Support OSC 110, 111, and 112 for resetting colors

2025-08-09T10:34:01Z

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

Eat up "CSI 58" sequences

2025-07-27T18:06:54Z

This is used in the wild by systemd systemctl for example and st misinterpreted it as "blink", because it didn't know "58", then saw "5" as "blink", and then didn't know "245". This should print "foo" as normal text: printf '\e[58:5:245mfoo\n' printf '\e[58:2:50:100:200mfoo\n'

Do not interpret CSI ? u as DECRC

2025-01-30T16:50:37Z

The kitty keyboard protocol docs recommend CSI ? u to query support for that protocol, see https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/keyboard-protocol/ For better or worse, fish shell uses this query to work around bugs in other terminals triggered by requesting that protocol via CSI = 5 u. Unfortunately, st interprets CSI ? u as DECRC (restore cursor position). reproduce with 'printf "\x1b[?u"; cat'. fish could work around this by switching to the alternate screen before running this query; but that might cause tearing on terminals that don't support Synchronized Output. I'm not sure. In the meantime, let's correct our parser. This adds a redundant else-after-return, for consistency with the surrounding code.

Clear screen: Fix edge case

With sequence \e[1J, if cursor is on second line, clear the first line.

fix BadMatch error when embedding on some windows

2024-08-09T11:34:56Z

When embedded, st fails with BadMatch error if the embedder's window has non-default colormap/depth/visual. This commit fixes that by creating st's window inside root and then reparent it into embedder. The reference window for dc.gc is also changed to match root's visuals. A similar commit had been made for dmenu[1]. See this issue[2] on github for context.

support colons in SGR character attributes

2024-05-01T18:45:39Z

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