the latter two was suggested by Quentin Rameau in his patch review on
the hackers list.
the array is not accessed outside of base64dec() so it makes sense to
limit it's scope to the related function. the static-storage duration of
the array is kept intact.
this also removes unnecessary explicit zeroing from the start and end of
the array. anything that wasn't explicitly zero-ed will now be
implicitly zero-ed instead.
the validity of the new array can be easily confirmed via running this
trivial loop:
for (int i = 0; i < 255; ++i)
assert(base64_digits[i] == base64_digits_old[i]);
lastly, as pointed out by Roberto, the array needs to have 256 elements
in order to able access it as any unsigned char as an index; the
previous array had 255.
however, this array will only be accessed at indexes which are
isprint() || '=' (see `base64dec_getc()`), so reducing the size of the
array to the highest printable ascii char (127 AFAIK) + 1 might also be
a valid strategy.
This patch replaces the previous one I sent.
The following changes are made in this patch:
- Fix tracking of pressed buttons. Previously, pressing two buttons and
then releasing one would make st think no buttons are pressed, which
in particular broke MODE_MOUSEMOTION.
- Always send the lowest-numbered pressed button on motion events; when
no button is pressed for a motion event in MODE_MOUSEMANY, then send
a release. This matches the behaviour of xterm. (Previously, st sent
the most recently pressed button in the motion report.)
- Remove UB (?) access to potentially inactive struct member
e->xbutton.button of XEvent union.
- Fix (unlikely) possibility of overflow for large button numbers.
The one discrepancy I found between st and xterm is that xterm sometimes
encodes buttons with large numbers (>5) strangely. E.g., xterm reports
presses of buttons 8 and 9 as releases, whereas st properly (?) encodes
them as presses.
Overtyping the first half of a wide character with the
second half of a wide character results in display garbage.
This is because the trailing dummy is not cleaned up.
i.e. ATTR_WIDE, ATTR_WDUMMY, ATTR_WDUMMY
Here is a short script for demonstrating the behavior:
#!/bin/sh
alias printf=/usr/bin/printf
printf こんにちは!; sleep 2
printf '\x1b[5D'; sleep 2
printf へ; sleep 2
printf ' '; sleep 2
echo
from the XmbTextListToTextProperty(3) man page:
"If insufficient memory is available for the new value string, the functions
return XNoMemory. If the current locale is not supported, the functions return
XLocaleNotSupported. In both of these error cases, the functions do not set
text_prop_return."

In the current implementation, the slave PTY (assigned to the variable
`s') is always closed after duplicating it to file descriptors of
standard streams (0, 1, and 2). However, when the allocated slave PTY
`s' is already one of 0, 1, or 2, this causes unexpected closing of a
standard stream. The same problem occurs when the file descriptor of
the master PTY (the variable `m') is one of 0, 1, or 2.
In this patch, the original master PTY (m) is closed before it would
be overwritten by duplicated slave PTYs. The original slave PTY (s)
is closed only when it is not one of the stanrad streams.
The bits of uint signal in an XKeyEvent which concern the key group (keyboard
layout) are bits 13 and 14, as documented here:
https://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.7/doc/libX11/XKB/xkblib.html#Groups_and_Shift_Levels
In the older version, only bit 13 was marked as part of XK_SWITCH_MOD, this
causes issues for users who have more than two keymaps. the 14th bit is not
in ignoremod, key sequences are not caught by match(), if they switch to a third
or fourth keyboard.
These are typically mapped in X11 to the side-buttons (backward/forwards) on
the mouse. A comparison of the button numbers in SGR mode (first field):
st old:
0 1 2 64 65 66 67 68 69 70
st new (it is the same as xterm now):
0 1 2 64 65 66 67 128 129 130
A script to test and reproduce it, first argument is "h" (on) or "l" (off):
#!/bin/sh

I discovered recently that if an application running inside st tries to
send a DCS string, subsequent Unicode characters get messed up. For
example, consider the following test-case:
printf '\303\277\033P\033\\\303\277'
...where:
- \303\277 is the UTF-8 encoding of U+00FF LATIN SMALL LETTER Y WITH
DIAERESIS (ÿ).
- \033P is ESC P, the token that begins a DCS string.
- \033\\ is ESC \, a token that ends a DCS string.
- \303\277 is the same ÿ character again.
If I run the above command in a VTE-based terminal, or xterm, or
QTerminal, or pterm (PuTTY), I get the output:
ÿÿ
...which is to say, the empty DCS string is ignored. However, if I run
that command inside st (as of commit 9ba7ecf), I get:
ÿÿ
...where those last two characters are \303\277 interpreted as ISO8859-1
characters, instead of UTF-8.
I spent some time tracing through the state machines in st.c, and so far
as I can tell, this is how it works currently:
- ESC P sets the "ESC_DCS" and "ESC_STR" flags, indicating that
incoming bytes should be collected into the strescseq buffer, rather
than being interpreted.
- ESC \ sets the "ESC_STR_END" flag (when ESC is received), and then
calls strhandle() (when \ is received) to interpret the collected
bytes.
- If the collected bytes begin with 'P' (i.e. if this was a DCS
string) strhandle() sets the "ESC_DCS" flag again, confusing the
state machine.
If my understanding is correct, fixing the problem should be as easy as
removing the line that sets ESC_DCS from strhandle():
diff --git a/st.c b/st.c

I've tried the above patch and it fixes my problem, but I don't know if
it introduces any others.
"
Similar to the xterm AllowWindowOps option, this is an option to allow or
disallow certain (non-interactive) operations that can be insecure or
exploited.
NOTE: xsettitle() is not guarded by this because st does not support printing
the window title. Else this could be exploitable (arbitrary code execution).
Similar problems have been found in the past in other terminal emulators.
The sequence for base64-encoded clipboard copy is now guarded because it allows
a sequence written to the terminal to manipulate the clipboard of the running
user non-interactively, for example:
printf '\x1b]52;0;ZWNobyBoaQ0=\a'
Add the functionality back in for xterm compatibility, but do not expose the
capability in st.info (yet).
Some notes:
It was reverted because it caused some issues with ncurses in some
configurations, namely when using BSD padding (--enable-bsdpad, BSD_TPUTS) in
ncurses it caused issues with repeating digits.
A fix has been upstreamed in ncurses since snapshot 20200523. The fix is also
backported to OpenBSD -current.
This reverts commit e8392b282c.
There is currently a bug in older ncurses versions (like on OpenBSD) where a
fix for a bug with REP is not backported yet. Most likely in tty/tty_update.c:
Noticed while using lynx (which uses ncurses/curses).
To reproduce using lynx: echo "Z0000000" | lynx -stdin
or using the program:
int
main(void)
{
WINDOW *win;
win = initscr();
printw("Z0000000");
refresh();
sleep(5);
return 0;
}
This prints "ZZZZZZZ" (incorrectly).
The sequence \e[Nb prints the last printed char N (more) times if it's
printable, and it's ignored after newline or other control chars.
This is Ecma-048/ANSI-X3.6 sequence and not DEC VT. It's supported by
xterm, and ncurses uses it when possible, e.g. when TERM is xterm* (and
with this commit also st*).
xterm supports only codepoints<=255, possibly due to internal limits.
We support any value/codepoint which was placed in a cell.
To test:
- tput rep 65 4 -> prints 'AAAA'
- printf "\342\225\246\033[4b" -> prints U+2566 1+4 times.
St uses a very good hack where mouse wheel genereates ^Y and ^E,
that are the same keys that less and vi uses for backward and
fordward scrolling. Scroll, as many terminal emulators, use
shift+Prev/Next for scrolling, but it is also using ^E and ^Y
for scroling, characters that are reserved in the POSIX shell
in emacs mode for end of line and yanking, making scroll unsable
in st.
This patch adds a new hack, making shift+wheel returning the
same sequences than shift+Prev/Next, meaning that scroll or
any other similar program will not be able to differentiate
between them.
Fix an issue with incorrect (partial) written sequences when libc wcwidth() ==
-1. The sequence is updated to on wcwidth(u) == -1:
c = "\357\277\275"
but len isn't.
A way to reproduce in practise:
* st -o dump.txt
* In the terminal: printf '\xcd\xb8'
- This is codepoint 888, on OpenBSD it reports wcwidth() == -1.
- Quit the terminal.
- Look in dump.txt (partial written sequence of "UTF_INVALID").
This was introduced in:
" commit 11625c7166
Author: czarkoff@gmail.com <czarkoff@gmail.com>
Date: Tue Oct 28 12:55:28 2014 +0100
Replace character with U+FFFD if wcwidth() is -1
Helpful when new Unicode codepoints are not recognized by libc."
Change:
Remove setting the sequence. If this happens to break something, another
solution could be setting len = 3 for the sequence.
st could easily tear/flicker with animation or other unattended
output. This commit eliminates most of the tear/flicker.
Before this commit, the display timing had two "modes":
- Interactively, st was waiting fixed `1000/xfps` ms after forwarding
the kb/mouse event to the application and before drawing.
- Unattended, and specifically with animations, the draw frequency was
throttled to `actionfps`. Animation at a higher rate would throttle
and likely tear, and at lower rates it was tearing big frames
(specifically, when one `read` didn't get a full "frame").
The interactive behavior was decent, but it was impossible to get good
unattended-draw behavior even with carefully chosen configuration.
This commit changes the behavior such that it draws on idle instead of
using fixed latency/frequency. This means that it tries to draw only
when it's very likely that the application has completed its output
(or after some duration without idle), so it mostly succeeds to avoid
tear, flicker, and partial drawing.
The config values minlatency/maxlatency replace xfps/actionfps and
define the range which the algorithm is allowed to wait from the
initial draw-trigger until the actual draw. The range enables the
flexibility to choose when to draw - when least likely to flicker.
It also unifies the interactive and unattended behavior and config
values, which makes the code simpler as well - without sacrificing
latency during interactive use, because typically interactively idle
arrives very quickly, so the wait is typically minlatency.
While it only slighly improves interactive behavior, for animations
and other unattended-drawing it improves greatly, as it effectively
adapts to any [animation] output rate without tearing, throttling,
redundant drawing, or unnecessary delays (sounds impossible, but it
works).
St used to use backspace as BS until the commit 230d0c8, but due
to general lack of knowledge of lusers, we moved to the most common
configuration in linux to avoid answering the same question 3 times
per month. With the most common configuration we have a backspace
that returns a DEL, and we have a Delete key that doesn't return a
DEL character neither a BS.
When dealing with devices connected using a serial line (or even
with Plan9) it is more common Backspace as BS and Delete as DEL. For
this reason, st is not always the best tool when you talk with a
serial device.
This patch adds new terminfo entries for Backspace as BS and Delete
as DEL. A patch for confg.h is also added, to make easier switch
between both configurations.
When a read operation returns 0 then it means that we arrived to the end of the
file, and new reads will return 0 unless you do some other operation such as
lseek(). This case happens with USB-232 adapters when they are unplugged.
Scroll is a program that stores all the lines of its child and be used in st as
a way of implementing scrollback.
This solution is much better than implementing the scrollback in st itself
because having a different program allows to use it in any other program
without doing modifications to those programs.
This line didn't work at mshortcuts at config.h:
/* mask button function arg release */
{ ShiftMask, Button2, selpaste, {.i = 0}, 1 },
and now it does work.
The issue was that XButtonEvent.state is "the logical state ... just prior
to the event", which means that on release the state has the Button2Mask
bit set because button2 was down just before it was released.
The issue didn't manifest with the default shift + middle-click on release
(to override mouse mode) because its specified modifier is XK_ANY_MOD, at
which case match(...) ignores any specific bits and simply returns true.
The issue also doesn't manifest on press, because prior to the event
Button<N> was not down and its mask bit is not set.
Fix by filtering out the mask of the button which we're currently matching.
We could have said "well, that's how button events behave, you should
use ShiftMask|Button2Mask for release", but this both not obvious to
figure out, and specifically here always filtering does not prevent
configuring any useful modifiers combination. So it's a win-win.

Strings which an application sends to the terminal in OSC, DCS, etc
are typically small (title, colors, etc) but one exception is OSC 52
which copies text to the clipboard, and is used for instance by tmux.
Previously st cropped these strings at 512 bytes, which for OSC 52
limited the copied text to 382 bytes (remaining buffer space before
base64). This made it less useful than it can be.
Now it's a dynamic growing buffer. It remains allocated after use,
resets to 512 when a new string starts, or leaked on exit.
Resetting/deallocating the buffer right after use (at strhandle) is
possible with some more code, however, it doesn't always end up used,
and to cover those cases too will require even more code, so resetting
only on new string is good enough for now.
STRescape holds strings in escape sequences such as OSC and DCS, and
its buffer is 512 bytes.
If the input is too big then trailing chars are ignored, but the test
was off-by-1 such that it took 510 chars instead of 511 (before a
terminating NULL is added).
Now the full size can be utilized.
Previously, base64dec checked terminating input '\0' every 4 calls to
base64dec_getc, where the latter progressed one or more chars on each
call, and could read past '\0' in the way it was used.
The input to base64dec currently comes only from OSC 52 escape seq
(copy to clipboard), and reading past '\0' or even past the buffer
boundary was easy to trigger.
Also, even if we could trust external input to be valid base64, there
are different base64 standards, and not all of them require padding
to 4 bytes blocks (using trailing '=' chars).
It didn't affect short OSC 52 strings because the buffer is initialized
to 0's, so typically it did stop within the buffer, but if the string
was trimmed to fit (the buffer is 512 bytes) then it did also read past
the end of the buffer, and the decoded suffix ended up arbitrary.
This patch makes base64dec_getc not progress past '\0', and instead
produce fake trailing padding of '='.
Additionally, at base64dec, if padding is detected at the first or
second byte of a quartet, then we identify it as invalid and abort
(a valid quartet has at least two leading non-padding bytes).
For WM_CLASS this is mentioned in the ICCCM docs
https://tronche.com/gui/x/icccm/sec-4.html#s-4.1.2.5
(third sentence).
When changing the WM_CLASS from the command line, this is necessary for
window managers to pick it up before applying class-based rules.
The recent mouse shurtcuts commits allow customization, but ignore
forcemousemod mask (default: shift) as a modifier, for no good reason
other than following the behavior of the KB shortcuts.
Allow using forcemousemod too, which now can be used to invoke
different shortcuts, though the automatic effect of forcemousemod will
be lost for buttons which use mask with forcemousemod.
E.g. the default is:
static uint forcemousemod = ShiftMask;
...
{ XK_ANY_MOD, Button4, ttysend, {.s = "\031"} },
...
where ttysend will be invoked for button4 with any mod when not in mouse
mode, and with shift when in mouse mode.
Now it's possible to do this:
{ ShiftMask, Button4, ttysend, {.s = "foo"} },
{ XK_ANY_MOD, Button4, ttysend, {.s = "\031"} },
Which will invoke ttysend("foo") while shift is held and ttysend("\031")
otherwise. Shift still overrides mouse mode, but will now send "foo".
Previously with this setup the second binding was always invoked
because the forceousemod mask was always removed from the event.
Buttons which don't use forcemousemod behave the same as before.
This is useful e.g. for the scrollback mouse patch, which wants to
configure shift+wheel for scrollback, while keeping the normal behavior
without shift.
Because selpaste is activated on release, a release flag was added to
mouse shortcuts which controls whether activation is on press/release,
and selpaste binding to button2 was moved to config.h .
button1 remains the only hardcoded mouse button - for selection + copy.
Allow forceselmod to override all mouse shortcuts rather than only
selection, and rename it to forcemousemod as it's now more appropriate.
This will affect mouse shortcuts which use mask other than XK_ANY_MOD.
This does not affect the default behavior because the default mouse
shortcuts (wheel) use XK_ANY_MOD, where forceselmod already activated
the override also before this change.
Previously, if a mouse shortcut was configured with a specific mod and
forceselmod was held, then the shortcut did not execute unless the
configured mod included forceselmod.

This complements the work done in d4928ed, allowing the user to specify
the preprocessor flags with the CPPFLAGS environment variable. This is
useful for example to specify preprocessor macros with -D.
CFLAGS could be used instead, but CPPFLAGS is more correct and is expected
to be honored in some cases. For example, the helper scripts to build
Debian packages make use of CPPFLAGS, but the variable is currently
being ignored unless manually appended to CFLAGS.

An example where the new behaviour makes more sense:
Suppose some text is formatted with ATTR_FAINT for red for the foreground, so it
is rendered in a dark red. In that case, when selected with the mouse, the
intended behaviour is that foreground and background color are swapped: so the
selection should be rendered in dark red and the text in the default background
color.
Before this patch, what happened was that the selection would be in normal red
and the text in the darkened background color, making it almost unreadable.
For an example application that uses the FAINT attribute, try dmesg from
util-linux with color support, it uses FAINT for segfault messages.

in the underlying glyph (e.g. italic text), the mode is always
ATTR_NULL [1]. At [2] you can find a screenshot that shows the
implications. Other terminals (at least vte-based, such as
XFCE-terminal) keep some modes for the cursor. I find the current
behaviour very disruptive, so here is a patch that keeps a few
(arbitrarily chosen) modes for the cursor.

CTRL+SHIFT is an impossible combination in the terminal world
(0x20 | x & 0x1F), so it is perfect to be used for internals
shortcuts of terminals, and being a double combination
reduces the prossibility of having comflicts.
XftFontMatch does display-specific font configuration (commit 528241a).
Nice. Unfortunately, when we switched from FcFontMatch, we also stopped
storing the post-Fc{Config,Default}Substitute FcPattern for future
lookups. The result is that if a glyph isn't found in the primary font,
secondary font lookups use the original FcPattern, not the configured
one. If you have custom fontconfig rules (like me), this can be
disappointing.
I basically just copied the guts out of XftFontMatch[1] and saved
the intermediate configured FcPattern. Could be related to the bug that
inspired commit 4242027.

When using st with screen, I've bound next, prev, new screen to
combinations like Ctrl-Alt-Right,Left,Down; xterm and (u)rxvt work fine
when this combination of modifiers is pressed, st does not seem to
transport all of them; a single modifier key is fine (e.g. Ctrl-Up,
Alt-Down etc., but combinations are not). While I'm not terribly
familiar with this, I have tried to hack config.h in a more or less
systematic way to generate the expected sequences.
Hi,
When I specify a font by point size (I'm using "Inconsolata:size=12"),
characters that are substituted from another font because they are not in the
main one appear too small. Doing a zoom reset fixes it. For example:
Before: http://i.imgur.com/G4Mfv4X.png
After: http://i.imgur.com/PMDhfQA.png
I found that adding the pixel size (acquired from the initial font load) to the
pattern then reloading the font fixes the problem. I'm not sure if this is a
proper fix, though.
The two functions strdump(), csidump() are called to show errors and
their output is introduced by a message printed to stderr. Thus, it it
more consistent to have them print to stderr.
Moreover stderr is unbuffered (at least on Linux), making problems
immediately visible.
These sequences are used to operate with sixels, but they are still
str sequences, so they are finished with \a, ST or with a C1 control
code. This patch also disables utf8 handling for the case of sixels.
There are some ocasions where we want to disable the enconding/decoding of utf8, mainly
because it adds an important overhead. This is partial patch for ESC % G and ESC % @,
where they modified the way that st reads and write from/to the serial line, but it does
not modifies how it interacts with the X window part.
The default config specifies BackSpace as "\177". The default behavior
should persist across modifier keys, commonly Mod1 (Alt or Meta) which
is widely used to delete a word on readline and text editors, notably
Emacs.
This will make Alt+BackSpace behaves as expected, i.e. sends "\033\177"
instead of "\033\010" as previous default behavior.

LEN(str) is one larger than strlen(str) because it also counts the zero
terminator. The original code would include the .notdef glyph (since it'll
try to encode character 0, which gets encoded to the .notdef glyph) when
measuring the average dimensions of printable ascii characters.
This causes problems with fonts like GNU Unifont where the .notdef glyph is
not the same width as the usual half-width characters.

Before the fix the cursor wouldn't obey if it's in a selection. If it is
inside it will now change to the reverse. This patch also adds that the
defaultcs will be reversed for the manually drawn cursors.
Before this patch, when pasting over BUFSIZE (8192 bytes here), st would
do the following:
\e[200~...8192 bytes...\e[201~\e[200~...remaining bytes...\e[201~
With this patch, the start marker is only sent when the offset is 0 (at
the beginning of selnotify) and the end marker is only sent when the
remaining bytes to read are 0 (at the end).
For short pastes, both conditions are true in the same iteration.
For long pastes, it removes the extra markers in the middle, keeping the
intended wrapping:
\e[200~...8192 bytes......remaining bytes...\e[201~

gcc would warn about an unused result. We know it is 0 and dup()
can't fail in these circumstances, as we closed fd0 previously.
Using dup2() to do the same saves one line and shuts gcc up, bringing
us a clean build back.
When a line has no any character linelen is 0, so last = &term.line[y][MIN(lastx, linelen-1)]
generated a pointer to the end of the previous line. The best thing we can do in this case
is to add a newline, because we don't have a glyph to print (and consult its state of
wrapping).
wcwidth() returns -1 for all the non visible characters, but it doesn't
necessarilly mean that they are incorrect. It only means that they are not
printable.

For a higher usefulness of the utf8strchr function, the index of the
UTF-8 character could be returned in addition with a Rune instead of a
char*. Since utf8strchr is currently only used by ISDELIM I didn't
bother to increase the complexity.
Here's a patch that fixes a bug when calling `makedrawglyphfontspecs'
in `drawregion'. Wasn't offseting the pointer into the input glyphs
array by `x1'. The bug isn't causing any problems currently, because
`drawregion' is always called with `x1' and `y1' values of 0, but if
this ever changes in the future, the bug would certainly cause some
problems.
I have another patch here for review that optimizes the performance of
glyph drawing, primarily when using non-unit kerning values, and fixes a
few other minor issues. It's dependent on the earlier patch from me that
stores unicode codepoints in a Rune type, typedef'd to uint_least32_t.
This patch is a pretty big change to xdraws so your scrutiny is
appreciated.
First, some performance numbers. I used Yu-Jie Lin termfps.sh shell
script to benchmark before and after, and you can find it in the
attachments. On my Kaveri A10 7850k machine, I get the following
results:

As you can see, while the improvements for fonts with unit-kerning is
marginal, there's a huge ~81x performance increase with the patch when
using kerning values other than 1.0.
So what does the patch do?
The `xdraws' function would render each glyph one at a time if non-unit
kerning values were configured, and this was the primary cause of the
slow down. Xft provides a handful of functions which allow you to render
multiple characters or glyphs at time, each with a unique <x,y> position,
so it was simply a matter of massaging the data into a format that would
allow us to use one of these functions.
I've split `xdraws' up into two functions. In the first pass with
`xmakeglyphfontspecs' it will iterate over all of the glyphs in a given
row and it will build up an array of corresponding XftGlyphFontSpec
records. Much of the old logic for resolving fonts for glyphs using Xft
and fontconfig went into this function.
The second pass is done with `xrenderglyphfontspecs' which contains the
old logic for determining colors, clearing the background, and finally
rendering the array of XftGlyphFontSpec records.
There's a couple of other things that have been improved by this patch.
For instance, the UTF-32 codepoints in the Line's were being re-encoded
back into UTF-8 strings to be passed to `xdraws' which in turn would then
decode back to UTF-32 to verify that the Font contained a matching glyph
for the code point. Next, the UTF-8 string was being passed to
`XftDrawStringUtf8' which internally mallocs a scratch buffer and decodes
back to UTF-32 and does the lookup of the glyphs all over again.
This patch gets rid of all of this redundant round-trip encoding and
decoding of characters to be rendered and only looks up the glyph index
once (per font) during the font resolution phase. So this is probably
what's responsible for the marginal improvements seen when kerning values
are kept to 1.0.
I imagine there are other performance improvements here too, not seen in
the above benchmarks, if the user has lots of non-ASCII code plane characters
on the screen, or several different fonts are being utilized during
screen redraw.
Anyway, if you see any problems, please let me know and I can fix them.
When user clicks LMB, one character is selected, but will not be copied
to selection until the user moves cursor a bit. Therefore, the character
should not be highlighted as selected yet.
Before the patch, the trick was not to mark line as dirty to avoid
highlighting it. However, if user has already selected something and
clicks in line that contains selection, selclear sets the line as dirty
and one character is highlighted when it should not.
This patch replaces dirty trick with explicit check for sel.mode inside
selected().
This patch also prevents sel.mode from increasing beyond 2. It is almost
impossible, but sel.mode may overflow if mouse is moved around for too
long while selecting.

Debatable whether an error here should case exit(EXIT_FAILURE). Just
preserving the existing behaviour for now.
Not always is desirable to create a pseudo terminal, and some times
we want to open a terminal emulator over a tty line. With this new
patch is possible to do someting like:
$ st -l /dev/ttyS0 115200
Without this option was needed to launch another terminal emulator
over st (for example minicom, picocom, cu, ...).
ICCCM mandates the use of real timestamps to interact with the
selection, to rule out race conditions if the clients are run at
different speeds. I have implemented the low hanging fruit, putting the
timestamps into text selection. Also, ICCCM mandates a check for whether
XSetSelectionOwner() worked. Not sure my version is correct, though.
tmoveto resets CURSOR_WRAPNEXT.
Simple testcase:
for i in $(seq 1 200); do
printf '\t.';
usleep 100000;

In st executing this script causes @ and . to overwrite each other in
the last column.
XFilterEvent usually filters KeyPress events according to input method.
At this point the window is not mapped. The only events that we process
are ConfigureNotify and MapNotify. They should not be filtered by input
method.
strsep() is not a POSIX function, and it means that every system
needs different defines to expose it. If the prototype of strsep
is not exposed then an ugly int/pointer is done and it might mean
a crash. The best solution?, to remove the strsep and make a custom
loop. If C programmers cannot do this kind of loops without calling
a library function, then maybe we should move all the suckless
software to Java.
Some programs can only deal with XA_STRING, and it makes impossible st
be able of copying to them. This patch makes st answer also to XA_STRING,
althought it sends utf8 strings. It is not a problem because moderm
applications must support utf8.

Now there is a distinction between the primary and clipboard selection. With
Mod + Shift + c/v the clipboard is handled. The old Insert behavious does
reside.
The unicode long is added to the cache. So when fontconfig does fall back to
the default font (where there is no easy way to find this out from the
pattern) it isn't reloaded.
ncurses wasn't able to detect the delete-character key as KEY_DC. This
patch fixes that.
kdch1 was defined as "\0177", but terminfo(5) states:
... characters may be given as three octal digits after a \.
The delete-character key is correctly defined in config.def.h.
Use the terminfo delay syntax ($<x>) in our flash capability to avoid
hardcoding a fixed delay in redraw() when called from tsetmode() with
DECSCNM.
We need to turn on the npc capability so that delays are made with
xon/xoff instead of padding characters.
When MODE_INSERT is set we'd shift characters on the same
line forward before inserting our character in tputc().
This did not account for wide characters where width != 1.
This patch makes it so we shift the correct amount.
In tputc(), when a character wasn't large enough to fit
on the current line, we would call tnewline() to place it on
the next line. Unfortunately, we weren't resetting our glyph
pointer and this caused memory corruption when a
wide character (width == 2) was being written. This patch
resets our glyph pointer after calls to tnewline().
If blinktimeout is set to a value greater than 1000, pselect will
receive a timeout argument with tv_nsec greater than 1E9 (1 sec), and
fail, making st crash. This patch just ensures that the timespec
structure is correctly filled with a value properly decomposed between
tv_sec and tv_nsec.

Trailing whitespaces are trimmed when copying from normal selection and
rectangular selection on lines that have their last character included
or on the left of the selection. It leads to inconsistent behaviors when
copying the exact same text from the left and right window in
applications with vertical splits.
This patch solves this issue by always trimming the selection.
- POSIX states the SHELL environment variable "... shall represent a
pathname of the user's preferred command language interpreter." As
such, st should check for its presence when deciding what shell to
use; just as HOME can be defined to override one's passwd-defined home
directory, a user should also be able to override their passwd-defined
shell using the SHELL environment variable.
These are needed by ncurses to correctly handle the switch between line
drawing. The changes to the alternative characterset code already fixed the
urwid hack.
The XBell() call currently used when a bell is recieved sends a message
to the X server, but if the X server doesn't know how to sound it,
it just gets ignored and I have not been able to find anywhere in x.org's
code a way to configure the action that the server does.
However, if you use XkbBell() then you can have a process listening for
the XkbBellNotifyEvent that is produced and either alert you visually or
play an audio file or whatever you want as your notification. You have
to include one more header file but the function seems to be compiled as
part of Xlib, at least on my installation.

St has enacs, which must be printed if a program requires to use
the alternate charset (graphic charset), that in st case was to
select charset graphic for G1, but it was not useful
at all because smacs and rmacs were always redefining the value
of G0.
SI (0x0F or ^O) means Shift In, and it selects G1 charset definition,
and SO (0x0E or ^N) means Shift Out, and it selects G0 charset
definition, but st was doing just the inverse.
St runs an interactive shell and not a login shell, and it means
that profile is not loaded. The default terminal configuration
in some system is not the correct for st, but since profile is
not loaded there is no way of getting a script configures the
correct values.
St doesn't update the utmp files, this is the job of another
suckless tool, utmp. Utmp also opens a login shell (it is the
logical behaviour when you create a new user record) it is a
good option execute utmp and then get a correct input in
utmp, wtmp and lastlog file, and execute the content of the
profile.
When getting selected text, lines that were wrapped because of length
ought not include the wrapping newline in the selection.
This comes up, for example, when copying a bash command that is long
enough to wrap from the console and pasting it back into the console.
The extra newline breaks it.
Similiarly, changes behavior when trimming whitespace from the end of a
physical line to only do so if the line does not wrap. Otherwise we are
trimming whitespace from the middle of a logical line, which may change
its meaning.

This capability indicates that underscore '_' overstrike current
letter under the cursor. It means that you can generate a
underline 'b' using 'b^H_', because it writes a 'b' then backward

so it is an error to have this capability.
tclearregion() was clearing regions using spaces and the current
attributes of the terminal. It was correct with all the modes excepct
underline, because they didn't affect the space character, but in
the case of underline it was a problem. A easy way of seeing this
problem is writing this in the last line of the terminal:
tput smul ; echo first; tput rmul; echo second; echo third
Fist was underlined, and second and third were not underlined, but
the spaces at the right of second was underlined becuause in the

By the recommendation of FRIGN I refactored xsetcolorname to remove the
unnecessary r, g, b variables when allocating a new color. Colors are
now freed and set to the new color. A die() should not happen here. Oth‐
erwise it is easy for applications to kill st. St should be resilent to
malicious input.
Second this patch standardises the naming of »color«. There is no
»colour« here. Maybe in some parts of the world.
I mainly improved the slightly off algorithm used to load colours in the 256-colour-space and
removed unnecessary local values (r,g,b,colour).
"colour" is not necessary as a punchbag for XftColorAlloc[Value,Name], as they don't mess with
the result-adress until they are absolutely sure everything worked out[0].
Being at it, I changed the error-returns for AllocValue to dies (just like in xloadcols()), as
a failure is most likely an OOM-situation you better catch early.
In case of an invalid name everything stays the same.

ATTR_GFX was used long time ago to detect when terminal was in
graphic mode. Today graphic mode is implemented using a charset
pointer, so ATTR_GFX is not needed anymore because graphic
condition can be detected directly checking if current charset
is GRAPHICS C0.
This patch fixes the bug introduced in
8f11e1cd03
To reproduce the bug:
1. Save cursor: printf '\e[s'
2. Load cursor: printf '\e[u'
3. Resize st window.
4. Load cursor again: printf '\e[u'
The patch 53105cf modified how control codes were detected, because
it tried to handle also C1 control codes (0x80-0x9f), that have
upper bit to 1, so they are multi byte character in utf8.
Code was checking the value of width in order to known that after
decoding the unicode point had a width of 1 byte, but it as incorrect
because this width is the columnb width.
Once a sequence is completed term.esc must return to 0, so
instead of repeating this expression in all the cases is
better put it at the end of the block.
From http://www.vt100.net/docs/vt510-rm/chapter4:
*The VT510 ignores all following characters until it receives a
SUB, ST, or any other C1 control character.
So OSC, PM and APC sequence ends with a SUB (it cancels the sequence
and show a question mark as error), ST or any another C1 (8 bits)
code, or their C0 (7 bits) equivalent sequences (at this moment we
do not handle C1 codes, but we should). But it is also said that:
Cancel CAN
1/8 Immediately cancels an escape sequence, control sequence,
or device control string in progress. In this case, the
VT510 does not display any error character.
Escape ESC
1/11 Introduces an escape sequence. ESC also cancels any escape
sequence, control sequence, or device control string in
progress.
Currently tputc handles the case of too long control string waiting for
the end of control string.
Another case is when there is ESC character is encountered but is not
followed by '\\'. In this case st stops processing control string,
but ESC character is ignored.
After this patch st processes ESC characters in control strings properly.
Test case:
printf '\e]0;abc\e[1mBOLD\e[0m'
Also ^[\ is actually processed in the code that handles ST.
According to ECMA-048 ST stands for STRING TERMINATOR and is used to
close control strings.
Thanks to Yuri Karaban for suggesting this!
These changes make -g correspond to <cols>x<rows> and honor it so non-tiling
window managers can work with the size hints afterwards. It also adds a -i
flag to force the window size. This is needed so -g keeps being useful in dwm.
The large and repeated expression used in memmove to indirect
the line can be simplified using a pointer, that makes more
clear where begins and where ends the movement.
Current CSI parsing code uses strtol to parse arguments and allows them
to be negative. Negative argument is not properly handled in tdeletechar
and tinsertblank and results in memory corruption in memmove.
Reproduce with printf '\e[-500@'
Patch also removes special handling for corner case and simplifies
the code.
Removed
term.dirty[term.c.y] = 1
because tclearregion sets dirty flag.
tscrollup and tscrolldown do not use tsetdirt, but their code is
equivalent to
tsetdirt(orig, term.bot-n);
tsetdirt(orig+n, term.bot);
tclearregion also marks cleared lines as dirty.
In tscrolldown it sets lines from term.bot-n+1 to term.bot dirty, and in
tscrollup it sets lines from orig to orig+n-1 dirty.
In both functions all lines from orig to term.bot are effectively set
dirty, but in tscrolldown lines from orig+n to term.bot are set dirty
twice, and in tscrollup lines from orig to term.bot-n are set dirty
twice.
These patches make it clear which lines are set dirty and sets them
dirty once in each funciton.
techo compares signed char to '\x20'. Any character with code less then
'\x20' is treated as control character. This way characters with MSB
set to 1 are considered control characters too.
Also this patch makes techo display DEL character as ^?.
To reprocuce the bug, enable echo mode using printf '\e[12l',
then type DEL character or any non-ASCII character.
I found the SERRNO Macro slightly confusing, since you have to look
it up, if you don't know it already. A web search showed it does
not seem to be any kind of standard. Also there was no reason in
the commit log when it was introduced in 2009. As you can see it
also leads to new patches, which don't use this macro (probably the
author did not know about it).
I don't like this alt screen thing, but when
allowaltscreen == 0, the cursor is still saved
and restored after calling 'less' (or 'man').
This patch makes allowaltscreen == 0 usable.
Backspace key must generate the backspace character (\010) and
Delete key must generate the delete character (\0177). In
some systems the kernel configuration for erasing previous character
is \0177, so some programs (for example cat, ed, mail, ...), can not
understand the correct meaning of backspace. In this cases it is only
needed this command:
stty erase
This patch replaces current utf decoder with a new one, which is ~50
lines shorter and should be easier to understand. Parsing 5 and 6
sequences, if necessary, requires trivial modification of UTF_SIZ
constant and utfbyte, utfmask, utfmin, utfmax arrays.
This sequence print the current line. It is different to the
'printer on' sequence, where all the characters that arrive to the
terminal are printer. Here only the ascii characters are printed.
The patch to add w3img support destroys our way to handle fps and so stop
wasting resources on fast scrolling. Due to w3img being a hack to display
images in an ugly way, is there no need to support this. Use some real way to
display images.
Before this patch draw() calls drawregion which calls xdraws and then
updates whole window in one call thus overdrawing anything drawn by
w3mimgdisplay. After moving XCopyArea to xdraws it only updates the
regions which are being updated by XftDraw* functions. It may do a few
more calls to XCopyArea with this patch.

Sorry for another duplicated mail. I found the patch is malformed
significantly. I've been away from my laptop for a while, so I'm quite
unfamiliar with the settings on this system...
sbase did some interesting modifications to arg.h (basically it
was fixed an incorrect use of the _ namespace), and this commit
take this last version for st.
This fixes a bug that the parent tty gets resized whenever you launch
st through command line.
The problem was that ioctl was resizing cmdfd before it gets
initialized in ttynew. Since cmdfd is a global variable, its initial
value is 0, and consequently stdin was being resized.
rmul means "exit underline mode", so a full reset of all
the attributes is not the correct way of exiting from
underline mode, because it is going to modify also another
attributes not related.
Since st is using now int32_t and uint32_t the inclusion of
stdint or inttype is mandatory, because in other case the
definition of these new types will not be known by the
compiler.
vt100 has support for two defined charset, G0 and G1. Each charset
can be defined, but in each moment is selected only one of both
charset. This is usually used selecting a national charset in G0
and graphic charset in G1, so you can switch between graphic
charset and text charset without losing the national charset
already defined.
st hasn't support for national charsets, because it is an utf8
based terminal emulator, but it has support for graphic
charset because it is heavily used, but it only supports G0,
without understanding G1 selection sequences, which causes some
programs in some moments can print some garbage in the screen.
This patch adds a fake support for multiple charset definitions,
where we only support graphic charset and us-ascii charset, but
we allow more of one charset definition.
This patch allow define G0 until G3 charsets, but only accepts
select G0 or G1, and it accepts some national charset definitions
but all of them are mapped to us-ascii.
st was assuming that save/restore cursor position was independent
of the screen that was shown in each moment, but it is not true,
because each screen has a different save/restore buffer. This
patch fixes it.
OpenBSD 5.3 amd64 release version with the most current st
version from git, crash and dump core when selecting multiple
lines whith the cursor. This happens, because on line 964
of st.c (gp-1)->mode is accessed, although gp is still
pointing at the beginning of the array term.line[y] (see
line 939 for initialization of gp).
This patch enables bracketed paste mode (
http://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs/ctlseqs.html#Bracketed%20Paste%20Mode
).
It's mainly useful for text editors to disable line wrapping and auto
indentation when text is being pasted, rather than typed from keyboard.
On the emulator side, it is supported by at least xterm, urxvt,
gnome-terminal, putty, iterm2; and I have a patch for konsole.
On the application side, vim can be configured easily to handle this, and
I have pending patches for mcedit and joe. Probably many others also
support it.
* Button number in X10 mode:
I believe the button - 1 came from "C b is button - 1" from [0].
However, above this section, it states
"Normally, parameters (such as pointer poisition and button number)
for all mouse tracking escape sequences generated by xterm encode
numeric parameters in a single character as value+32. For example, !
specifies the value 1."
Also, from the description of SGR,
"The encoded button value in this case does not add 32 since that
was useful only in the X10 scheme for ensuring that the byte
containing the button value is a printable code."
This suggests that we should still add 32 to the button value when in
MODE_MOUSEX10.
* No button release reporting in X10 mode:
"X10 compatibility mode sends an escape sequence only on button press,
encoding the location and the mouse button pressed."
* Fix MODE_MOUSEMOTION:
Currently, motion reporting is skipped when oldbutton == 3
(corresponding to no button being pressed). However, oldbutton is
only set on a button press, which will never be 3.

The alternate screen is not properly initialized when st starts. To see
this, set defaultbg in config.h to anything other than 0 (for example, swap
defaultfg and defaultbg), and run:
./st -e sh -c 'tput smcup; read'
You should see that the top-left 80x24 rectangle is black (or whatever
colorname[0] is), while the rest of the screen (if any) has the desired
colorname[defaultbg] color.
The attached patch fixes this by initializing term.c.attr in tnew() before
calling tresize(). It also removes the unnecessary xcalloc() calls, which
misled me on this bug hunt since it is really tclearregion() which
initializes term.lines and term.alt in tresize().
Hello.
I reviewed and tested commit 7e3cff3, and made a patch that fixes some
problems in it.
1. There's a semicolon after an if statement, which is obviously a
typo.
2. The current way of calculating text position in "xdraws" yields
inconsistent results in some cases. This is due to the use of
"font->width", which varies. Instead, "xw.cw" has to be used as the
character width.
Sincerely,
Eon
Some programs don't check the value of km and use smm and rmm
capabilites, and they cause the terminal change to meta enabled
mode even in cases where is not desirable.
Allmost all people is using the terminal waiting that meta sends
escape, so rmm and smm are not needed. If someone needs meta
sets 8 bit he can use the correct terminfo definition in TERM.
tdefcolor() returns -1 on error, while its return type is
unsigned long. At the same time, line 1724 and 1731 are checking the
positivity of its unsigned return value.
Colors definition can be changed using a OSC sequence, so
we have to reload them if we want be sure all the colors
are the correct.
Could be desirable free the colors allocated due to rgb
colors and inverse colors (XftColorAllocValues in xdraws),
but it is impossible due we use the same structure for all
of them.
This patch uses the bit 24 in the color descriptor as an indicator
of RGB color, so we can take the values and generating the XftColour
directly in xdraws.
I made a patch that improves the performance of font caching mechanism.
This is based on a funny behaviour of FontConfig: it was handling
FcCharSet in a somewhat unexpected way.
So, we are currently adding "a character" to a new FcCharSet, and then
add it to a FcPattern. However, if we toss the FcPattern to FontConfig,
it loads the entire language(charset) that contains the character we
gave. That is, we don't always have to load a new font for each unknown
character. Instead, we can reused cached fonts, and this significantly
reduces the number of calls to extremely slow FontConfig matching
functions.
One more thing. I found that, in libXft, there's a function called
XftCharExists. XftCharIndex internally calls this function, and
does more stuffs if the character does exist. Since the returned index
is never used in st, we should call XftCharExists instead of
XftCharIndex. Please note that I already made this change in the patch.
To be more specific, now tty creation is delayed until X window is
actually mapped; last ConfigureNotify before mapping determines
initial tty size.
Please report problems if there are any.
There were two problems with match denfinition.
1) There was a forward declaration in the form:
static inline bool match(uint, uint);
but later the function was defined as:
inline bool
match(uint mask, uint state) {
This causes that there were two different functions in the code, one local
and inline, and other inline but extern. All was working without problems
due to we were using -Os, and the compiler was using the extern definition
and it was no expanding the static declaration. If you removed the -Os flag,
then you got linker errors due it was no able to find the static definition
of the static declaration.
2) The mask checking was incorrect because we were doing the test:
(state & mask) != state
and this test only was saying that at least all the enabled bits of state
were enabled also in mask, but no all the possible bits in mask. This was
the origin of the bug reported by Xavier Cartron, where he said it was
possible activated some shortcuts with some of the modifiers defined in the
config.h file.
draw is the function which update the Xwindow with the information st has,
and it is designed in a way that it must be called once in the main loop
(run function), and calling it in other places it is a waste of time.
The way st knows if there is a selection activated is checking if sel.ob.x
is equal to -1. In some parts of the code the way of disabling the selection
was only setting it to -1, but after it you can't be sure if the selection
is clearing from the terminal representation, because it is necessary mark
all the lines affected by the selection as dirty. Already there is a functon
which perform this task, selclear.
We're now clearing empty areas with spaces, so there is no point to check
if character contains non-empty string.

Now double-click+dragging automatically snaps both ends to word boundaries

The copying and pasting in the terminald and GUI world is flawed. Due to the
discussion on the mailinglist it seems that sending '\n' is what GUIs expect
and '\r' what terminal applications want. St now implements that behaviour.

revisions make me having to reapply them. Then such errors appear.

The commit 'Fixing some key issues with mc' fix the problem where mc didn't

Home key in ansi mode should generate the sequence CUP (\033[H) to 0,0 (home

This patch adds the keys for the keypad (in both modes, application mode or
ansi mode) and function keys. It uses the same convention than xterm and
instead of using the XK_Fxx values it generates them using F1-F12 and
modifiers. For example:
F1 -> ^[OP
F1 + Shift = F13 -> ^[[1;2P
F1 + Control = F25 -> ^[[1;5P
F1 + Mod2 = F37 -> ^[[1;6P
F1 + Mod1 = F49 -> ^[[1;3P
F1 + Mod3 = F61 -> ^[[1;4P
It is also important notice than the terminfo capability kIC (shifted insert
key) only can be generated using the keypad keyboard, because the shorcut
for selection paste is using the same combination.
After this path the number of elements in the Key array becomes high, and
maybe a sequencial search is not enough efficient now.

Sequences like DECSC, DECRC, ESC [?1047l or ESC [?1047h save and restore
cursor attributes, than taken from vt100 manual are:
Save Cursor (DECSC) ESC 7
===========================
Saves the following in terminal memory.
- cursor position
- graphic rendition
- character set shift state
- state of wrap flag
- state of origin mode
Restore Cursor (DECRC) ESC 8
===========================
Restores the states described for (DECSC) above. If none of these
characteristics were saved, the cursor moves to home position; origin
mode is reset; no character attributes are assigned; and the default
character set mapping is established.
This implies that hide attribute of the cursor should not be saved/restored
in these sequences. The best way to fix this problem is moving hide
attribute into the terminal mode, instead of having it in the cursor state.

emulators, and I think it is because they want be conforms with vttest which
uses this sequence in some tests.

ENQ 005 Transmit answerback message.
BEL 007 Sound bell tone from keyboard.
BS 010 Move the cursor to the left one character position,
unless it is at the left margin,
in which case no action occurs.
HT 011 Move the cursor to the next tab stop,
or to the right margin if no further tab stops
are present on the line.
LF 012 This code causes a line feed or
a new line operation. (See new line mode).
VT 013 Interpreted as LF.

XON 021 Causes terminal to resume transmission.
XOFF 023 Causes terminal to stop transmitted all codes
except XOFF and XON.
CAN 030 If sent during a control sequence, the sequence is
immediately terminated and not executed. It also causes
the error character to be displayed.
SUB 032 Interpreted as CAN.

Taken from vt100 manual programmer:
Control characters (codes \0 to \37 inclusive) are specifically
excluded from the control sequence syntax, but may be embedded
within a control sequence. Embedded control characters are executed
as soon as they are encountered by the VT100. The processing of the
control sequence then continues with the next character received.

Taken from vt100 programmer manual:
Control characters have values of \000 - \037, and \177. The control
characters recognized by the VT100 are shown in Table 3-10. All
other control codes cause no action to be taken.
We have to take attention when we are using alternate charset, because in
this cases they are not used as control characters.

If -f options is enabled then tputc() writes all the data to a file. Actual
code assumes that all the strings in 'c' parameters have always 1 byte
length, but this is not always true, because due to utf-8 encoding some
characters can have a diferent length. So it is necessary pass string length
to tputc in order it can call to write() correctly.

tsetreset() is called when it is necessary a full initialization of the
terminal, so it also should clean the full X window and not only the
terminal content. It is necessary change the order of the
initialization in main(), and put xinit before of tnew(), because tnew()
calls to tsetreset(), and this can cause a call to xreset() with
incorrect values.

Some times the size after a resizing is not an exact multiply of a number of
characters, so redrawn the screen using the lines and columns of the neww

st selection don't insert in the selection position whose value is not
set. This is correct for the positions in the end of the line, but cause
some problems in the beginning. For example echo -e 'a\tb' will print in the
screen:
a b
but after selecting and copying in some place you get:
ab
because positions from 1 to 7 don't have any value. This patch deals all
positions without value as blank (even at the end of the line).

After the commit named "Remove timeout in the main loop", selection is not
working in the proper way. After selecting something, press mouse button in
a line outside of selection causes an incorrect highlight. This patch fix
the problem forcing a draw after the press event, but this is only a fast
hack. Real solution means rewriting selection code.

draw() runs over all lines of the screen and renders only the dirty lines,
this avoids render lines which are not modified since last draw() call. In
this moment the main loop is something like:
- Wait something to read from file descriptors
- Read from pseudo tty
- Call draw() for rending
- Read X events
This cause the problem that all the X events that have to update the screen
have to call draw() (because draw() is called before of X events handling),
so you can have multiples renderings in only one iteration, that will waste
a lot of resources.
This patch change the main loop to:
- Wait something to read from file descriptors
- Read from pseudo tty
- Read X events
- Call draw() for rending
So X events don't have to worry about rendering, because draw() is called
after them.
The only place where draw is called outside of the main loop is in redraw(),
but it is necessary for getting a good tput flash.

The main loop waits until there is some data to read in file descriptors of
the X server or the pseudo tty. But it uses a timeout in select(), which
causes that st awake each 20 ms, even it doesn't have something to do. This
patch removes this problem removing the timeout, which is not needed.

XdbeQueryExtension() tells to the caller if the Xdbe extension is present in
the X server, so it should be called for sanity. But like is said in

No other Xdbe functions may be called before this function. If a
client violates this rule, the effects of all subsequent Xdbe calls
that it makes are undefined.

By default text files are line buffered, and this means that -f option will
not write the line until a \n is printed. This is not very useful for
debugging, so a call to fflush was added. This patch substitute this call
(which will be done by each character painted) by the full remove of the
buffering in the file.

If malloc or realloc fail they return NULL. Theorically this condition
should be tested in the code, but it's a strange condition today (basically
if this is hapenning thenyou have a big problem), and even Linux never returns
NULL in the default configuration (only if the process don't have room in
the space address, something a bit impossible in the case of st). But stis
enough small for being executed in low resources computers where this can be
a real problem. So the easy way is creating a wrappers function for them and
call to die in case of error.

st marks the active selection using reverse colors in the box selection, but
once that another window becomes owner of the selection, it is very
confusing that st keeps highlight the old selection. Usually terminal
emulators remove the highlight when it is not valid anymore.
X sends a SelectionClear event in this situation, so we only have to add a
callback which unhighlight the selectin box.

Some programs use the alternative screen (vi, less, ...), whose
content is different of the main screen. If you select text in one of
the screen, you don't wait the box selection is painted in the other
screen, so it is necessary check if the selection was done in the same
screen we are going to paint. Before to this commit, you could do
something like:
$ LESS="" ls | less
(select some code)
q
and selection box remains drawing in the main screen, but the content
of selection keeps text of the alternate screen.

When it is called DECSCNM all lines become dirty, because it is necessary
redraw all lines for getting the new colors. It is easy see the problem
running 'echo ^[[?5h'.
In order to get a correct flash when running tput flash is necessary wait
after DECSCNM, until the changes are displayed, because in other case the
switch between reverse on/reverse off will be too much fast and nothing will
happen.

Taken from the description:
When tput init is executed the list of task performed are (taken from
terminfo(5)):
run the program
iprog
output is1 is2
set the margins using
mgc, smgl and smgr
set tabs using
tbc and hts
print the file
if
and finally
output is3.
When reset is executed, a more stronger initialization process is performed,
so the terminal can return from an unknown state. rs1, rs2 and rs3 are used
in this case instead of
using is1, is2 and is3.
This patch makes is2 = rs2, resets insert mode and set normal keypad
mode. For rs1 it performs a full initilization using ^[c.
SM and RM can receive multiple parameters, but the code only was accepting
only one. This patch join the code of set and reset modes (SM and RM) in a
common function and uses a loop which deals with all the arguments of the
sequence. This patch improves xterm and vt100 compability.

This sequence clears tab stops in the terminal. If the argument is not present
or is zero, then removes the tab stop of the current horizontal position. If
the argument is 3 then removes all the tab stops of the terminal. It was
necessary modify the terminfo entry tbc, because it has \E[2g instead of the
correct \E[3g.

This sequence adds a new tab stop in the current horizontal position. This
means that tputtab must be look for the next tab stop in the tabs array
instead of using a hard coded value offset. Also, CHT sequence XXX message
is removed because it is not a vt10x sequence (as far as I know it is a
vt50x sequence), and it is not implemented by linux virtual terminal neither
by xterm.

Tabs stop are simulated in st using a fixed size of 8, always, without be
worried about sequences changing the tab stops. A user can put a tab stop in
each horizontal position of the screen, so we need at least one flag for
each column of the screen. In the same way as dirty flags is used for the
rows, it is used a bool dinamic array.

* add a timeout value (SELECT_TIMEOUT) of 20ms in the select() call
* wait at least 20ms (DRAW_TIMEOUT) between draw() calls
* only copy dirty lines from the buffer to the screen
what draw() does:
* clears dirty lines in the buffer
* draws the longest same-attributes string of each
dirty line to the buffer with multiple xdraws() call
* copies the current dirty line from buffer to the screen with a single
xcopy() call
this changeset makes st run ~10x faster.
results in a lot of simplification :
- no more dirty flags (perf are good enough).
- no more ugly gfx call in emulation functions.
LINESPACE removed from config.h.
BORDER is now handled correctly.
cursor keys are handled in kpress according to the Application Mode (DECPAM).
define & enum were renamed.
tcursor() is now tmovecursor() which is more correct.
tcpos() is now tcursor(), as DECSC is also supposed to save attributes.
capnames are indicated whenever possible.
Currently:
alsamixer looks fine, totally usable.
ncmpc is almost ok.
emacs looks like shit.
Due to consideration of POSIX compliance issues config.mk had
to be removed. Configuration variables can be overridden by
environment variables or specified via command line.
Additionally all pretty-printed messages were removed and
built-in rules are used. This also simplifies and purges
the Makefile.
Proprietary UNIX variants like AIX, HP-UX or SCO UNIX
are nowadays rarely used and maintaining compatibility to
non-standard operating systems interfaces is wasteful and
practically useless.
Projects like xterm suffer from backward compatibility to decades-old
UNIX variants and terminal standards. This does not conform to st's
design goals.
