The literal character \fIc\fP.
.IP \*(Cc
A single (required) character.
.IP \*(Ps
A single (usually optional) numeric parameter, composed of one of more digits.
.IP \*(Pm
A multiple numeric parameter composed of any number of single numeric
parameters, separated by \*; character(s).
Individual values for the parameters are listed with \*(Ps .

C1 (8-Bit) Control Characters
.ds RH C1 (8-Bit) Control Characters
.LP
The \fIxterm\fP program recognizes both 8-bit and 7-bit control characters.
It generates 7-bit controls (by default) or 8-bit if S8C1T is enabled.
The following pairs of 7-bit and 8-bit control characters are equivalent:

These control characters are used in the vtXXX emulation.

VT100 Mode
.ds RH VT100 Mode
.LP
Most of these control sequences are standard VT102 control sequences,
but there is support for later DEC VT terminals (i.e., VT220, VT320, VT420),
as well as ISO 6429 and \fIaixterm\fP color controls.
The only VT102 features not supported is auto-repeat,
since the only way X provides for this will affect all windows.
There are additional control sequences to provide
\fIxterm-\fPdependent functions, such as the scrollbar or window size.
Where the function is specified by DEC or ISO 6429, the code assigned
to it is given in parentheses. The escape codes to designate and invoke
character sets are specified by ISO 2022; see that document for a
discussion of character sets.

The color numbers correspond to the ANSI colors 0-7,
their bright versions 8-15,

If a "?" is given rather than a name or RGB specification,

They are not the same as the ANSI colors.
One or more parameters is expected for \*(Pt.
Each successive parameter changes the next color in the list.
The value of \*(Ps tells the starting point in the list.
The colors are specified by name or RGB specification as per \fIXParseColor\fP.

a menu toggle that causes it to send Sun-style function key codes rather than VT220.

The emulation responds identically.

Similarly, \fIxterm\fP can be compiled to support HP keyboards.
See the xterm-hp terminfo entry for details.

The Alternate Screen Buffer
.LP
\fBXterm\fP maintains two screen buffers.
The normal screen buffer allows you to scroll back to view saved lines
of output up to the maximum set by the \fBsaveLines\fP resource.
The alternate screen buffer is exactly as large as the display,
contains no additional saved lines.
When the alternate screen buffer is active,
you cannot scroll back to view saved lines.
\fBXterm\fP provides control sequences and menu entries
for switching between the two.
Most full-screen applications use terminfo or termcap to obtain
strings used to start/stop full-screen mode,
i.e., \fIsmcup\fP and \fIrmcup\fP for terminfo,
or the corresponding \fIti\fP and \fIte\fP for termcap.
The \fBtiteInhibit\fP resource removes the \fIti\fP and \fIte\fP strings
from the TERMCAP string which is set in the environment for some platforms.
That is not done when \fBxterm\fP is built with terminfo libraries because
terminfo does not provide the whole text of the termcap data in one piece.
It would not work for terminfo anyway, since terminfo data is not passed
in environment variables;
setting an environment variable in this manner would have no effect on
the application's ability to switch between normal and alternate screen
buffers.
Instead, the newer private mode controls
(such as \*1\*0\*4\*9)
for switching between normal
and alternate screen buffers simply disable the switching.
They add other features such as clearing the display for the same reason:
to make the details of switching independent of the application that
requests the switch.

Mouse Tracking
.ds RH Mouse Tracking
.LP
The VT widget can be set to send the mouse position and other
information on button presses. These modes are typically used by
editors and other full-screen applications that want to make use of
the mouse.
There are six mutually exclusive modes.
One is DEC Locator mode, enabled by the
DECELR \*(Cs\*(Ps\*s\*;\*(Ps\*s\*s\*(qu\*s\*z
control sequence, and is not described here
(control sequences are summarized above).
The remaining five
modes are each enabled (or disabled) by a different parameter in
DECSET \*(Cs\*?\*(Pm\*s\*h
or
DECRST \*(Cs\*?\*(Pm\*s\*l
control sequence.
Manifest constants for the parameter values
are defined in \fBxcharmouse.h\fP as follows:
.

#define SET_X10_MOUSE 9
#define SET_VT200_MOUSE 1000

.LP
The motion reporting modes are strictly \fIxterm\fP extensions, and are not
part of any standard, though they are analogous to the DEC VT200 DECELR
locator reports.
Parameters (such as pointer position and button number) for all mouse
tracking escape sequences generated by \fIxterm\fP
encode numeric parameters in a single character as
\fIvalue\fP+32.
For example, \*! specifies the value 1.
The upper left character position on the terminal is denoted as 1,1.
X10 compatibility mode sends an escape sequence only on button press,
encoding the location and the mouse button pressed.
It is enabled by specifying parameter 9 to DECSET.
On button press, \fIxterm\fP sends
\*(Cs\*M\*(Cb\*(Cx\*(Cy (6 characters).
\*(Cb is button\-1.
\*(Cx and \*(Cy are the x and y coordinates of the mouse when the
button was pressed.
Normal tracking mode sends an escape sequence on both button press and
release. Modifier key (shift, ctrl, meta) information is also sent.
It is enabled by specifying parameter 1000 to DECSET.
On button press or release, \fIxterm\fP sends
\*(Cs\*M\*(Cb\*(Cx\*(Cy.
The low two bits of \*(Cb encode button information:
0=MB1 pressed, 1=MB2 pressed, 2=MB3 pressed, 3=release.
The next three bits encode the modifiers which were down when the button was
pressed and are added together: 4=Shift, 8=Meta, 16=Control.
Note however that the shift and control bits are normally unavailable
because \fIxterm\fP uses the control modifier with mouse for popup menus,
and the shift modifier is used in the default translations for button events.
The \fIMeta\fP modifier recognized by \fIxterm\fP is the \fImod1\fP mask,
and is not necessarily the "Meta" key (see \fIxmodmap\fP).
\*(Cx and \*(Cy are the x and y coordinates of the mouse event, encoded as
in X10 mode.
Wheel mice may return buttons 4 and 5.
Those buttons are represented by the same event codes
as buttons 1 and 2 respectively,
except that 64 is added to the event code.
Release events for the wheel buttons are not reported.
Mouse highlight tracking notifies a program of a button press, receives a
range of lines from the program, highlights the region covered by
the mouse within that range until button release, and then sends the
program the release coordinates.
It is enabled by specifying parameter 1001 to DECSET.
Highlighting is performed only for button 1, though other button events
can be received.
\fBWarning:\fP use of this mode requires a cooperating program or it will
hang \fIxterm.\fP
On button press, the same information as for normal tracking is
generated; \fIxterm\fP then waits for the program to send mouse
tracking information.
\fIAll X events are ignored until the proper escape sequence is
received from the pty:\fP
\*(Cs\*(Ps\*s\*;\*(Ps\*s\*;\*(Ps\*s\*;\*(Ps\*s\*;\*(Ps\*s\*T.
The parameters are \fIfunc, startx, starty, firstrow,\fP and \fIlastrow.\fP
\fIfunc\fP is non-zero to initiate highlight tracking and zero to abort.
\fIstartx\fP and \fIstarty\fP give the starting x and y location for
the highlighted region. The ending location tracks the mouse, but
will never be above row \fIfirstrow\fP and will always be above row
\fIlastrow.\fP (The top of the screen is row 1.)
When the button is released, \fIxterm\fP reports the ending position
one of two ways: if the start and end coordinates are valid text
locations: \*(Cs\*t\*(Cx\*(Cy. If either coordinate is past
the end of the line:
\*(Cs\*T\*(Cx\*(Cy\*(Cx\*(Cy\*(Cx\*(Cy.
The parameters are \fIstartx, starty, endx, endy, mousex,\fP and \fImousey.\fP
\fIstartx, starty, endx, \fPand\fI endy\fP give the starting and
ending character positions of the region. \fImousex\fP and \fImousey\fP
give the location of the mouse at button up, which may not be over a
character.
Button-event tracking is essentially the same as normal tracking, but
\fIxterm\fP also reports button-motion events. Motion events
are reported only if the mouse pointer has moved to a different character
cell. It is enabled by specifying parameter 1002 to DECSET.
On button press or release, \fIxterm\fP sends the same codes used by normal
tracking mode. On button-motion events, \fIxterm\fP adds 32 to the event code
(the third character, \*(Cb).
The other bits of the event code specify button and modifier keys as in normal mode.
For example, motion into cell x,y with button 1
down is reported as \*(Cs\*M\*@\*(Cx\*(Cy.
( \*@ = 32 + 0 (button 1) + 32 (motion indicator) ).
Similarly, motion with button 3
down is reported as \*(Cs\*M\*(cB\*(Cx\*(Cy.
( \*(cB = 32 + 2 (button 3) + 32 (motion indicator) ).
Any-event mode is the same as button-event mode, except that all motion
events are reported, even if no mouse button is down.
It is enabled by specifying 1003 to DECSET.
