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;
printf '\t@';
usleep 100000;
done
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.
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.
Reported by JasonWoof on IRC. Thanks!
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.
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.

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 makes any sequence of identical delimiters be considered a single
word in word-snapping mode. This seems more coherent for this mode and
is similar to what xterm does.

This simplifies getbuttoninfo() and bpress(), and fixes a bug which made word
snapping behave incorrectly when a delimiter was at the beginning or end of
line.

We already have a csihandle() function, where is located code about
CSI sequences, so it is logical do the same with ESC sequences.
This change helps to simplify tcontrol(), which has a complex flow
and should be rewritten.
DEL character is not thecnically talking a C0 control character,
although it has some common properties with them, so it is useful
for us consider it as C0. Before this patch DEL (\177), was not
ignored as it ought to be.
Man page was repeating -f option, the second time instead of -i,
and this option was lost in usage() message. This patch also indent
the output of usage().
VT102ID is the sequence that the terminal returns when it is inquired
to identify itself. This value should be configurable in the same
way that another st parameters.
ISCONTROL chechks if a value is between 0 and 0x1f or
between 0x80 and 0x9f. Char signess depends of architecture
and compiler, so in some environment the second case is
always false (and wrong), Techo() calls ISCONTROL with a
char variable, whose type cannot be changed because tpuc()
expects a pointer to char, so the solution is to insert a
cast in the call to ISCONTROL.
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
previous scrool underline mode was set.
Master proccess was not showing any error message when the child
died with an error, and it was very confusing for the user (for
example with incorrect -e command).
One blinking mode is good enough, and two is too much. The best aproach
is emulate the fast blinking with the slow blinking, that it is more
used.
It is removed the flag ATTR_FASTBLINK because it has not a different
meaning of ATTR_BLINK, so it is not needed.
