- Updated to Patch#366 2021/02/10
* correct a compiler-warning fix in patch #352 which allowed
sign-extension of coordinate values (report by "CismonX").
* correct upper-limit for selection buffer, accounting for combining
characters (report/testcase by Tavis Ormandy).
(CVE-2021-27135 bsc#1182091)
* with alwaysHighlight true, xterm does not properly track focus. The
screen->select FOCUS flag remains always on, which prevents
bellIsUrgent from working, as the urgent WM_HINT flag is only set
in setXUrgency() when the window is not focused. Fix this by
updating screen->select in unselectwindow() regardless of the value
of always_highlight (patch by Jiri Bohac).
* improve fix for interaction between SRM and ENQ (report by Grant
Taylor).
* build-fix for --with-Xaw3dxft, needed when --with-toolbar is
omitted (report by Jimmy Olgeni, Emanuel Haupt).
- Updated to Patch #365 - 2021/02/03
* amend fix for “word” selection in patch #364 to limit that to
the insert-selectable action, which reads data from the screen. This
restores the interactive behavior where double-clicking on a
“word” would make subsequent selection extensions by words as
well as suppressing some boundary-checks (report by David Wolfskill,
FreeBSD #253225).
- Updated to Patch #364 - 2021/02/02
* add -fc option.
* correct/improve limit-checks for SRM versus ENQ from patch #344 (report by Tom Szilagyi).
* enable XftFont resource in Xaw3dxft configuration (patch by Tavis Ormandy).
* improve quoting/escaping in build-scripts per shellcheck.
* add libpcre2-posix to the packages tested for --with-pcre2 option, needed with Fedora (report by Tomas Korbar).
* correct a typo in manual page, and note that KeepClipboard may not be compiled-in (report/patch by Sean C Farley).

* correct manpage description for default value of disallowWindowOps from changes in xterm #331
* correct a loop starting-point in refresh_graphics from optimization in patch #358 changes
* add a new mouse mode 1016, which uses the same format as mode 1006, but sends the mouse's position in pixels
* fix an issue from patch #338 changes where only the first selection buffer specified in the request would be updated using OSC 52
* modify makefile/scripts to allow DESTDIR to prefix the target directory for desktop-file-install
* enable SIXEL feature by default.
* update config.guess, config.sub
* correct logic for decodeTerminalID changes in patch #357

* build-fix for test_ptydata program
* several minor optimizations for the ReGIS and SIXEL features, improving performance by 10%.
* add resource decGraphicsID to allow displaying graphics when the emulation level would ordinarily disallow this
* add control sequences for fast switching of color palettes: XTPUSHCOLORS, XTPOPCOLORS, XTREPORTCOLORS
* amend change for soft-hyphen from patch #328 to avoid stripping replacement-characters which would be shown with malformed or overlong UTF-8 input.
* corrected an error-handling case in decodeUtf8, matching a similar fix in patch #268
* add a test-driver for ptydata.c
* minor cleanup of macros
* fix some errata in ctlseqs.ms
* allow immediate repaint-on-palette-changed if double-buffering is enabled.
* deprecate codes 10/11 in sgr push controls, changing those to 30/31, to avoid confusion with sgr 10-19.
* modify SGR parameter handling to stop if an unrecognized parameter is encountered, to guard against malformed or nonstandard sequences
* modify DECERA color for consistency with other erasures/clearing
* ECH should not be masked by DECSCA
* extend DECFRA and REP to accept any “graphic” character rather than just Latin1, etc.
* add -C option to 256colors2.pl and 88colors2.pl, to demonstrate mixed semicolon/colon separators which are implied by ECMA-48.

- handle MappingNotify X event, to improve recovery when switching keyboard configurations using xkbcomp (prompted by discussion with Frank Mosch, Debian #661295). There is more work needed here, possibly in the X libraries.
- improve discussion of mouse-mode in ctlseqs.ms (suggested by Igor van den Hoven).
- further improve checks for Xft max-advance-width to take into account fonts which use two cells for ambiguous width characters. Also improve the time used for these checks (reports by Yuri Pankov, Frank Mosch).
- fix a few spelling errors reported by codespell (report by Jens Schleusener).
- modify run-tic.sh to prefer development version of ncurses since changes to terminfo file in patch #345 rely upon bug-fixes in ncurses (prompted by discussion with Will Senn).
- Patch #352 - 2020/01/16
- adjust fontsize data to handle a minor inconsistency from recent Xft versions (Debian #880407, adapted from patch by Vincent Lefevre).
- add a table to the manual page description of forceBoxChars to alert the reader to the special characters aside from “line-drawing” which are drawn directly when this resource is set (Debian #931305).
- improve checkXft logic which attempts to detect fonts whose max-advance-width is inconsistent with the actual glyph widths. For some fonts, it is necessary to check additional characters (report/analysis by Jan Engelhardt).
- improve configure-checks for X headers and libraries on recent MacOS, which has moved those files under /usr/X11.
- improve portability of iconify/deiconify feature by taking into account some window managers which manipulate the EWMH _NET_WM_STATE property, adding/removing _NET_WM_STATE_HIDDEN rather than actually minimizing the window (prompted by discussion with Jörg Breitbart).
- improve workaround from patch #287 for the -iconic option when configured with toolbar by postponing the extra request for minimizing the window to the end of menu-initialization.
- modify xevents special-case for mouse-events to include button-events so that the meta key by itself can generate button-events (report/analysis by Mattias Engdegård).
- amend SGR-stack change from patch #348 to not associate bold attribute with background color (report by Nicholas Marriott).

- add -report-icons to help-message.
- improved autoconf macros:
- CF_ADD_LIBS: the change to filter out duplicates caused this to append rather than prepend. revise to fix that.
- CF_GCC_VERSION and CF_GCC_WARNINGS: move checks to distinguish icc/clang from gcc from the macro which handles the --enable-warnings option, to make this work without-warnings for the inline-checks.
