Patch #280 - 2012/06/24
* add configure check to work around warning from
desktop-file-install for "Encoding", noting that it emits
deprecation warnings without providing its version information.
* add configure option --with-icon-theme to tell xterm whether to
install into an icon theme, defaulting to "hicolor" (Redhat
#755206, #799614 and #804279).
* change --with-icondir to look for "icons" directory rather than
"pixmaps" by default. Add new option --with-pixmapdir to allow
these two uses to be installed concurrently.
* modify configure options --with-app-defaults and --with-icondir to
accept "auto" as value to look for existing directory from
well-known locations.
* add missing codes for secondary DA response which tell the type of
terminal as in the primary DA response.
* update primary DA response for VT420 to include user windows and
horizontal scrolling.
* add modifyKeyboard resource to support keypad-modifier changes per
request by Thomas Wolff add XK_Home / XK_End to editing-keypad
checks
* add back-tab key kB to termcap entries to match the terminfo.
* update terminfo to match corresponding entries in ncurses, e.g.,
add XT and adjust sgr string for xterm-bold entry.
* add configure options to predefine the most commonly customized
resources for terminal-settings, use those to substitute into the
manpage the corresponding compiled-in values: altSendsEscape,
backarrowKey, backarrowKeyIsErase, deleteIsDEL, metaSendsEscape
(Redhat #819588).
* change default emulation level to VT420 (discussion with Ailin
Nemui).
* improve logic for DECSCL; patch 279 partly enforced limitation of
this to higher-level emulations. This patch finishes that change.
* improve check for base of combining characters, preventing
combination when cursor movement has intervened. Mosh's webpage
gives two different examples of this, with other causes ascribed to
the behavior.
* modify IL/DL to set cursor to first column on row for better
VT102/VT220 compatibility (prompted by code review of mosh).
* separate state-table entries for DECSC/DECRC from the ANSI.SYS
save/restore cursor, since the latter conflicts with DECSLRM when
DECLRMM is enabled since patch #279 (report/analysis by Ailin
Nemui).
* fixes to avoid using SIGCHLD handler of main program in printer's
subprocess (report by Joe Julian).
* correct restore-parameter for mouse-modes from patch #279 changes.
* add null-pointer checks to input-method caching added in patch #277
to fix a problem in the exposure code, when deselecting a window
(report by Kriston Rehberg).
* unset DESKTOP_STARTUP_ID environment variable to lessen confusion
on the part of GTK applications which use the variable without
checking it (report by John Little).
