Release 1.21.0
Added
-----
* Support for the new Wayland protocol `xdg-system-bell-v1` protocol
(added in wayland-protocols 1.38), via the new config option
`bell.system=no|yes` (defaults to `yes`).
* Support for custom regex matching ([#1386][1386],
[#1872][1872])
* Support for kitty's text-sizing protocol (`w`, width, only), OSC-66.
* `cursor.style` can now be set to `hollow` ([#1965][1965]).
* `search-bindings.delete-to-start` and
`search-bindings.delete-to-end` key bindings, defaulting to
`Control+u` and `Control+k` respectively ([#1972][1972]).
* Gamma-correct font rendering. Requires compositor support
(`wp_color_management_v1`, and specifically, the `ext_linear`
transfer function). Enabled by default when compositor support is
available. Can be explicitly enabled or disabled with
`gamma-correct-blending=no|yes`.

Changed
-------
* Do not try to set a zero width, or height, if the compositor sends a
_configure_ event with only one dimension being zero
([#1925][1925]).
* Auto-detection of URLs (i.e. not OSC-8 based URLs) are now regex
based.
* Rename Tokyo Night Day theme to Tokyo Night Light and update colors.
* fcft >= 3.3.1 is now required.
- `tweak.scaling-filter` now supports more scaling-filters
- scaled bitmap fonts (when enabled in FontConfig) no longer have a
scaling-filter applied
* Linefeed:ing control characters (e.g. `\n`) no longer **clears** a
row's internal linebreak flag. This fixes an issue where
e.g. multi-line prompt input in fish is treated as separate lines,
rather than one logical, when selecting and copying it
([#1487][1487]).
* wayland-protocols >= 1.41 is now required.

Removed
-------
* `url.uri-characters` and `url.protocols`. Both options have been
replaced by `url.regex`.
* `notify` option (has been deprecated since 1.18.0).
* `notify-focus-inhibit` option (has been deprecated since 1.18.0).
Fixed
-----
* Kitty keyboard protocol: alternate key reporting failing to report
the alternate codepoint in some corner cases ([#1918][1918]).
* `foot` and `footclient` hanging, or terminating with `SIGABRT`, when
starting inside a directory whose total length is more than 1024
characters.
* Regression: reflowing (resizing the window) a line that ends with a
double-width glyph that was pushed to the next line due to there
being only one cell left on current line, did not remove the virtual
space inserted at the end of the current line.
* Wrong key bindings executed when using alternative keyboard layouts
([#1929][1929]).
* Foot not closing file descriptors for unrecognized or `no_keymap`
keymaps.
* Combining characters (including emojis consisting of multiple
codepoints) not being handled correctly when _insert mode_ is
enabled ([#1947][1947]).
* Reflow of the cursor (active + saved) when at the end of the line
with a pending wrap (LCF set) ([#1954][1954]).
* Zero-width characters that also are grapheme breaks (e.g. U+200B,
ZERO WIDTH SPACE) being ignored (discarded and never stored in the
grid) ([#1960][1960]).
* `--server=<FD>` not working on FreeBSD ([#1956][1956]).
* Crash when resetting the terminal and an application had previously
set a custom app ID ([#1963][1963])
* Grapheme clustering state not reset on cursor movements.
* Kitty keyboard protocol: no release events emitted for composed
keys.
* IME: the initial cursor position was reported as 0,0,0,0
([#1994][1994]).
