* improve a special case where a non-Unicode font\'s line-drawing characters were not used, when specifying it via the utf8Fonts resource.
* replace constant 10msec delay for next X event with new resource nextEventDelay, and reduce that to 1msec to accommodate faster machines than used when -hold was implemented in 1999

* add private modes 13 and 14, as well as resource cursorBlinkXOR to allow better control over the cursor-blinking state
* modify the html and svg screen dumps to support direct color

* work around a special case of Xft\'s mismanagement of its cached data by adding a check before the -report-fonts option to ensure that it does not use an XftPattern which may have been freed during a call to XftFontOpenPattern.
* improve manual page description of regex option for onXClicks resources
* add directColor resource.
* additional manpage macro cleanup
* add optional support for direct-colors
* improve legacy/NRC character set mapping: + enable alternate NRC set designators for French and French Canadian, ‘9’ and ‘f’ respectively, as documented in ctlseqs. (‘9’ is documented for VT510, ‘f’ is a Kermit feature). + correct the Unicode value in the DEC Technical table to show capital delta. + referring to
* http://vt100.net/docs/vt220-rm/table2-3b.html
* http://vt100.net/docs/vt320-uu/appendixe.html + add entries for the DEC Supplemental Graphics table to display 0x28/0xa8 as ¤ and 0x5d/0xdd as Ÿ. referring to

* Thu Aug 10 2017 pcernyAATTsuse.com- Patch #330 - 2017/06/20
* updates for ReGIS (Ross Combs): + remove redundant text command error check which broke T(B) and T(E). + retain the loading alphabet number across multiple “L” commands. + add S(T) delay handler. + fix some color handling error messages. + add stubbed-out macrograph handling. + use fragment_remaining() and fragment_consumed() instead of manually checking position / length in various places. + rename some local variables in string / extent / option parsing + wrap some long lines. + move macrograph command handling out of the top-level.
* add a summary of the italic fonts loaded to -report-fonts option.
* modify the font-lookup for italics to allow for “-i-” if no match is found with slant “-o-” (prompted by patch by Ben Wong).
* change default values for mkSamplePass and mkSampleSize to reflect generally-improved locale support in various operating systems (FreeBSD #219800).
* modify wcwidth.c to return -1 for non-Unicode values, and adjust a couple of blocks to better match assumptions about ambiguous-width characters in other implementations. Also modify wcwidth.c to support configurable soft-hyphen, so there is no drawback to using this version rather than a system wcwidth.
* amend change made in patch #328 for cursor-visibility to handle case where an application is updating the reverse-video state (FreeBSD #219800).
* update tables of combining and ambiguous-width characters in wcwidth.c based on Unicode 10.0.0.
* build-fix for --enable-sixel-graphics without - -enable-regis-graphics (reports by Sven Joachim, FreeBSD [#219945]).- Patch #329 - 2017/06/12
* add control sequences for reading the Sixel and ReGIS graphics sizes (suggested by Ben Wong).
* add a workaround for wcwidth returning -1 for characters which should have been printable (FreeBSD #219800).
* fix a bug in font initialization from patch #328 (FreeBSD [#219800]).
* fix a special case in HideCursor which assigned a bold font to the slot used for normal font in changes for italics in patch #307 (Debian #858304).
* updates for ReGIS (Ross Combs): + Strings specified with no command are used as \"comments\". Print these in the log when tracing. + Catch attempts to use \"alternate display\" mode (AKA \"blink\") from the GIGI, but do not implement it. + The T(M) command should only multiply the height by 10, not 20. + Make the S(E) command reset more state than just the screen contents. + Remove two rotation variables which were only being printed. + Numerous minor fixes and comment updates in the R command. + Unknown R command option names trigger an empty response. + Fix the output position after printing rotated text (it was missing the the sign before). + Fix the position change with pixelvectors and rotated text (the rotation transform was not being applied). + Update the TODO list and remove a verification FIXME (slanted text positioning is correct as is). + Emulate the approximately 1.4x enlargement for text which isn\'t rotated at right angles. + Only update the color planes specified in the plane mask (the W command\'s F option).
* fix a bug introduced by the changes to font information in patch #328. When processing the \"checkfont\" option of the locale resource, the program referred to the request data, to an array which was only allocated in the new/result widget (report by H Merijn Brand).
* fix a missing assignment initialization to make the utf8 resource control whether escape sequences to enable/disable UTF-8 mode are allowed.- Patch #328 - 2017/06/01
* revise parser for charClass resource, making these improvements: + accept octal and hexadecimal values + allow embedded whitespace + allow the class after colon to be optional, e.g., to clear class settings for a range of characters.
* add command-line option -report-charclass.
* fix most lintian warnings about test-package
* add eraseSavedLines resource.
* document DECSED 3 in ctlseqs.ms (report by Ben Longmans).
* improve integration between configure-events and updates for reported screensize, in particular when switching between vt100 and tek4014 modes.
* modify selection-highlighting of reverse-video text to keep that distinct, e.g., by reversing the selection foreground and background colors as one would expect. This fixes a \"useless\" case in the description of highlightColorMode.
* improve fix for Debian #759734, addressing a case where non-colored cursor would be invisible against reverse-video (see patch #311).
* updates for ReGIS (Ross Combs): + the \"H\" option of the \"T\" command should multiply by 10, not 20. + display unknown glyphs as a solid block. + given a succession of text-direction options, use the last. + fix the direction of ReGIS slanted text so that negative values produce oblique output . + fix the ReGIS text direction option to only rotate characters when no following size option is used.
* update terminfo to better match corresponding entries in ncurses, e.g., u8 pattern to match the VT220, VT420, etc., primary responses, as well as adding smxx and rmxx.
* fixes from Jörg Sommer: + corrected a trace-message regarding maximum graphics-size; it used the similar ReGIS maximum size which might not be configured. + in do_select_regex, clear selection if there is no match. If the regex does not match anything around the cursor, the selection returned must be empty, otherwise the whole line is treated as a match. This way the command defined by exec-selectable will not be executed if there is no match. + modify limit in do_select_regex to include the character at the cursor in the match, making it easier to type something and then hit the key to trigger exec-selectable. + If exec-selectable or insert-selection is triggered by a mouse button click, the position of the mouse pointer should be used. This makes it easier to address any position on the window and it makes it possible to use the mouse, e.g., for applications such as mutt where you cannot move the cursor.
* modify DECRC to save/restore xterm\'s last-column flag used to control wrapping behavior rather than manipulating DECAWM (report/analysis by Mattias Engdegård).
* add configure option --enable-terminfo-env to use the value set by --with-own-terminfo for the $TERMINFO environment variable. That variable was set automatically for HPUX, but would be useful in other systems, e.g., for Solaris (request by Jeff Wieland).
* fix a race condition when setting up a signal handler to timeout if opening /dev/tty hangs (patch by Tobias Stoeckmann).
* review/cleanup resources which were not in the manual page (report by Maxwell Anselm): + add manual page description as needed. + drop resource name for menuBar, as unnecessary. + modify fallback numeric value for regisScreenSize resource to match that for maxGraphicSize.
* updated configure macros CF_ADD_CFLAGS, CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS, CF_GNU_SOURCE, CF_MATH_LIB, and CF_XOPEN_SOURCE from other program-changes.
* update config.guess, config.sub
* change “maximum screensize” assumed by resize to 9999x9999, to accommodate people using the Unreadable font.
* drop Utility from default value of --with-desktop-category (Debian #780176).
* widen the configure script pattern used for finding related \".desktop\" files, including “Terminal”
* several minor improvements to font utility functions: + provide for later modification to implement font-sets by parsing the font resources as comma-separated lists. + parse -fn and -fa similarly, using “x:” and “xft:” prefixes for font name/family strings to distinguish between XLFD and Xft font specifications. + use loops to iterate over font classes + use getters/setters for font data to allow for on-demand lookups. + make the debugging trace for missing glyph less verbose since that interferes with the -report-fonts option. + refactor xtermLoadFont to make it clearer how some fonts are derived from others, e.g., bold, wide. + make the triggering and suppressing of font-warnings more consistent by storing the last state in the widget. + reduce font-warnings by checking for repeated warnings.
* add vttests/query-status.pl
* add vttests/closest-rgb
* add special case for displaying soft-hyphen if it happens to fall at the right margin, and omitting similar case such as the BIDI markers, where a zero-width character is neither a control character nor a combining character (Debian #844325).
* modify logic for OSC 52, manipulate selection data, to update the selection-time to include the latest X events. This fixes some cases where the selection was invalid, e.g., after an event due to focus-follows-mouse (report/testcase by Stephane Chauveau).
* revise macro CastMallocN as new macro TextAlloc to make explicit use of sizeof(char) (prompted by patch by Cade Foster).
* add “Mouse Ops” menu entry and related resources to allow runtime disabling/enabling of the mouse protocol escape sequences (discussion with Bob Proulx).
* improve discussion of mouse actions versus protocol in the manual (discussion with Bob Proulx).
* improve discussion of environment variables in the manual, pointing out where some features (such as termcap and the System5 COLUMNS and LINES variables) are used rarely, mainly to support legacy applications.
* add examples of translations resource for select/paste, and for font-size changes to the manual.
* minor reordering of some entries in ctlseqs.ms for consistency (report by Arran Ubels).
* add -s option to 256colors2.pl and 88colors2.pl, to demonstrate modifying the “system” colors 0–15.
* omit XFT_SPACING property from call to XftPatternBuild, to work around a bug in fontconfig for handling Google Go fonts, whose names sort in an order not expected by fontconfig, causing the request for a monospaced font to return italics, e.g., $ fc-match \'Go Mono:spacing=monospace\' Go-Mono-Italic.ttf: \"Go Mono\" \"Italic\" (report by Giacomo Boffi on Stackoverflow).
* modify minstall.in to improve a workaround added to the manual page in patch #182 to avoid having the C preprocessor used in the imake configuration strip out the comments in the character classes section (reports by Ted Unangst, Anthony J Bentley).- patch rebase: [xterm-decomposed_bitmaps.patch] [xterm-double_width_fonts.patch] [xterm-enable_libtinfo.patch] [xterm-forbid_window_and_font_ops.patch] [xterm-settings.patch] [xterm-sigwinch.patch]

* Mon Nov 21 2016 pcernyAATTsuse.com- Patch #327 - 2016/10/07
* add a check in the function which handles end-of-line wrapping to ensure that C1 controls are allocated one column when allowC1Printable is set (Debian #738794).
* use consistent error-checking after strtol calls, fixes a case where a query with OSC 6 did not ensure there was a valid color number (report by Alex Smith).
* add -baudrate option, for testing ncurses.
* always generate the CASE_xxx symbols in VTparse.h and Tekparse.h, as part of a change to improve debug-logging. This makes the build always depend upon awk.
* modify allowC1Printable to disallow codes 160-254 as being equivalent to codes 32-126 when parsing escape sequences (Debian #839220).
* amend fix from patch #326 for TrueType fonts to exclude the hidden character used for double-width cells (report by Grady Martin).

* further improve fix for Debian #545220 in patch #248, to avoid conflict with combining characters (Debian #738794).
* improve -hold option to avoid 100% CPU usage with NetBSD after closing the shell, which makes subsequent checks for X input events fail (prompted by patch by Pierre Pronchery).

* updated configure macro CF_LD_RPATH_OPT from ncurses changes.
* provide alternate fix for Juha Nurmela\'s report by turning on POSIX signals if _POSIX_C_SOURCE is at least one. This is done to improve the behavior if a direct child process receives a STOP signal.

* amend the REP test to not reset colors if it happens to be run via the menu entry for BCE-related tests.- vttest 20140116
* cosmetic changes (suggested by Itay Chamiel): + clear screen just before resetting SCS in menu #3 character sets, in case a VT100 emulator does not simply ignore VT220 G2/G3 selections when it does not implement them. + add check for maximum operating level before deciding whether to send a DECSCL to set it to VT100-level. + adjust starting point of items for menu #9 \"Test of known bugs\" to avoid overwriting part of the description of the test.
* add configure check for -Wlogical-op to gcc-warnings
* update config.guess, config.sub- vttest 20130915
* when NRCS is active, suppress ISO Latin-1 from menu to avoid confusion with British NRCS.
* do not highlight ISO Latin-1 for NRCS, since it is a 96-character set, not applicable to NRCS.
* correct position of ruler for SD and REP screens, which obscured the result.
* expand menu 11.6.6 to demonstrate bce with top-level menus 1 and 2 in addition to the existing menu 8.

* update config.guess, config.sub- vttest 20130818
* modify character-sets screens to optionally highlight the characters which do not correspond to ISO-8859-1. This makes the National Replacement Characters easier to see.
* modify DSR cursor-position report to check if the terminal accounts for origin-mode.
* support --datarootdir option in makefile.in, to match configure script updates.
* updated configure macros: + change from byacc for autoheader + improved checks for gcc attributes + improved checks for gcc version + miscellaneous fixes in CF_XOPEN_SOURCE
* update config.guess, config.sub- vttest 20120603
* change cursor-position before IL/DL in \"Test of VT102-style features with BCE (Insert/Delete Char/Line)\" to demonstrate whether the terminal sets the cursor to the first column as a side-effect, as noted in VT220 reference manual.- remove vttest-config_update_aarch64.patch since the current vttest sports newer config version
* Wed Sep 02 2015 pcernyAATTsuse.com- Patch #320 - 2015/08/28

* add a section to ctlseqs.ms discussing control sequences and ECMA-48, to explain why C1 controls do not occur in the decoded characters from UTF-8 byte streams (prompted by discussion with Poul-Henning Kamp).
* modify check for cursor-theme from patch #301 to also check if the resource Xcursor.theme is set to a nonempty value before fallback to xterm\'s own dummy theme (request by Robert Kloefkorn).
* explain in ctlseqs.ms that some keys which normally send SS3-prefixes are changed to CSI-prefixes if key-modifiers are passed as parameters (report by George Nachman).

* make the graphic dirty upon resize or clear, fixing some missing refreshes (patch by Ross Combs)
* fixes scrolling to use user coordinates and move in the correct direction (patch by Ross Combs)
* several fixes/improvements for ReGIS whitespace and page-handling (patch by Ross Com
* Sun Apr 19 2015 mpluskalAATTsuse.com- Update to version 318
* rename new(er) configure option --enable-initial-erase to - -enable-pty-erase, since that conflicted with an existing option (report by Jens Schweikhardt).
* fix cut/paste error in --with-builtin-xpms configure option (reports by Jens Schweikhardt, Ross Combs).
* fix minor formatting issue in xterm manual (report by Jens Schweikhardt).
* eliminate unnecessary \"#(vi\" markers in autoconf macros by using \"(\" to begin case-statement cases (suggested by Jens Schweikhardt).
* minor fixes to improve const usage (Ross Combs).- Add pkgconfig and groff as dependency as configure is looking for them
* Fri Mar 27 2015 pcernyAATTsuse.com- Patch #317 - 2015/03/27
* adapt example for exec-formatted from Lukáš Zapletal\'s webpage to manual (Debian #780008).
* add a short usage section to the xterm manual, including notes on setting the window title (Debian #742477).
* revise a change made to ICH in patch #314 to address limit-checks (reports/testcases by Zoltán Kéri and Joe Peterson, also reported by Christian Weisgerber).- Patch #316 - 2015/03/07
* revert change to make DCH honor top/bottom scrolling margins. For the record, both the VT420 and VT520 reference manuals incorrectly state that \"DCH has no effect outside the scrolling margins.\"
* fix regression in DCH introduced in adjustment for limit-check in patch #315 (report/testcase by Zoltán Kéri, also reported by Christian Weisgerber).
* correct default value for configure option - -enable-initial-erase; it should be \"False\", but in patch [#315] it was \"Maybe\", which differed from default set in patch [#192].- Patch #315 - 2015/03/02
* change default for --enable-narrowproto for Cygwin to \"no\" to better match contemporary configurations (report by Jens Schweikhardt, prompted by discussion).
* provide OSC 106 as an alternative to OSC 6, avoiding conflict with one of Terminal.app\'s undocumented escape sequences (report by Egmont Koblinger).
* fix an off-by-one in comparison when autowrap and left/right margins are combined (report by George Nachman).
* modify DECBI and DECFI to work outside the left/right margins, since the vague VT520 reference manual could support that interpretation (suggested by George Nachman).

* correct order of parameters in report for CSI 1 9 t, which gives the screensize in characters (report by George Nachman).
* add null pointer checks for a case in DECCRA where part of the target rectangle lies outside the screen limits (report by George Nachman).
* remove extra \"6\" for selective erase from DA1 response (report by George Nachman).
* support Xinerama screen specification in geometry parsing (patch by Nicolas George).

* add configure --enable-builtin-xpms to simplify compiling-in the icons introduced in patch #284 (prompted by discussion with William Bulley).
* fix/improve autoconf macros: + CF_WITH_APP_DEFAULTS, add paths for OSX + CF_WITH_MAN2HTML, configure option \"--with-man2html\" provides \"man2html\" as alternative to groff\'s man/html conversion
* fix some minor issues in manpage (Jens Schweikhardt).- Patch #314 - 2014/12/28
* fix a minor bug in the termcap-specific version of resize when the lines or columns values are at the very end of an incomplete termcap string (prompted by coverity report).
* improve paste64 feature (report by Olaf Rogalsky) + fix “p;” command in paste64.pl example. + modify _OwnSelection to allow the paste64 control to cause primary/clipboard selections to be disowned and cleared. + omit an extra \"=\" used in padding, to make the base64 response a multiple of four characters. + modify _ConvertSelectionHelper to not stop converting on embedded nulls in the primary or clipboard selection. That makes the behavior consistent with cut-buffers. Nulls are not passed on to the application because they are used for separators in the X library calls that convert XTextProperty values.
* add configure option --with-man2html to allow an alternative to groff\'s man/html conversion.
* review and modify resource-settings which can be set via control sequences, etc: + add OSC 6, to enable/disable colors set via OSC 5, without changing the color assignments (prompted by patch by Ingo Brückl). + add command-line option -itc for italics. + add colorIT and colorITMode for italics, like colorBD, etc. + guard allowPasteControls against modification by editres.
* change passedPty from fixed-length to allocated to ensure that it is long enough to hold the -S option value (report by Ben Longbons).
* improve ReGIS graphics initialization (Ross Combs): + add a new string resource to set the default ReGIS font. + fix a caching problem where the font name wasn\'t taken into consideration when looking up cached metrics. + enables use of fractional values in coordinates (which in turn allows setting the coordinates to something like [0,1][1,0]) + doubles the minimum ReGIS graphic to 200x200 + set the default ReGIS image size to \"auto\" + fix some swapped width/height parameters in TRACE messages + add support for scaling and mirrored coordinate systems to the screen address command + sets a minimum ReGIS graphics size of 100x100 -- smaller address ranges will be scaled up + reset the image if either the width or height is zero (which should happen together or not at all, but switching the logic gets rid of some parentheses) + adds support for alternate screen coordinates (just offsets, not inverted coordinates or scaling) + keeps the graphics state across ReGIS calls unless P1 or P3 entry codes are used + changes loops to continue after parsing whitespace to allow trailing whitespace + fixes some incorrect character casts
* Mon Jan 05 2015 pcernyAATTsuse.com- Patch #313 - 2014/11/28
* add regisScreenSize resource setting to allow custom screensizes for ReGIS graphics (prompted by discussion with Scott Froebe).
* fix some minor issues in manpage (Jens Schweikhardt).
* improve ReGIS font-handling (Ross Combs): + remove \"random junk\" generation for unknown characters + add xterm extension to load user glyphs for alphabet 0 + add xterm extension to specify loading an alphabet from a font by name + fix bug with use of empty alphabet slots which caused slot 0 to be clobbered + update/clarify ReGIS-related comments + add DECprint extension for printing/clearing the screen (only clearing is performed)
* improve ReGIS colorspec conversion (Ross Combs): + avoid some floating point math for colorspace conversion + move two copies of colorspec parsing to a single function + change colorspec parsing to handle components being out of order or with spaces and commas between them + add support for an extension where RGB components can be given instead of HLS
* improve use of const, e.g., for the LineData pointers (patch by Ross Combs).
* clip of graphics that overlap the scrollback buffer and alt screen (patch by Ross Combs).
* amend change to focus-change events in patch #287 to limit it to suppressing the reset of the urgency-hint, because some useful FocusOut events were lost (report by Joe Peterson).
* modify dpkg build-script to configure xterm-dev as an x-terminal-emulator alternative.
* extend the --with-xterm-symlink feature to make symbolic links for the other programs and scripts.
* minor fix to vttests/resize.pl to avoid undefined variable when receiving broken/missing response, e.g., from mrxvt.
* change the way that ReGIS graphics are refreshed (patch by Ross Combs): + it pre-composes any overlapping graphics to avoid unnecessary and flickering draws + it adds a three-dimensional lookup table for RGB -> pixel values and uses this across all graphics + it draws in line segments when there is a run of the same color + in cases where there are no transparent parts, it uses an XImage to draw + it hooks into the double-buffering support if it is enabled (though this doesn\'t seem to get rid of all flicker).
* This has the effect of reducing flicker and speeding up redraws.
* Mon Jan 05 2015 dimstarAATTopensuse.org- Add libX11-devel, libXft-devel and libXrender-devel BuildRequires: the configure script silently disables XRENDERFONT support if the dependencies are missing (boo#911683).- Add an extra check after configure to ensure we do not lose this support accidentally ever again.
* Fri Dec 19 2014 dimstarAATTopensuse.org- Remove xorg-x11 and xorg-x11-devel BuildRequires: there is no need, and it causes that xterm requires itself to build through indirect requires (xdm, xinit).- Own the directory %{xappdefs}.
* Tue Dec 16 2014 dimstarAATTopensuse.org- Split the desktop launcher from the binaries: there are users that want to clean up their desktop launchers and also remove xterm launchers (but xterm is a deep dependency of xinit, used for fallback situations). The package \'xterm\' is the \'app launcher\', which depends on xterm-bin. Installing xterm does, as it did in the past, pull a FULL package installation. But the user will be free to remove xterm and only keep xterm-bin (once the dependencies in xinit are corrected as well) (boo#906598).
* Fri Nov 14 2014 dimstarAATTopensuse.org- No longer perform gpg validation; osc source_validator does it implicit: + Drop gpg-offline BuildRequires. + No longer execute gpg_verify.
