00:37 <joecool> foot seems to do something none of the other terminals do for me and I haven't found a way to stop it

00:37 <joecool> i'm a screen user and when I type ctrl + a and ', it copies 27;5;59~ in

00:38 <joecool> the screen command still sends but there's a few other key combinations it copies in similar command codes

00:38 <joecool> what's going on when it does this, and can it be turned off?

12:50 <dnkl> joecool: 27;5;59~ is the key sequence for ctrl+;

12:50 <dnkl> for me, screen either does not recognize the command at all (in which case the sequence is printed in the shell/terminal), or it recognizes it, and nothing is printed in the terminal. Never both at the same time

12:51 <dnkl> most likely, screen doesn't recognize the sequence for ctrl+; that foot emits.

12:51 <dnkl> most terminal just emit a plain ';', and not an escape sequence

12:51 <dnkl> foot however implements extended key codes, and emits the sequence above

12:52 <dnkl> I'm not a screen user, but I suspect all you have to do is add a key mapping for this sequence to screen

12:53 <dnkl> or file a feature request for screen, to add support for XTerm's modifyOtherKeys keyboard protocol

12:59 <Lord> hey dnkl is it possible to use fnott without a daemon ?

12:59 <dnkl> Lord: "without a daemon"?

12:59 <dnkl> fnott _is_ a daemon

12:59 <Lord> i used wayherb to send display notification from scripts but it doen't work anymore

13:00 <Lord> so is there a way to just display notification without using the daemon and without dbus

13:00 <Lord> just a way to display small "windows" above everything from scripts

13:01 <dnkl> no

13:01 <dnkl> sorry, there isn't

13:01 <Lord> ok :-/

14:37 <anarcat> dnkl: happy to discuss the history issue here btw :)

14:38 <anarcat> dnkl: another thing i noticed is that fuzzel disregards my overrides in ~/bin/ even though they are first in the path, which is somewhat confusing...

14:38 <anarcat> for example, i have a notmuch-emacs command in ~/bin/ that overrides the default one elsewhere in the $PATH

14:40 <anarcat> in fact, in general, i'm having a hard time trying to figure out what exactly fuzzel will do with a specific desktop entry

14:41 <dnkl> anarcat: better to move this discussion to #fuzzel

14:42 <anarcat> oh, til :)

15:10 <joecool> so can I disable extended key codes then in foot and make it behave like xterm or alacritty does?

15:40 <baltazar> dnkl: btw, apparently my selection bug in irssi is caused by the IL escape sequence (\E[ Ps L)

15:42 <baltazar> or wait

15:43 <baltazar> yeah, so if you do something like `sleep 2; printf '\e[1L'` and make a selection before it prints the thing, it gets borked

15:58 <dnkl> baltazar: thanks, verified

15:59 <dnkl> so, with these escapes, the only thing we can do is cancel the selection (has to do with how scrolling with scroll margins is implemented in foot). This is obviously not happening though

16:03 <dnkl> (DL and IL are implemented, in foot, by scrolling, or reverse-scrolling...)

16:04 <dnkl> technically, we should be able to keep the selection in these cases, but given how everything is wired up, that's not going to be easy. So, my plan is to at least ensure we cancel the selection, to avoid it getting "stuck"

16:05 <baltazar> makes sense

16:07 <dnkl> found it. a typo :|. Fix is a one-liner...

16:07 <dnkl> baltazar: https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/pulls/1221

16:08 <baltazar> nice!
