dnkl/foot 1.15.0

on Codeberg

Added

• VT: implemented XTQMODKEYS query (CSI ? Pp m).
• Meson option utmp-backend=none|libutempter|ulog|auto. The default is auto, which will select libutempter on Linux, ulog on FreeBSD, and none for all others.
• Sixel aspect ratio.
• Support for the new fractional-scale-v1 Wayland protocol. This brings true fractional scaling to Wayland in general, and with this release, to foot.
• Support for the new cursor-shape-v1 Wayland protocol, i.e. server side cursor shapes (#1379).
• Support for touchscreen input (#517).
• csd.double-click-to-maximize option to foot.ini. Defaults to yes (#1293).

Changed

• Default color theme is now starlight (#1321).
• Minimum required meson version is now 0.59 (#1371).
• Control+Shift+u is now bound to unicode-input instead of show-urls-launch, to follow the convention established in GTK and Qt (#1183).
• show-urls-launch now bound to Control+Shift+o (#1183).
• Kitty keyboard protocol: F3 is now encoded as CSI 13~ instead of CSI R. The kitty keyboard protocol originally allowed F3 to be encoded as CSI R, but this was removed from the specification since CSI R conflicts with the ”Cursor Position Report”.
• [main].utempter renamed to [main].utmp-helper. The old option name is still recognized, but will log a deprecation warning.
• Meson option default-utempter-path renamed to utmp-default-helper-path.
• Opaque sixels now retain the background opacity (when current background color is the default background color) (#1360).
• Text cursor’s vertical position after emitting a sixel, when sixel scrolling is enabled (the default) has been updated to match XTerm’s, and the VT382’s behavior: the cursor is positioned on the last sixel row, rather than after it. This allows printing sixels on the last row without scrolling up, but also means applications may have to explicitly emit a newline to ensure the sixel is visible. For example, cat:ing a sixel in the shell will typically result in the last row not being visible, unless a newline is explicitly added.
• Default sixel aspect ratio is now 2:1 instead of 1:1.
• Sixel images are no longer cropped to the last non-transparent row.
• Sixel images are now re-scaled when the font size is changed (#1383).
• dpi-aware now defaults to no, and the auto value has been removed.
• When using custom cursor colors (cursor.color is set in foot.ini), the cursor is no longer inverted when the cell is selected, or when the cell has the reverse (SGR 7) attribute set (#1347).

Deprecated

• [main].utempter option.

Removed

• auto value for the dpi-aware option.

Fixed

• Incorrect icon in dock and window switcher on Gnome (#1317)
• Crash when scrolling after resizing the window with non-zero scrolling regions.
• XTMODKEYS state not being reset on a terminal reset.
• In Gnome dock foot always groups under "foot client". Change instances of footclient and foot to appear as "foot client" and "foot" respectively. (#1355).
• Glitchy rendering when alpha (transparency) is changed between opaque and non-opaque at runtime (using OSC-11).
• Regression: crash when resizing the window when resize-delay-ms > 0 (#1377).
• Crash when scrolling up while running something that generates a lot of output (for example, yes) (#1380).
• Default key binding for URL mode conflicting with Unicode input on some DEs; show-urls-launched is now mapped to Control+Shift+o by default, instead of Control+Shift+u (#1183).
