P2 selects how the terminal draws the background color.
P2 Meaning
0 or 2 (default) Pixel positions specified as 0 are set to the
current background color.
1 Pixel positions specified as 0 remain at their
current color.
Both modes are now supported.

With this patch, st will reset its window title when an empty string is
given as the terminal title. For example:
printf "\033]0;\007"
Some applications, like termdown, expect this functionality. xterm
implements it, but it seems that most other terminal emulators don't.
In any case, I don't see why there should ever be a case where the st
window doesn't have a title property.

The general reasoning is that the vim browse patch is very invasive,
has a high level of complexity, and is incompatible with a significant
number of other patches and it complicates further maintenance.
Additionally the patch has its own scrollback mechanism which seemingly
did not work properly - and nobody seems to have complained about this
since the patch was added back in May 2021.
If you want to try out the vim browse patch then I would recommend having
a play around with the patch author's own build that has this patch
integrated:
- https://github.com/juliusHuelsmann/st-history-vim
- https://github.com/juliusHuelsmann/st
Alternatively a tag has been added to this repository that refers to the
last commit that still has the vim browse patch:

* sixel: remove black bars from sixel images
When the images don't fully cover the text cells, black bars are added
to them. This fix removes those bars, but if you need the old behavior,
you can restore it by setting 'sixelremovebars' to zero in config.h
* sixel: fix a potential memory leak
* sixel: improve behavior with text reflow
* sixel: prevent animated gifs from choking the terminal
Animated gifs constantly spawn new images that eventually choke the
terminal because the old animation frames are kept in the image buffer.
This fix removes overlapping images from the image buffer and prevents
them from piling up.
* sixel: add zooming and clipping
* sixel: copying bulk of changes
* sixel: move sixel_parser_parse() and add missing sequences and blocks (#113)
- Move sixel_parser_parse() from tputc() to twrite()
- Add missing 8452, DECSDM, XTSMGRAPHICS and XTWINOPS sequences
- Add more conditional blocks for the scrollback and sync patches
- Remove unused reflow_y from ImageList. It is only used for the
scrollback-reflow patch in st-sx.
* sixel: update vtiden to VT200 family
* sixel: fix scrolling issues inside tmux (#114)
tmux is using the scrolling region and sequence to clear the screen
below the shell prompt. This peculiar behavior caused the tscrollup()
function to be called, which always scrolled the images regardless of
whether they were inside the region or not. So the images moved out of
place whenever the bottom of the screen was cleared. This fix checks
that the images are inside the region before scrolling them.
* sixel: prevent images from being deleted when resizing (#115)
This fixes resizing issues outside of tmux not inside.
* Rewriting tresize logic based on veltza's proposed implementation in PR #115
* tresize: correction for tscrollup call when scrollback patch is used

dc.collen is the length of dc.col, not the maximum index, hence if x is
equal to dc.collen, then it's an error.
With config.def.h, the last valid index is 259, so this correctly
reports "black":
$ printf '\033]4;259;?\e\\'
260 is an invalid index and this reports garbage instead of printing an
error:
$ printf '\033]4;260;?\e\\'

This patch fixes the following sixel issues:
- The current sixel implementation cleared all cells from the left side
of the image when the image was drawn. The fix only clears the cells
where the image will be drawn.
- The deletion routine didn't work correctly. In certain situations,
it left the image or images undrawn. For example, if the first image
was marked for deletion, it didn't draw the second one.
- The drawing routine caused a high cpu usage, because XCopyArea()
triggered the X server to send the NoExpose event, which caused sixels
to be redrawn and the X server to send another NoExpose event and so
on. This loop caused constant redraw of sixels and high cpu usage.
The fix prevents the X server from sending GraphicsExpose and NoExpose
events.
The patch also adds a control sequence for removing sixels:
Because the sixels are implemented as overlay images, they cannot be
removed by clearing the underlaying cells. Therefore, we need a control
sequence to remove them. I opted to choose ESC[6J as the control
sequence because it is not used and the number refers to sixels. So when
the lf file manager supports sixels [1], you can use the following
minimal scripts to preview images in lf:
previewer:
#!/bin/sh
case "$(readlink -f "$1")" in
*.bmp|*.gif|*.jpg|*.jpeg|*.png|*.webp|*.six|*.svg|*.xpm)
chafa -s "$(($2-3))x$3" -f sixels "$1"
exit 1 ;;
*)
bat "$1" ;;
esac
cleaner:
#!/bin/sh
printf "\033[6J" >/dev/tty

fix buffer overflow when handling long composed input
To reproduce the issue:
"
If you already have the multi-key enabled on your system, then add this line
to your ~/.XCompose file:
[...]
<question> <T> <E> <S> <T> <question> :
"1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890"
"
Reported by and an initial patch by Andy Gozas <andy@gozas.me>, thanks!
Adapted the patch, for now st (like dmenu) handles a fixed amount of composed
characters, or otherwise ignores it. This is done for simplicity sake.

The openurlonclick and scrollback patches are now working together,
so links can be clicked in the scrollback buffer too. This update also
adds url underlining and other improvements to the openurlonclick patch.
The full list of changes in the openurlonclick patch:
- Adds scrollback support
- Adds modkey option
- Better url detection
- Underlines url when the mouse pointer is over a link
- Opens a browser as a background process, so it won't lock the terminal anymore
- Fixes a segmentation fault bug
This patch replaces the previous one I sent.
The following changes are made in this patch:
- Fix tracking of pressed buttons. Previously, pressing two buttons and
then releasing one would make st think no buttons are pressed, which
in particular broke MODE_MOUSEMOTION.
- Always send the lowest-numbered pressed button on motion events; when
no button is pressed for a motion event in MODE_MOUSEMANY, then send
a release. This matches the behaviour of xterm. (Previously, st sent
the most recently pressed button in the motion report.)
- Remove UB (?) access to potentially inactive struct member
e->xbutton.button of XEvent union.
- Fix (unlikely) possibility of overflow for large button numbers.
The one discrepancy I found between st and xterm is that xterm sometimes
encodes buttons with large numbers (>5) strangely. E.g., xterm reports
presses of buttons 8 and 9 as releases, whereas st properly (?) encodes
them as presses.

from the XmbTextListToTextProperty(3) man page:
"If insufficient memory is available for the new value string, the functions
return XNoMemory. If the current locale is not supported, the functions return
XLocaleNotSupported. In both of these error cases, the functions do not set
text_prop_return."

The bits of uint signal in an XKeyEvent which concern the key group (keyboard
layout) are bits 13 and 14, as documented here:
https://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.7/doc/libX11/XKB/xkblib.html#Groups_and_Shift_Levels
In the older version, only bit 13 was marked as part of XK_SWITCH_MOD, this
causes issues for users who have more than two keymaps. The 14th bit is not
in ignoremod, key sequences are not caught by match(), if they switch to a third
or fourth keyboard.
