial-window-mode option to footrc, that lets you control the initial mode for each newly spawned window: windowed, maximized or fullscreen.
• app-id option to footrc and --app-id command line option, that sets the app-id property on the Wayland window.
• title option to footrc and --title command line option, that sets the initial window title.
• Right mouse button extends the current selection.
• CSI Ps ; Ps ; Ps t escape sequences for the following parameters: 11t, 13t, 13;2t, 14t, 14;2t, 15t, 19t.
• Unicode combining characters. This feature is compile time optional. See README.md for details.

Changed

• Spaces no longer removed from zsh font name completions.
• Default key binding for spawn-terminal to ctrl+shift+n.
• Renderer is now much faster with interactive scrolling (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/4)
• memfd sealing failures are no longer fatal errors.
• Selection to no longer be cleared on resize.
• The current monitor's subpixel order (RGB/BGR/V-RGB/V-BGR) is preferred over FontConfig's rgba property. Only if the monitor's subpixel order is unknown is FontConfig's rgba property used. If the subpixel order is none, then grayscale antialiasing is used. The subpixel order is ignored if antialiasing has been disabled.
• The four primary font variants (normal, bold, italic, bold italic) are now loaded in parallel. This speeds up both the initial startup time, as well as a DPI changes.

Deprecated

Removed

• Keyboard/pointer handler workarounds for Sway 1.2.

Fixed

• Sixel images moved or deleted on window resize.
• Cursor sometimes incorrectly restored on exit from alternate screen.
• 'Underline' cursor being invisible on underlined text.
• Restored cursor position in 'normal' screen when window was resized while in 'alt' screen.
• Hostname in OSC 7 URI not being validated.
• OSC 4 with multiple c;spec pairs.
• Alt+Return to emit "ESC \r".
• Trackpad sloooow scrolling to eventually scroll a line.
• Memory leak in terminal reset.
• Translation of cursor coordinates on resize
• Scaling of legacy formatted color specifiers in OSC sequences.

Security

1.2.2

Changed

• Changed icon name in foot.desktop and foot-server.desktop from terminal to utilities-terminal.
• XDG_SESSION_ID is now included in the server/daemon default socket path.

Fixed

• Window size doubling when moving window between outputs with different scaling factors (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/3).
• Font being too small on monitors with fractional scaling (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/5).

1.2.1

Fixed

• Building AUR package

1.2.0

Added

• Run-time text resize using ctrl-+, ctrl+- and ctrl+0
• Font size adjusts dynamically to outputs' DPI
• Reflow text when resizing window
• pad option to footrc
• login-shell option to footrc and --login-shell command line option
• Client side decorations (CSDs). This finally makes foot usable on GNOME.
• Sixel graphics support

Changed

• Subpixel antialiasing is only enabled when background is opaque
• Meta/alt ESC prefix can now be disabled with \E[?1036l. In this mode, the 8:th bit is set and the result is UTF-8 encoded. This can also be disabled with \E[1024l (in which case the Alt key is effectively being ignored).
• terminfo now uses ST instead of BEL as OSC terminator
• Logging to print to stderr, not stdout
• Backspace now emits DEL (^?), and ctrl+backspace emits BS (^H)

Removed

• '28' from DA response
