Support OSC 110, 111, and 112 for resetting colors
This adds support for OSC 110, 111, and 112 escape sequences to reset the foreground, background, and cursor colors in the terminal. The changes include handling these sequences in the `strhandle` function of `st.c`, allowing applications to reset colors to their default values. The OSC sequences originated from Xterm control sequences and are now widely used in terminal applications and supported by many terminal emulators. For applications, this allows them to reset colors to default values without needing to know the colors beforehand. Signed-off-by: Ayman Bagabas <ayman.bagabas@gmail.com>
Eat up "CSI 58" sequences
This is used in the wild by systemd systemctl for example and st misinterpreted it as "blink", because it didn't know "58", then saw "5" as "blink", and then didn't know "245". This should print "foo" as normal text: printf '\e[58:5:245mfoo\n' printf '\e[58:2:50:100:200mfoo\n'
Do not interpret CSI ? u as DECRC
The kitty keyboard protocol docs recommend CSI ? u to query support for that protocol, see https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/keyboard-protocol/ For better or worse, fish shell uses this query to work around bugs in other terminals triggered by requesting that protocol via CSI = 5 u. Unfortunately, st interprets CSI ? u as DECRC (restore cursor position). reproduce with 'printf "\x1b[?u"; cat'. fish could work around this by switching to the alternate screen before running this query; but that might cause tearing on terminals that don't support Synchronized Output. I'm not sure. In the meantime, let's correct our parser. This adds a redundant else-after-return, for consistency with the surrounding code.
Clear screen: Fix edge case
With sequence \e[1J, if cursor is on second line, clear the first line.
fix BadMatch error when embedding on some windows
When embedded, st fails with BadMatch error if the embedder's window has non-default colormap/depth/visual. This commit fixes that by creating st's window inside root and then reparent it into embedder. The reference window for dc.gc is also changed to match root's visuals. A similar commit had been made for dmenu[1]. See this issue[2] on github for context.

support colons in SGR character attributes
Patch by Mikhail Kot <to@myrrc.dev> With some modifications to behave more like xterm (see note below). Example: printf '\033[48;2;255:0:0mtest\n' https://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs/ctlseqs.html Some notes: "CSI Pm m Character Attributes (SGR). [...] o xterm allows either colons (standard) or semicolons (legacy) to separate the subparameters (but after the first colon, colons must be used).

Reset title when an empty title string is given
With this patch, st will reset its window title when an empty string is given as the terminal title. For example: printf "\033]0;\007" Some applications, like termdown, expect this functionality. xterm implements it, but it seems that most other terminal emulators don't. In any case, I don't see why there should ever be a case where the st window doesn't have a title property.
Revert "Fix cursor move with wide glyphs"
This reverts commit 7473a8d1a57e5f9aba41b953f4e498c35e1c9dc5. This patch needs some more work. It caused regressions with programs that use GNU readline, etc. Original test-case example from Tim Culverhouse <tim@timculverhouse.com>: printf " 😀" && sleep 2 && printf "\e[D" && sleep 2 && printf "\e[D" && sleep 2 After the patch it caused regressions, example test-case: printf "A字\bB\n"

set upper limit for REP escape sequence argument
Previously, printf 'L\033[2147483647b' would call tputc('L') 2^31 times, making st unresponsive. This commit allows repeating the last character at most 65535 times in order to prevent freezing and DoS attacks.
Fix cursor move with wide glyphs
st would always move back 1 column, even with wide glyhps (using more than a single column). The glyph rune is set on its first column, and the other ones are to 0, so loop until we detect the start of the previous glyph.
csi: check for private marker in 'S' case
The handler for 'S' final character does not check for a private marker. This can cause a conflict with a sequence called 'XTSMGRAPHICS' which also has an 'S' final character, but uses the private marker '?'. Without checking for a private marker, st will perform a scroll up operation when XTSMGRAPHICS is seen, which can cause unexpected display artifacts.
Add terminfo entries for bracketed paste mode
Helps Vim (and hopefully others) to discover that this feature exists without further user configuration.
Unhide cursor on RIS (\033c)
It is unclear if it's "required" to do this on RIS, but it's useful when calling reset(1) after interactive programs have crashed and garbled up the screen. FWIW, other terminals do it as well (tested with XTerm, VTE, Kitty, Alacritty, Linux VT).
Fix wide glyphs breaking "nowrap" mode
Consider the following example: printf '\e[?7l';\ for i in $(seq $(($(tput cols) - 1))); do printf a; done;\ printf '🙈\n';\ printf '\e[?7h' Even though MODE_WRAP has been disabled, the emoji appeared on the next line. This patch keeps wide glyphs on the same line and moves them to the right-most possible position.
Don't scroll selection on the other screen
Fixes garbage selections when switching to/from the alternate screen. How to reproduce: - Be in primary screen. - Select something. - Run this (switches to alternate screen, positions the cursor at the bottom, triggers selscroll(), and then goes back to primary screen): tput smcup; tput cup $(tput lines) 0; echo foo; tput rmcup - Notice how the (visual) selection now covers a different line. The reason is that selscroll() calls selnormalize() and that cannot find the original range anymore. It's all empty lines now, so it snaps to "select the whole line".
Fix bounds checks of dc.col
dc.collen is the length of dc.col, not the maximum index, hence if x is equal to dc.collen, then it's an error. With config.def.h, the last valid index is 259, so this correctly reports "black": $ printf '\033]4;259;?\e\\' 260 is an invalid index and this reports garbage instead of printing an error: $ printf '\033]4;260;?\e\\'
Makefile: remove the options target
The Makefile used to suppress output (by using @), so this target made sense at the time. But the Makefile should be simple and make debugging with less abstractions or fancy printing. The Makefile was made verbose and doesn't hide the build output, so remove this target. Prompted by a question on the mailing list about the options target.
Fix for wide character being incorrectly cleared on MODE_INSERT
Under insert mode, when inserting a normal character in front of a wide character, the affected region is shifted to the right by one cell. However, the empty cell is reset as if being a part of a wide character, causing the following cell being mishandled as a dummy cell. To reproduce the bug: printf '\033[4h' # set MODE_INSERT printf 妳好 printf '\033[4D' printf 'x' printf '\033[4l\n'
ignore C1 control characters in UTF-8 mode
Ignore processing and printing C1 control characters in UTF-8 mode. These are in the range: 0x80 - 0x9f. By default in st the mode is set to UTF-8. This matches more the behaviour of xterm with the options -u8 or +u8 also. Also see the xterm resource "allowC1Printable". Let me know if this breaks something, in most cases I don't think so. As usual a very good reference is: https://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs/ctlseqs.html
Add support for DSR response "OK" escape sequence
"VT100 defines an escape sequence [1] called Device Status Report (DSR). When the DSR sequence received is `csi 5n`, an "OK" response `csi 0n` is returned. This patch adds that "OK" response. I encountered this missing sequence when I noticed that fzf [2] would clobber my prompt whenever completing a find. To test that ST doesn't currently respond to `csi 5n`, use fzf's shell extension in ST's repo to complete the path for a file. my-fancy-prompt $ vim **<tab> <select a file> st.c Select a file with <enter>, and notice that fzf clobbers some or all of your prompt. After applying this patch, do the same test as above and notice that fzf has no longer clobbered your prompt by placing the file name in the correct position in your command. my-fancy-prompt $ vim **<tab> <select a file> my-fancy prompt $ vim st.c Thank you for considering my first patch submission.
