Release 1.7.0
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)
* `DECSET 80` - sixel scrolling
(https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/361).
* `DECSET 1070` - sixel private color palette
(https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/362).
* `DECSET 8452` - position cursor to the right of sixels
(https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/363).
* 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.
