Problem: Termcap/terminfo entries do not indicate where modifiers might
appear.
Solution: Add ";*" for function keys where modifiers are likely to be used.
Problem: Terminfo entries for bracketed paste are not used.
Solution: Use the newly added terminfo entries for bracketed paste.
Correct mixup of output strings and key codes.
Problem: Code handling low level MS-Windows events cannot be tested.
Solution: Add test_mswin_event() and tests using it. (Christopher Plewright,
closes#11622)
Problem: The "kitty" terminfo entry is not widespread, resulting in the
kitty terminal not working properly.
Solution: Go back to using "xterm-kitty" and avoid the problems it causes in
another way.
Problem: Using "xterm-kitty" for 'term' causes problems.
Solution: Remove the "xterm-" part when 'term' is set from $TERM. Detect a
few kitty-specific properties based on the version response
instead of the terminal name.
Problem: No information about whether requesting term codes has an effect.
Solution: Add ch_log() calls to report the effect of term code responses.
Avoid deleting an entry and then adding back the same one.
Problem: A shell command switching screens may still have a problem with
the kitty keyboard protocol.
Solution: Disable the kitty keyboard protocol both in the current and the
alternate screen, if there are indications it might be needed.
(issue #11705) Also fix naming.
Problem: When using Kitty a shell command may mess up the key protocol
state.
Solution: Output t_te before t_TE. If t_te switches between the main and
the alternate screen then deactivating the key protocol by t_TE
should happen after switching screen. (issue #11705)
Problem: If 'keyprotocol' is empty "xterm" still uses modifyOtherKeys.
Solution: Remove t_TI, t_RK and t_TE from the "xterm" builtin termcap and
let the default value of 'keyprotocol' add those.
Problem: When using kitty keyboard protocol function keys may not work.
(Kovid Goyal)
Solution: Recognize CSI ending in [ABCDEFHPQRS] also when the termcap
entries are not specified. (closes#11648)
Problem: The keyboard state response may end up in a shell command.
Solution: Only request the keyboard protocol state when the typeahead is
empty, no more commands are following and not exiting. Add the
t_RK termcap entry for this.
Problem: It is not easy to see what client-server commands are doing.
Solution: Add channel log messages if ch_log() is available. Move the
channel logging and make it available with the +eval feature.
Problem: Kitty keyboard protocol key not decoded when it has an unsupported
modifier, such as NumLock.
Solution: Accept a key with any modifier. (closes#11638)
Problem: Cannot detect whether modifyOtherKeys is enabled.
Solution: Use XTQMODKEYS introduced by xterm version 377 to request the
modifyOtherKeys level. Update the keycode check results.
Problem: Still using simplified mappings when using the kitty keyboard
protocol.
Solution: Use the kitty_protocol_state value to decide whether to use
simplified mappings. Improve how seenModifyOtherKeys is set and
reset.
Problem: MS-Windows: mouse column limited to 223.
Solution: Use two bytes for each mouse coordinate. Add the mouse position
to scroll events. (Christopher Plewright, closes#11597)
Problem: Cannot debug the Kitty keyboard protocol with TermDebug.
Solution: Add Kitty keyboard protocol support to the libvterm fork.
Recognize the escape sequences that the protocol generates. Add
the 'keyprotocol' option to allow the user to specify for which
terminal what protocol is to be used, instead of hard-coding this.
Add recognizing the kitty keyboard protocol status.
Problem: Second SIGWINCH signal may be ignored.
Solution: When set_shellsize() is busy when called then run the inner code
again when it's done. (issue #424)
Problem: MS-Windows: modifier keys do not work with mouse scroll events.
Solution: Use K_SPECIAL instead of CSI for the modifier keys. (Christopher
Plewright, closes#11587)
Problem: MS-Windows Terminal has unstable color control.
Solution: Do not try to read the old command prompt colortable, use modern
VT sequences. (Christopher Plewright, closes#11450,
closes#11373)
