    Release 1.8.0
    
    Grapheme shaping
    ----------------
    
    This release adds _experimental, opt-in_ support for grapheme cluster
    segmentation and grapheme shaping.
    
    (note: several of the examples below may not render correctly in your
    browser, viewer or editor).
    
    Grapheme cluster segmentation is the art of splitting up text into
    grapheme clusters, where a cluster may consist of more than one
    Unicode codepoint. For example, 🙂 is a single codepoint, while 👩🏽‍🚀
    consists of 4 codepoints (_Woman_ + _Medium skin tone_ + _Zero width
    joiner_ + _Rocket_). The goal is to _cluster_ codepoints belonging to
    the same grapheme in the same cell in the terminal.
    
    Previous versions of foot implemented a simple grapheme cluster
    segmentation technique that **only** handled zero-width
    codepoints. This allowed us to cluster combining characters, like q́
    (_q_ + _COMBINING ACUTE ACCENT_).
    
    Once we have a grapheme cluster, we need to _shape_ it.
    
    Combining characters are simple: they are typically rendered as
    multiple glyphs layered on top of each other. This is why previous
    versions of foot got away with it without any actual text shaping
    support.
    
    Beyond that, support from the font library is needed. Foot now depends
    on fcft-2.4, which added support for grapheme and text shaping. When
    rendering a cell, we ask the font library: give us the glyph(s) for
    this sequence of codepoints.
    
    Fancy emoji sequences aside, using libutf8proc for grapheme cluster
    segmentation means **improved correctness**.
    
    For full support, the following is required:
    
    * fcft compiled with HarfBuzz support
    * foot compiled with libutf8proc support
    * `tweak.grapheme-shaping=yes` in `foot.ini`
    
    If `tweak.grapheme-shaping` has **not** been enabled, foot will
    neither use libutf8proc to do grapheme cluster segmentation, nor will
    it use fcft’s grapheme shaping capabilities to shape combining
    characters.
    
    This feature is _experimental_ mostly due to the “wcwidth” problem;
    how many cells should foot allocate for a grapheme cluster? While the
    answer may seem simple, the problem is that, whatever the answer is,
    the client application **must** come up with the **same**
    answer. Otherwise we get cursor synchronization issues.
    
    In this release, foot simply adds together the `wcwidth()` of all
    codepoints in the grapheme cluster. This is equivalent to running
    `wcswidth()` on the entire cluster. **This is likely to change in the
    future**.
    
    Finally, note that grapheme shaping is not the same thing as text (or
    text run) shaping. In this version, foot only shapes individual
    graphemes, not entire text runs. That means e.g. ligatures are **not**
    supported.
    
    Added
    -----
    
    * Support for DECSET/DECRST 2026, as an alternative to the existing
      "synchronized updates" DCS sequences
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/459).
    * `cursor.beam-thickness` option to `foot.ini`
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/464).
    * `cursor.underline-thickness` option to `foot.ini`
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/524).
    * Unicode 13 characters U+1FB70 - U+1FB8B to list of box drawing
      characters rendered by foot itself (rather than using font glyphs)
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/471).
    * Dedicated `[bell]` section to config, supporting multiple actions
      and a new `command` action to run an arbitrary command.
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/pulls/483)
    * Dedicated `[url]` section to config.
    * `[url].protocols` option to `foot.ini`
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/531).
    * Support for setting the full 256 color palette in foot.ini
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/489)
    * XDG activation support, will be used by `[bell].urgent` when
      available (falling back to coloring the window margins red when
      unavailable) (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/487).
    * `ctrl`+`c` as a default key binding; to cancel search/url mode.
    * `${window-title}` to `notify`.
    * Support for including files in `foot.ini`
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/555).
    * `ENVIRONMENT` section in **foot**(1) and **footclient**(1) man pages
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/556).
    * `tweak.pua-double-width` option to `foot.ini`, letting you force
      _Private Usage Area_ codepoints to be treated as double-width
      characters.
    * OSC 9 desktop notifications (iTerm2 compatible).
    * Support for LS2 and LS3 (locking shift) escape sequences
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/581).
    * Support for overriding configuration options on the command line
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/554,
      https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/600).
    * `underline-offset` option to `foot.ini`
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/490).

    * `-Dterminfo-install-location=disabled|<custom-path>` meson command
      line option (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/569).
    
    Changed
    -------
    
    * [fcft](https://codeberg.org/dnkl/fcft): required version bumped from
      2.3.x to 2.4.x.
    * `generate-alt-random-writes.py --sixel`: width and height of emitted
      sixels has been adjusted.
    * _Concealed_ text (`\E[8m`) is now revealed when highlighted.
    * The background color of highlighted text is now adjusted, when the
      foreground and background colors are the same, making the
      highlighted text legible
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/455).
    * `cursor.style=bar` to `cursor.style=beam`. `bar` remains a
      recognized value, but will eventually be deprecated, and removed.
    * Point values in `line-height`, `letter-spacing`,
      `horizontal-letter-offset` and `vertical-letter-offset` are now
      rounded, not truncated, when translated to pixel values.
    * Foot’s exit code is now -26/230 when foot itself failed to launch
      (due to invalid command line options, client application/shell not
      found etc). Footclient’s exit code is -36/220 when it itself fails
      to launch (e.g. bad command line option) and -26/230 when the foot
      server failed to instantiate a new window
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/466).
    * Background alpha no longer applied to palette or RGB colors that
      matches the background color.
    * Improved performance on compositors that does not release shm
      buffers immediately, e.g. KWin
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/478).
    * `ctrl + w` (_extend-to-word-boundary_) can now be used across lines
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/421).
    * Ignore auto-detected URLs that overlap with OSC-8 URLs.
    * Default value for the `notify` option to use `-a ${app-id} -i
      ${app-id} ...` instead of `-a foot -i foot ...`.
    * `scrollback-*`+`pipe-scrollback` key bindings are now passed through
      to the client application when the alt screen is active
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/573).
    * Reverse video (`\E[?5h`) now only swaps the default foreground and
      background colors. Cells with explicit foreground and/or background
      colors remain unchanged.
    * Tabs (`\t`) are now preserved when the window is resized, and when
      copying text (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/508).
    * Writing a sixel on top of another sixel no longer erases the first
      sixel, but the two are instead blended
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/562).
    * Running foot without a configuration file is no longer an error; it
      has been demoted to a warning, and is no longer presented as a
      notification in the terminal window, but only logged on stderr.
    
    Deprecated
    ----------
    
    * `bell` option in `foot.ini`; set actions in the `[bell]` section
      instead.
    * `url-launch` option in `foot.ini`; use `launch` in the `[url]`
      section instead.
    * `jump-label-letters` option in `foot.ini`; use `label-letters` in
      the `[url]` section instead.
    * `osc8-underline` option in `foot.ini`; use `osc8-underline` in the
      `[url]` section instead.

    * Assertion when emitting a sixel occupying the entire scrollback
      history (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/494).
    * Font underlines being positioned below the cell (and thus being
      invisible) for certain combinations of fonts and font sizes
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/503).
    * Sixels with transparent bottom border being resized below the size
      specified in _”Set Raster Attributes”_.
    * Fonts sometimes not being reloaded with the correct scaling factor
      when `dpi-aware=no`, or `dpi-aware=auto` with monitor(s) with a
      scaling factor > 1 (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/509).
    * Crash caused by certain CSI sequences with very large parameter
      values (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/522).
    * Rare occurrences where the window did not close when the shell
      exited. Only seen on FreeBSD
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/534)
    * Foot process(es) sometimes remaining, using 100% CPU, when closing
      multiple foot windows at the same time
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/542).
    * Regression where `<mod>+shift+tab` always produced `\E[Z` instead of
      the correct `\E[27;<mod>;9~` sequence

    * Crash when a line wrapping OSC-8 URI crossed the scrollback wrap
      around (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/552).
    * Selection incorrectly wrapping rows ending with an explicit newline
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/565).

      freed when destroying a foot window instance
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/586).

    * Underline cursor is now rendered below text underline
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/415).
    * Foot now tries much harder to keep URL jump labels inside the window
      geometry (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/443).
    * `bold-text-in-bright` may now be set to `palette-based`, in which
      case it will use the corresponding bright palette color when the
      color to brighten matches one of the base 8 colors, instead of
      increasing the luminance
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/449).
    
    Fixed
    -----
    
    * Reverted _"Consumed modifiers are no longer sent to the client
      application"_ (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/425).

    Added
    -----
    
    * The `pad` option now accepts an optional third argument, `center`
      (e.g. `pad=5x5 center`), causing the grid to be centered in the
      window, with equal amount of padding of the left/right and
      top/bottom side (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/273).
    * `line-height`, `letter-spacing`, `horizontal-letter-offset` and
      `vertical-letter-offset` to `foot.ini`. These options let you tweak
      cell size and glyph positioning
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/244).
    * Key/mouse binding `select-extend-character-wise`, which forces the
      selection mode to 'character-wise' when extending a selection.
    * `DECSET` `47`, `1047` and `1048`.
    * URL detection and OSC-8 support. URLs are highlighted and activated
      using the keyboard (**no** mouse support). See **foot**(1)::URLs, or
      [README.md](README.md#urls) for details
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/14).
    * `-d,--log-level={info|warning|error}` to both `foot` and
      `footclient` (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/337).
    * `-D,--working-directory=DIR` to both `foot` and `footclient`
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/347)

    * Man page **foot-ctlseqs**(7), documenting all supported escape
      sequences (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/235).
    * Support for transparent sixels (DCS parameter `P2=1`)
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/391).
    * `-N,--no-wait` to `footclient`
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/395).
    * Completions for Bash shell
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/10).
    
    Changed
    -------
    
    * The fcft and tllist library subprojects are now handled via Meson
      [wrap files](https://mesonbuild.com/Wrap-dependency-system-manual.html)
      instead of needing to be manually cloned.
    * Box drawing characters are now rendered by foot, instead of using
      font glyphs (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/198)
    * Double- or triple clicking then dragging now extends the selection
      word- or line-wise (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/267).
    * The line thickness of box drawing characters now depend on the font
      size (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/281).
    * Extending a word/line-wise selection now uses the original selection
      mode instead of switching to character-wise.
    * While doing an interactive resize of a foot window, foot now
      requires 100ms of idle time (where the window size does not change)
      before sending the new dimensions to the client application. The
      timing can be tweaked, or completely disabled, by setting
      `resize-delay-ms` (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/301).
    * `CSI 13 ; 2 t` now reports (0,0).
    * Key binding matching logic; key combinations like `Control+Shift+C`
      **must** now be written as either `Control+C` or `Control+Shift+c`,
      the latter being the preferred
      variant. (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/376)
    * Consumed modifiers are no longer sent to the client application
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/376).
    * The minimum version requirement for the libxkbcommon dependency is
      now 1.0.0.
    * Empty pixel rows at the bottom of a sixel is now trimmed.
    * Sixels with DCS parameter `P2=0|2` now use the _current_ ANSI
      background color for empty pixels instead of the default background
      color (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/391).
    * Sixel decoding optimized; up to 100% faster in some cases.
    * Reported sixel “max geometry” from current window size, to the
      configured maximum size (defaulting to 10000x10000).
    
    Removed
    -------
    
    * The `-g,--geometry` command-line option (which had been deprecated
      and superseded by `-w,--window-size-pixels` since 1.5.0).
    
    Fixed
    -----
    
    * Some mouse bindings (_primary paste_, for example) did not require
      `shift` to be pressed while used in a mouse grabbing
      application. This meant the mouse event was never seen by the
      application.
    * Terminals spawned with `ctrl`+`shift`+`n` not terminating when
      exiting shell (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/366).
    * Default value of `-t,--term` in `--help` output when foot was built
      without terminfo support.
    * Drain PTY when the client application terminates.

    Added
    -----
    
    * `selection-target=none|primary|clipboard|both` to `foot.ini`. It can
      be used to configure which clipboard(s) selected text should be
      copied to. The default is `primary`, which corresponds to the
      behavior in older foot releases
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/288).
    
    Changed
    -------
    
    * The IME state no longer stays stuck in the terminal if the IME goes
      away during preedit.
    * `-Dterminfo` changed from a `boolean` to a `feature` option.
    * Use standard signals instead of a signalfd to handle
      `SIGCHLD`. Fixes an issue on FreeBSD where foot did not detect when
      the client application had terminated.
    
    Fixed

      `tweak.allow-overflowing-double-width-glyphs=yes` - the default) not
      properly erasing the cell overflowed **into**.
    * `word-delimiters` option ignores `#` and subsequent characters
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/270)
    * Combining characters not being rendered when composed with colored
      bitmap glyphs (i.e. colored emojis).
    * Pasting URIs from the clipboard when the source has not
      newline-terminated the last URI
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/291).
    * Sixel “current geometry” query response not being bounded by the
      current window dimensions (fixes `lsix` output)
    * Crash on keyboard input when repeat rate was zero (i.e. no repeat).
    * Wrong button encoding of mouse buttons 6 and 7 in mouse events.
    * Scrollback search not matching composed characters.
    * High CPU usage when holding down e.g. arrow keys while in scrollback
      search mode.
    * Rendering of composed characters in the scrollback search box.
    * IME pre-edit cursor when positioned at the end of the pre-edit
      string.
    * Scrollback search not matching multi-column characters.

  • 1.6.0
    Release 1.6.0
    
    For packagers
    -------------
    
    Starting with this release, foot can be PGO:d (compiled using profile
    guided optimizations) **without** a running Wayland session. This
    means foot can be PGO:d in e.g. sandboxed build scripts. See
    [INSTALL.md](INSTALL.md#user-content-performance-optimized-pgo).
    
    Added
    -----
    
    * IME support. This is compile-time optional, see
      [INSTALL.md](INSTALL.md#user-content-options)
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/134).
    * `DECSET` escape to enable/disable IME: `CSI ? 737769 h` enables IME
      and `CSI ? 737769 l` disables it. This can be used to
      e.g. enable/disable IME when entering/leaving insert mode in vim.
    * `dpi-aware` option to `foot.ini`. The default, `auto`, sizes fonts
      using the monitor’s DPI when output scaling has been
      **disabled**. If output scaling has been **enabled**, fonts are
      sized using the scaling factor. DPI-only font sizing can be forced
      by setting `dpi-aware=yes`. Setting `dpi-aware=no` forces font
      sizing to be based on the scaling factor.
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/206).
    * Implement reverse auto-wrap (_auto\_left\_margin_, _bw_, in
      terminfo). This mode can be enabled/disabled with `CSI ? 45 h` and
      `CSI ? 45 l`. It is **enabled** by default
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/150).
    * `bell` option to `foot.ini`. Can be set to `set-urgency` to make
      foot render the margins in red when receiving `BEL` while **not**
      having keyboard focus. Applications can dynamically enable/disable
      this with the `CSI ? 1042 h` and `CSI ? 1042 l` escape
      sequences. Note that Wayland does **not** implement an _urgency_
      hint like X11, but that there is a
      [proposal](https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/-/merge_requests/9)
      to add support for this. The value `set-urgency` was chosen for
      forward-compatibility, in the hopes that this proposal eventualizes
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/157).
    * `bell` option can also be set to `notify`, in which case a desktop
      notification is emitted when foot receives `BEL` in an unfocused
      window.
    * `word-delimiters` option to `foot.ini`
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/156).
    * `csd.preferred` can now be set to `none` to disable window
      decorations. Note that some compositors will render SSDs despite
      this option being used (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/163).
    * Terminal content is now auto-scrolled when moving the mouse above or
      below the window while selecting
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/149).
    * `font-bold`, `font-italic` `font-bold-italic` options to
      `foot.ini`. These options allow custom bold/italic fonts. They are
      unset by default, meaning the bold/italic version of the regular
      font is used (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/169).
    * Drag & drop support; text, files and URLs can now be dropped in a
      foot terminal window (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/175).
    * `clipboard-paste` and `primary-paste` scrollback search bindings. By
      default, they are bound to `ctrl+v ctrl+y` and `shift+insert`
      respectively, and lets you paste from the clipboard or primary
      selection into the search buffer.
    * Support for `pipe-*` actions in mouse bindings. It was previously
      not possible to add a command to these actions when used in mouse
      bindings, making them useless
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/183).
    * `bold-text-in-bright` option to `foot.ini`. When enabled, bold text
      is rendered in a brighter color
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/199).
    * `-w,--window-size-pixels` and `-W,--window-size-chars` command line
      options to `footclient` (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/189).
    * Short command line options for `--title`, `--maximized`,
      `--fullscreen`, `--login-shell`, `--hold` and `--check-config`.
    * `DECSET` escape to modify the `escape` key to send `\E[27;1;27~`
      instead of `\E`: `CSI ? 27127 h` enables the new behavior, `CSI ?
      27127 l` disables it (the default).
    * OSC 777;notify: desktop notifications. Use in combination with the
      new `notify` option in `foot.ini`
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/224).
    * Status line terminfo capabilities `hs`, `tsl`, `fsl` and `dsl`. This
      enables e.g. vim to set the window title
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/242).
    
    Changed
    -------
    
    * Blinking text now uses the foreground color, but dimmed down in its
      off state, instead of the background color.
    * Sixel default maximum size is now 10000x10000 instead of the current
      window size.
    * Graphical glitches/flashes when resizing the window while running a
      fullscreen application, i.e. the 'alt' screen
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/221).
    * Cursor will now blink if **either** `CSI ? 12 h` or `CSI Ps SP q`
      has been used to enable blinking. **cursor.blink** in `foot.ini`
      controls the default state of `CSI Ps SP q`
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/218).
    * The sub-parameter versions of the SGR RGB color escapes (e.g
      `\E[38:2...m`) can now be used _without_ the color space ID
      parameter.
    * SGR 21 no longer disables **bold**. According to ECMA-48, SGR 21 is
      _”double underline_”. Foot does not (yet) implement that, but that’s
      no reason to implement a non-standard behavior.
    * `DECRQM` now returns actual state of the requested mode, instead of
      always returning `2`.
    
    Removed
    -------
    
    * Support for loading configuration from `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/footrc`.
    * `scrollback` option from `foot.ini`.
    * `geometry` from `foot.ini`.
    * Key binding action `scrollback-up` and `scrollback-down`.
    
    Fixed
    -----
    
    * Error when re-assigning a default key binding
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/233).
    * `\E[s`+`\E[u` (save/restore cursor) now saves and restores
      attributes and charset configuration, just like `\E7`+`\E8`.
    * Report mouse motion events to the client application also while
      dragging the cursor outside the grid.
    * Parsing of the sub-parameter versions of indexed SGR color escapes
      (e.g. `\E[38:5...m`)
    * Frames occasionally being rendered while application synchronized
      updates is in effect.
    * Handling of failures to parse the font specification string.
    * Extra private/intermediate characters in escape sequences not being
      ignored.

    * Num Lock by default overrides the keypad mode. See
      **foot.ini**(5)::KEYPAD, or
      [README.md](README.md#user-content-keypad) for details
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/194).
    * Single-width characters with double-width glyphs are now allowed to
      overflow into neighboring cells by default. Set
      **tweak.allow-overflowing-double-width-glyphs** to ‘no’ to disable
      this.
    
    Fixed
    -----
    
    * Resize very slow when window is hidden
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/190).
    * Key mappings for key combinations with `shift`+`tab`
      (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/210).
    * Key mappings for key combinations with `alt`+`return`.
    * `footclient` `-m` (`--maximized`) flag being ignored.
    * Crash with explicitly sized sixels with a height less than 6 pixels.
    * Key mappings for `esc` with modifiers.
