The advantage of using a ring buffer is that the common case, scrolling with no static screen content, can be achieved very efficiently by incrementing and decrementing the starting line (modulo buffer size).	2025-10-09 07:58:55 +02:00

Ayman Bagabas	d6c431859c	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>	2025-08-09 12:34:01 +02:00
sasha	f114bcedd1	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'	2025-07-27 20:06:54 +02:00
Johannes Altmanninger	98610fcd37	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.	2025-01-30 17:50:37 +01:00

DOGMAN	497a756382	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.	2024-04-03 19:49:05 +02:00
Hiltjo Posthuma	8c68ec5241	Revert "Fix cursor move with wide glyphs" This reverts commit `7473a8d1a5`. 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"	2024-03-30 12:37:06 +01:00

Tommi Hirvola	95f22c5305	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.	2024-03-04 23:50:58 +01:00
Quentin Rameau	7473a8d1a5	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.	2024-02-25 11:56:43 +01:00
Tim Culverhouse	a3f7420310	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.	2024-02-18 16:14:26 +01:00
Peter Hofmann	9846a56bd7	Add terminfo entries for bracketed paste mode Helps Vim (and hopefully others) to discover that this feature exists without further user configuration.	2023-10-07 12:16:59 +02:00
Peter Hofmann	559fdc2786	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).	2023-10-07 12:16:59 +02:00
Peter Hofmann	8abe4bcb41	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.	2023-10-07 12:16:59 +02:00
Peter Hofmann	2fc7e532b2	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".	2023-10-07 12:16:59 +02:00
Peter Hofmann	a6bbc0c96b	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\\'	2023-10-07 12:16:59 +02:00
Hiltjo Posthuma	eb3b894f40	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.	2023-09-22 15:16:52 +02:00
