The alpha value needs to be initialized as well.

An example where the new behaviour makes more sense:

Suppose some text is formatted with ATTR_FAINT for red for the foreground, so it
is rendered in a dark red. In that case, when selected with the mouse, the
intended behaviour is that foreground and background color are swapped: so the
selection should be rendered in dark red and the text in the default background
color.

Before this patch, what happened was that the selection would be in normal red
and the text in the darkened background color, making it almost unreadable.

For an example application that uses the FAINT attribute, try dmesg from
util-linux with color support, it uses FAINT for segfault messages.

This reverts commit 274d46ace0.

Sorry, the original commit was correct after all. It allows has the
correct link order and supports static-linking also.

Just a reminder: it is important to give a (brief) rationale of the
patch intentions.

Non-printable characters, such as line breaks, in a base64 encoded
string violate the "string length must be a multiple of four" rule.

This patch pads the result buffer by one extra unit of four bytes,
and skips over non-printable characters found in the input string.

This reverts commit 7f990328e4.

this was wrong as pointed out by k0ga:
"STLDFLAGS is about flags to the linker, for example -L
not about -l for that reason it must go before the object list".

This reverts commit 77c51c5a6b.

Having multiple clipboards are useful, for example for plumber scripts.
I've discussed this on IRC and it is useful to have.

This reverts commit 6cb6d61525.
This wasn't a useful thing after all.

Change some styling too while we're at it.

Attached.

Subject: [PATCH] st.1: modify man page to accurately reflect default
 keybindings

Thanks to tarug0 for the suggestion/patch.

st currently does not keep any mode for the cursor that was active
in the underlying glyph (e.g. italic text), the mode is always
ATTR_NULL [1].  At [2] you can find a screenshot that shows the
implications.  Other terminals (at least vte-based, such as
XFCE-terminal) keep some modes for the cursor.  I find the current
behaviour very disruptive, so here is a patch that keeps a few
(arbitrarily chosen) modes for the cursor.

This is used by, e.g., tmux.

CTRL+SHIFT is an impossible combination in the terminal world
(0x20 | x & 0x1F), so it is perfect to be used for internals
shortcuts of terminals, and being a double combination
reduces the prossibility of having comflicts.

This reverts commit 424202798b.

XftFontMatch does display-specific font configuration (commit 528241a).
Nice. Unfortunately, when we switched from FcFontMatch, we also stopped
storing the post-Fc{Config,Default}Substitute FcPattern for future
lookups. The result is that if a glyph isn't found in the primary font,
secondary font lookups use the original FcPattern, not the configured
one. If you have custom fontconfig rules (like me), this can be
disappointing.

I basically just copied the guts out of XftFontMatch[1] and saved
the intermediate configured FcPattern. Could be related to the bug that
inspired commit 4242027.

When using st with screen, I've bound next, prev, new screen to
combinations like Ctrl-Alt-Right,Left,Down; xterm and (u)rxvt work fine
when this combination of modifiers is pressed, st does not seem to
transport all of them; a single modifier key is fine (e.g. Ctrl-Up,
Alt-Down etc., but combinations are not). While I'm not terribly
familiar with this, I have tried to hack config.h in a more or less
systematic way to generate the expected sequences.

Hi,

When I specify a font by point size (I'm using "Inconsolata:size=12"),
characters that are substituted from another font because they are not in the
main one appear too small.  Doing a zoom reset fixes it.  For example:

Before: http://i.imgur.com/G4Mfv4X.png
After:  http://i.imgur.com/PMDhfQA.png

I found that adding the pixel size (acquired from the initial font load) to the
pattern then reloading the font fixes the problem.  I'm not sure if this is a
proper fix, though.

The two functions strdump(), csidump() are called to show errors and
their output is introduced by a message printed to stderr. Thus, it it
more consistent to have them print to stderr.

Moreover stderr is unbuffered (at least on Linux), making problems
immediately visible.

If fontconfig gives us a font without the attributes we asked for,
display an alternative color instead.

We launch dmenu for getting a codepoint, then convert it and send it to
the terminal.

Also, it's ttyS0 not ttySO.

These sequences are used to operate with sixels, but they are still
str sequences, so they are finished with \a, ST or with a C1 control
code. This patch also disables utf8 handling for the case of sixels.

There are some ocasions where we want to disable the enconding/decoding of utf8, mainly
because it adds an important overhead. This is partial patch for ESC % G and ESC % @,
where they modified the way that st reads and write from/to the serial line, but it does
not modifies how it interacts with the X window part.

We do not need to disable the previous ncv definition, because
there is not previous definition.

With ncv set to 3, we prevent st from displaying A_STANDOUT and
A_UNDERLINE with colors while our virtual terminal is capable of it.

This is for the next release.

If you don't make sure that the terminal does not expand tabs to spaces, of
course such a setting won't work.

st.info needs to be changed too, when tabspaces are changed.

The default config specifies BackSpace as "\177". The default behavior
should persist across modifier keys, commonly Mod1 (Alt or Meta) which
is widely used to delete a word on readline and text editors, notably
Emacs.

This will make Alt+BackSpace behaves as expected, i.e. sends "\033\177"
instead of "\033\010" as previous default behavior.

git am -s didn't like your patch:

From: Mark Edgar <medgar123@gmail.com>

XftFontMatch calls XftDefaultSubstitute which configures various match
properties according to the user's configured Xft defaults (xrdb) as well as
according to the current display and screen. Most importantly, the screen DPI
is computed [1]. Without this, st uses a "default" DPI of 75 [2].

https://tronche.com/gui/x/icccm/sec-2.html#s-2.4 specifies:
> Once all the data in the selection has been retrieved,
> the requestor should delete the property in the SelectionNotify request

Most Clipboard-Owners ignore whether or not the property is already set,
so this is mostly a cosmetic change to keep the windows property list clean.

However, at least synergy decides to wait for the requestor to delete
the properties if they are already set by a previous paste (from synergy).

LEN(str) is one larger than strlen(str) because it also counts the zero
terminator. The original code would include the .notdef glyph (since it'll
try to encode character 0, which gets encoded to the .notdef glyph) when
measuring the average dimensions of printable ascii characters.

This causes problems with fonts like GNU Unifont where the .notdef glyph is
not the same width as the usual half-width characters.
