X + -------------+----------+------------- + + +Sun-Style Function Keys +The xterm program provides support for Sun keyboards more directly, by a +menu toggle that causes it to send Sun-style function key codes rather +than VT220. Note, however, that the sun and VT100 emulations are not +really compatible. For example, their wrap-margin behavior differs. + +Only function keys are altered; keypad and cursor keys are the same. +The emulation responds identically. See the xterm-sun terminfo entry +for details. + +HP-Style Function Keys +Similarly, xterm can be compiled to support HP keyboards. See the +xterm-hp terminfo entry for details. + +The Alternate Screen Buffer +Xterm maintains two screen buffers. The normal screen buffer allows you +to scroll back to view saved lines of output up to the maximum set by +the saveLines resource. The alternate screen buffer is exactly as large +as the display, contains no additional saved lines. When the alternate +screen buffer is active, you cannot scroll back to view saved lines. +Xterm provides control sequences and menu entries for switching between +the two. + +Most full-screen applications use terminfo or termcap to obtain strings +used to start/stop full-screen mode, i.e., smcup and rmcup for terminfo, +or the corresponding ti and te for termcap. The titeInhibit resource +removes the ti and te strings from the TERMCAP string which is set in +the environment for some platforms. That is not done when xterm is +built with terminfo libraries because terminfo does not provide the +whole text of the termcap data in one piece. It would not work for ter- +minfo anyway, since terminfo data is not passed in environment vari- +ables; setting an environment variable in this manner would have no +effect on the application's ability to switch between normal and alter- +nate screen buffers. Instead, the newer private mode controls (such as +1 0 4 9 ) for switching between normal and alternate screen buffers sim- +ply disable the switching. They add other features such as clearing the +display for the same reason: to make the details of switching indepen- +dent of the application that requests the switch. + +Bracketed Paste Mode +When bracketed paste mode is set, pasted text is bracketed with control +sequences so that the program can differentiate pasted text from typed- +in text. When bracketed paste mode is set, the program will receive: + ESC [ 2 0 0 ~ , +followed by the pasted text, followed by + ESC [ 2 0 1 ~ . + +Title Modes +The window- and icon-labels can be set or queried using control +sequences. As a VT220-emulator, xterm "should" limit the character +encoding for the corresponding strings to ISO-8859-1. Indeed, it used +to be the case (and was documented) that window titles had to be +ISO-8859-1. This is no longer the case. However, there are many appli- +cations which still assume that titles are set using ISO-8859-1. So +that is the default behavior. + +If xterm is running with UTF-8 encoding, it is possible to use window- +and icon-labels encoded using UTF-8. That is because the underlying X +libraries (and many, but not all) window managers support this feature. + +The utf8Title X resource setting tells xterm to disable a reconversion +of the title string back to ISO-8859-1, allowing the title strings to be +interpreted as UTF-8. The same feature can be enabled using the title +mode control sequence described in this summary. + +Separate from the ability to set the titles, xterm provides the ability +to query the titles, returning them either in ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8. This +choice is available only while xterm is using UTF-8 encoding. + +Finally, the characters sent to, or returned by a title control are less +constrained than the rest of the control sequences. To make them more +manageable (and constrained), for use in shell scripts, xterm has an +optional feature which decodes the string from hexadecimal (for setting +titles) or for encoding the title into hexadecimal when querying the +value. + +Mouse Tracking +The VT widget can be set to send the mouse position and other informa- +tion on button presses. These modes are typically used by editors and +other full-screen applications that want to make use of the mouse. + +There are two sets of mutually exclusive modes: +o mouse protocol +o protocol encoding + +The mouse protocols include DEC Locator mode, enabled by the DECELR CSI +Ps ; Ps ' z control sequence, and is not described here (control +sequences are summarized above). The remaining five modes of the mouse +protocols are each enabled (or disabled) by a different parameter in the +"DECSET CSI ? Pm h " or "DECRST CSI ? Pm l " control sequence. + +Manifest constants for the parameter values are defined in xcharmouse.h +as follows: + + #define SET_X10_MOUSE 9 + #define SET_VT200_MOUSE 1000 + #define SET_VT200_HIGHLIGHT_MOUSE 1001 + #define SET_BTN_EVENT_MOUSE 1002 + #define SET_ANY_EVENT_MOUSE 1003 + + #define SET_FOCUS_EVENT_MOUSE 1004 + + #define SET_EXT_MODE_MOUSE 1005 + #define SET_SGR_EXT_MODE_MOUSE 1006 + #define SET_URXVT_EXT_MODE_MOUSE 1015 + + #define SET_ALTERNATE_SCROLL 1007 + +The motion reporting modes are strictly xterm extensions, and are not +part of any standard, though they are analogous to the DEC VT200 DECELR +locator reports. + +Normally, parameters (such as pointer position and button number) for +all mouse tracking escape sequences generated by xterm encode numeric +parameters in a single character as value+32. For example, ! specifies +the value 1. The upper left character position on the terminal is +denoted as 1,1. This scheme dates back to X10, though the normal mouse- +tracking (from X11) is more elaborate. +X10 compatbility mode + +X10 compatibility mode sends an escape sequence only on button press, +encoding the location and the mouse button pressed. It is enabled by +specifying parameter 9 to DECSET. On button press, xterm sends CSI M +CbCxCy (6 characters). +o Cb is button-1. +o Cx and Cy are the x and y coordinates of the mouse when the button was + pressed. +Normal tracking mode + +Normal tracking mode sends an escape sequence on both button press and +release. Modifier key (shift, ctrl, meta) information is also sent. It +is enabled by specifying parameter 1000 to DECSET. On button press or +release, xterm sends CSI M CbCxCy. +o The low two bits of Cb encode button information: 0=MB1 pressed, 1=MB2 + pressed, 2=MB3 pressed, 3=release. +o The next three bits encode the modifiers which were down when the but- + ton was pressed and are added together: 4=Shift, 8=Meta, 16=Control. + Note however that the shift and control bits are normally unavailable + because xterm uses the control modifier with mouse for popup menus, + and the shift modifier is used in the default translations for button + events. The Meta modifier recognized by xterm is the mod1 mask, and + is not necessarily the "Meta" key (see xmodmap). +o Cx and Cy are the x and y coordinates of the mouse event, encoded as + in X10 mode. +Wheel mice + +Wheel mice may return buttons 4 and 5. Those buttons are represented by +the same event codes as buttons 1 and 2 respectively, except that 64 is +added to the event code. Release events for the wheel buttons are not +reported. By default, the wheel mouse events are translated to scroll- +back and scroll-forw actions. Those actions normally scroll the whole +window, as if the scrollbar was used. However if Alternate Scroll mode +is set, then cursor up/down controls are sent when the terminal is dis- +playing the alternate screen. The initial state of Alternate Scroll +mode is set using the alternateScroll resource. +Highlight tracking + +Mouse highlight tracking notifies a program of a button press, receives +a range of lines from the program, highlights the region covered by the +mouse within that range until button release, and then sends the program +the release coordinates. It is enabled by specifying parameter 1001 to +DECSET. Highlighting is performed only for button 1, though other but- +ton events can be received. + +Warning: use of this mode requires a cooperating program or it will hang +xterm. + +On button press, the same information as for normal tracking is gener- +ated; xterm then waits for the program to send mouse tracking informa- +tion. All X events are ignored until the proper escape sequence is +received from the pty: CSI Ps ; Ps ; Ps ; Ps ; Ps T . The parameters +are func, startx, starty, firstrow, and lastrow. func is non-zero to +initiate highlight tracking and zero to abort. startx and starty give +the starting x and y location for the highlighted region. The ending +location tracks the mouse, but will never be above row firstrow and will +always be above row lastrow. (The top of the screen is row 1.) When +the button is released, xterm reports the ending position one of two +ways: +o if the start and end coordinates are the same locations: + CSI t CxCy. +o otherwise: + CSI T CxCyCxCyCxCy. + The parameters are startx, starty, endx, endy, mousex, and mousey. + - startx, starty, endx, and endy give the starting and ending charac- + ter positions of the region. + - mousex and mousey give the location of the mouse at button up, which + may not be over a character. +Button-event tracking + +Button-event tracking is essentially the same as normal tracking, but +xterm also reports button-motion events. Motion events are reported +only if the mouse pointer has moved to a different character cell. It +is enabled by specifying parameter 1002 to DECSET. On button press or +release, xterm sends the same codes used by normal tracking mode. +o On button-motion events, xterm adds 32 to the event code (the third + character, Cb). +o The other bits of the event code specify button and modifier keys as + in normal mode. For example, motion into cell x,y with button 1 down + is reported as CSI M @ CxCy. ( @ = 32 + 0 (button 1) + 32 (motion + indicator) ). Similarly, motion with button 3 down is reported as CSI + M B CxCy. ( B = 32 + 2 (button 3) + 32 (motion indicator) ). +Any-event tracking + +Any-event mode is the same as button-event mode, except that all motion +events are reported, even if no mouse button is down. It is enabled by +specifying 1003 to DECSET. +FocusIn/FocusOut + +FocusIn/FocusOut can be combined with any of the mouse events since it +uses a different protocol. When set, it causes xterm to send CSI I +when the terminal gains focus, and CSI O when it loses focus. +Extended coordinates + +The original X10 mouse protocol limits the Cx and Cy ordinates to 223 +(=255 - 32). Xterm supports more than one scheme for extending this +range, by changing the protocol encoding: +UTF-8 (1005) + This enables UTF-8 encoding for Cx and Cy under all tracking + modes, expanding the maximum encodable position from 223 to + 2015. For positions less than 95, the resulting output is + identical under both modes. Under extended mouse mode, posi- + tions greater than 95 generate "extra" bytes which will con- + fuse applications which do not treat their input as a UTF-8 + stream. Likewise, Cb will be UTF-8 encoded, to reduce confu- + sion with wheel mouse events. + Under normal mouse mode, positions outside (160,94) result in + byte pairs which can be interpreted as a single UTF-8 charac- + ter; applications which do treat their input as UTF-8 will + almost certainly be confused unless extended mouse mode is + active. + This scheme has the drawback that the encoded coordinates will + not pass through luit unchanged, e.g., for locales using non- + UTF-8 encoding. +SGR (1006) + The normal mouse response is altered to use CSI < followed by + semicolon-separated encoded button value, the Cx and Cy ordi- + nates and a final character which is M for button press and m + for button release. + o The encoded button value in this case does not add 32 since + that was useful only in the X10 scheme for ensuring that the + byte containing the button value is a printable code. + o The modifiers are encoded in the same way. + o A different final character is used for button release to + resolve the X10 ambiguity regarding which button was + released. + The highlight tracking responses are also modified to an SGR- + like format, using the same SGR-style scheme and button-encod- + ings. +URXVT (1015) + The normal mouse response is altered to use CSI followed by + semicolon-separated encoded button value, the Cx and Cy ordi- + nates and final character M . + This uses the same button encoding as X10, but printing it as + a decimal integer rather than as a single byte. + However, CSI M can be mistaken for DL (delete lines), while + the highlight tracking CSI T can be mistaken for SD (scroll + down), and the Window manipulation controls. For these rea- + sons, the 1015 control is not recommended; it is not an + improvement over 1005. + +Sixel Graphics +If xterm is configured as VT240, VT241, VT330, VT340 or VT382 using the +decTerminalID resource, it supports Sixel Graphics controls, a palleted +bitmap graphics system using sets of six vertical pixels as the basic +element. + +CSI Ps c xterm responds to Send Device Attributes (Primary DA) with + these additional codes: + Ps = 4 -> Sixel graphics. +CSI ?
