itself hit the "terminal can't keep up" check. To avoid this, record how
much data we send during redraw (we know we will be starting with 0) and
skip the check until it has been flushed. GitHub issue 912.
reasonable amount (currently width * height * 8 bytes), discard all
output to the terminal and start trying to redraw periodically
instead. Continue with this until the amount of data we are trying to
write falls to a low level again.
This helps to prevent tmux sitting on a huge buffer of data when there
are processes with fast output running inside tmux but the outside
terminal is slow.
A new client_discarded format holds the amount of data that has been
discarded due to this mechanism.
The three variables (when to start this, when to stop, and how often to
redraw) are basically "works for me" at the moment, this is going in to
see how it goes and if it causes problems for anyone else.
falls back to an alternative if the tty name is not available. This is
clearer than overloading the client ttyname member and allows us to
remove the path stored in the tty struct, it should always be the same
as the client.
printing cells if it is already at the very end of the line and the
terminal will wrap it to the next line itself, this means terminals
still see it as a wrapped line for the purposes of their own mouse
selection. Reported by millert@.
together instead of handling them one by one. This is significantly
faster. Sequences are terminated when we reach the end of the line, fill
the internal buffer, or a different character is seen by the input
parser (an escape sequence, or UTF-8).
Rather than writing collected sequences out immediately, hold them until
it is necessary (another screen modification, or we consume all
available data). This means we can discard changes that would have no
effect (for example, lines that would just be scrolled off the screen or
cleared). This reduces the total amount of data we write out to the
terminal - not important for fast terminals, but a big help with slow
(like xterm).
main issue is that if we have two panes, A with 1002 and B with 1003, we
need to set 1003 outside tmux in order to get all the mouse events, but
then we need to suppress the ones that pane A doesn't want. This is easy
in SGR mouse mode, because buttons == 3 is only used for movement events
(for other events the trailing m/M marks a release instead), but in
normal mouse mode we can't tell so easily. So for that, look at the
previous event instead - if it is drag+release as well, then the current
event is a movement event.
supports them (that is, if it advertises itself as a VT420 - probably
just xterm). These are the vertical equivalent of the scroll region and
allow much faster scrolling of panes that do not take up the full width
of the terminal.
sequences (notable EL and ED but also IL, DL, ICH, DCH) create blank
cells using the current background colour rather than the default
colour.
On modern systems BCE doesn't really have many benefits, but most other
terminals now support it, some (lazy) applications rely on it, and it is
not hard to include now that we have pane background colours anyway.

instead track them as change (dirty) and update them once at the end,
saves much time if repeatedly writing the same cell. Also fix comparison
of cells being equal in a few places (memcmp is not enough).
wasting unnecessary space. The 'Tc' flag must be set in the external
TERM entry (using terminal-overrides or a custom terminfo entry), if not
tmux will map to the closest of the 256 or 16 colour palettes.

poor idea that was fairly quickly replaced by SGR mouse input (which is
now widespread). It is impossible to tell the difference between UTF-8
and non-UTF-8 mouse input; since the mouse-utf8 option was removed tmux
has not handled it correctly in any case; and it is ridiculous to have
three different forms of mouse input.
of storing a full grid_cell with UTF-8 data and everything, store a new
type grid_cell_entry. This can either be the cell itself (for ASCII
cells), or an offset into an extended array (per line) for UTF-8
data.
This avoid a large (8 byte) overhead on non-UTF-8 cells (by far the
majority for most users) without the complexity of the shadow array we
had before. Grid memory without any UTF-8 is about half.
The disadvantage that cells can no longer be modified in place and need
to be copied out of the grid and back but it turned out to be lot less
complicated than I expected.
historical (incorrect) behaviour for SGR 3 and send smso
(standout). Previously, we would send sitm (italics) if the terminal
outside had it and smso otherwise. This was acceptably until recently
because xterm's terminfo entry lacked sitm, so most users got smso.
People who want italics should set default-terminal to the forthcoming
"tmux" entry (and be prepared to deal with it being missing on older
hosts).
As a side-effect this changes default-terminal to be a server rather
than a session option.

options for "mouse-this" and "mouse-that", mouse events may be bound as
keys and there is one option "mouse" that turns on mouse support
entirely (set -g mouse on).
See the new MOUSE SUPPORT section of the man page for description of the
key names and new flags (-t= to specify the pane or window under mouse
as a target, and send-keys -M to pass through a mouse event).
The default builtin bindings for the mouse are:
bind -n MouseDown1Pane select-pane -t=; send-keys -M
bind -n MouseDown1Status select-window -t=
bind -n MouseDrag1Pane copy-mode -M
bind -n MouseDrag1Border resize-pane -M
To get the effect of turning mode-mouse off, do:
unbind -n MouseDrag1Pane
unbind -temacs-copy MouseDrag1Pane
The old mouse options are now gone, set-option -q may be used to
suppress warnings if mixing configuration files.
so there is no reason for tty_check_bg to mess with the BRIGHT flag at
all, ever. Also use aixterm colours for 256-to-16 translation if the
terminal supports them. And there is no reason for tty_colours_bg to
worry about whether the terminal supports them - tty_check_bg has
already taken care of it.
and use them for the 256 colour set. If the terminfo entry doesn't have
colors#256 and the user gives -2 to the client, use a \033[38;5;Xm
sequence as before. Should allow fbterm to work with it's weird setaf
and setab.
options with a single foo-style option. For example:
set -g status-fg yellow
set -g status-bg red
set -g status-attr blink
Becomes:
set -g status-style fg=yellow,bg=red,blink
The -a flag to set can be used to add to rather than replace a style. So:
set -g status-bg red
Becomes:
set -ag status-style bg=red
Currently this is fully backwards compatible (all *-{fg,bg,attr} options
remain) but the plan is to deprecate them over time.

certain C0 sequences (linefeeds, backspaces, carriage returns) and if it
exceeds a threshold (current default 50/millisecond), start to redraw
the pane every 100 milliseconds instead of making each change as it
comes. Two configuration options - c0-change-trigger and
c0-change-interval.
This makes tmux much more responsive under very fast output (for example
yes(1) or accidentally cat'ing a large file) but may not be perfect on
all terminals and connections - feedback very welcome, particularly
where this change has a negative rather than positive effect (making it
off by default is a possibility).

this is used and the application has requested bracketed pastes, then
tmux surrounds the pasted text by \033[200~ and \033[201~. Applications
like vim can (apparently) use this to avoid, for example, indenting the

using DCS with a "tmux;" prefix. Escape characters in the sequences must
be doubled. For example:
$ printf '\033Ptmux;\033\033]12;red\007\033\\'
Will pass \033]12;red\007 to the terminal (and change the cursor colour
in xterm). From Kevin Goodsell.

If the new mouse-utf8 option is on, UTF-8 mouse input is enabled for all
UTF-8 terminals. The option defaults to on if LANG etc are set in the
same manner as the utf8 option.

terminals (I'm looking at you, putty) which disable the vt100 ACS mode

Also on terminals without ACS at all, use ASCII equivalents where
obvious.
when the client tty backs up too much, just stop updating the tty and
only update the internal screen. Then when the tty recovers, force a
redraw.
This prevents a dodgy client from causing other clients to go into
backoff while still allowing tmux to be responsive (locally) when seeing
lots of output.
starting tmux from .xinitrc.
One of the very few things the server relies on the client for now is to
pass through a message on SIGWINCH, but there is a condition where
potentially a SIGWINCH may be lost during the transition from unattached
(main.c) to attached (client.c). So trigger a size change immediately
after the client installs its SIGWINCH handler.
Also, when the terminal is resized, reset the scroll region and cursor
position. Previously, we were clearing our saved idea of these, but in
fact some terminals do not reset them on resize, so this caused problems
during redraw.
While here make a resize to the same size not cause a redraw and rename
the tmux.out output log file to include the tmux PID.
in copy mode.
Also support the scroll wheel, although xterm strangely does not ignore
it in application mouse mode, causing redraw artifacts when scrolling up
(other terminals appear to be better behaved).
values can be stored in the cached terminal attributes rather than the
requested (untranslated) values. Prevents tmux clearing and setting the
attributes for every character when using aixterm colours.
