Definitions

c    The literal character c.

C    A single (required) character.

Ps   A single (usually optional) numeric parameter, composed of one of
     more digits.

Pm   A multiple numeric parameter composed of any number of single
     numeric parameters, separated by ;  character(s).	Individual val-
     ues for the parameters are listed with Ps .

Pt   A text parameter composed of printable characters.

C1 (8-Bit) Control Characters

The xterm 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 equiva-
lent:

ESC D
     Index (IND: 0x84)
ESC E
     Next Line (NEL: 0x85)
ESC H
     Tab Set (HTS: 0x88)
ESC M
     Reverse Index (RI: 0x8d)
ESC N
     Single Shift Select of G2 Character Set (SS2: 0x8e): affects next
     character only
ESC O
     Single Shift Select of G3 Character Set (SS3: 0x8f): affects next
     character only
ESC P
     Device Control String (DCS: 0x90)
ESC V
     Start of Guarded Area (SPA: 0x96)
ESC W
     End of Guarded Area (EPA: 0x97)
ESC X
     Start of String (SOS: 0x98)
ESC Z
     Return Terminal ID (DECID: 0x9a).	Obsolete form of CSI c	(DA).
ESC [
     Control Sequence Introducer (CSI: 0x9b)
ESC \
     String Terminator (ST: 0x9c)
ESC ]
     Operating System Command (OSC: 0x9d)
ESC ^
     Privacy Message (PM: 0x9e)
ESC _
     Application Program Command (APC: 0x9f)

These control characters are used in the vtXXX emulation.

VT100 Mode
Most of these control sequences are standard VT102 control sequences,
but there is support for later DEC VT terminals (i.e., VT220 and VT320),
as well as ISO 6429 and aixterm color controls.  VT102 features not sup-
ported are auto-repeat and blinking characters.  There are additional
control sequences to provide xterm-dependent 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.

Single-character functions
BEL	       Bell (Ctrl-G)
BS	       Backspace (Ctrl-H)
CR	       Carriage Return (Ctrl-M)
ENQ	       Return Terminal Status (Ctrl-E).  Default response is the
	       terminal name, e.g., "xterm", but may be overridden by a
	       resource answerbackString.
FF	       Form Feed or New Page (NP) (Ctrl-L) same as LF
LF	       Line Feed or New Line (NL) (Ctrl-J)
SO	       Shift Out (Ctrl-N) -> Switch to Alternate Character Set:
	       invokes the G1 character set.
SP	       Space.
TAB	       Horizontal Tab (HT) (Ctrl-I)
VT	       Vertical Tab (Ctrl-K) same as LF
SI	       Shift In (Ctrl-O) -> Switch to Standard Character Set:
	       invokes the G0 character set (the default).

Controls beginning with ESC (other than those where ESC is part of a
7-bit equivalent to 8-bit C1 controls), ordered by the final charac-
ter(s).
ESC SP F       7-bit controls (S7C1T).
ESC SP G       8-bit controls (S8C1T).

Application Program-Control functions
APC Pt ST      xterm implements no APC functions; Pt is ignored.  Pt
	       need not be printable characters.

Device-Control functions
DCS Ps; Ps| Pt ST
	       User-Defined Keys (DECUDK).  The first parameter:
		 Ps = 0  -> Clear all UDK definitions before starting
	       (default)
		 Ps = 1  -> Erase Below (default)
	       The second parameter:
		 Ps = 0  -> Lock the keys (default)
		 Ps = 1  -> Do not lock.
	       The third parameter is a ';'-separated list of strings
	       denoting the key-code separated by a '/' from the hex-
	       encoded key value.  The key codes correspond to the DEC
	       function-key codes (e.g., F6=17).
DCS $ q Pt ST  Request Status String (DECRQSS).  The string following
	       the "q" is one of the following:
		 " q	 -> DECSCA
		 " p	 -> DECSCL
		 r	 -> DECSTBM
		 m	 -> SGR
	       xterm responds with DCS 1 $ r Pt ST for valid requests,
	       replacing the Pt with the corresponding CSI string, or
	       DCS 0 $ r Pt ST for invalid requests.
DCS + q Pt ST  Request Termcap/Terminfo String (xterm, experimental).
	       The string following the "q" is a list of names encoded
	       in hexadecimal (2 digits per character) separated by ;
	       which correspond to termcap or terminfo key names.
	       xterm responds with DCS 1 + r Pt ST for valid requests,
	       adding to Pt an = , and the value of the corresponding
	       string that xterm would send, or DCS 0 + r Pt ST for
	       invalid requests.  The strings are encoded in hexadecimal
	       (2 digits per character).

		 -> CSI ? 6 0 ; 1 ; 2 ; 6 ; 8 ; 9 ; 1 5 ; c  (``VT220'')
	       The VT100-style response parameters do not mean anything
	       by themselves.  VT220 parameters do, telling the host
	       what features the terminal supports:

		 -> 6  Selective erase
		 -> 8  User-defined keys
		 -> 9  National replacement character sets
		 -> 1 5  Technical characters
CSI > Ps c     Send Device Attributes (Secondary DA)
		 Ps = 0 , 1 or omitted -> request the terminal's identi-
	       fication code.  The response depends on the decTerminalId
	       resource setting.  It should apply only to VT220 and up,
	       but xterm extends this to VT100.

	       XFree86 patch number, starting with 95).  In a DEC termi-
	       nal, Pc indicates the ROM cartridge registration number
	       and is always zero.

	       Assume that xterm's resources are set so that the ISO

	       it supports the following, from rxvt:
		 Ps = 1 0 0  -> Set foreground and background color to
	       default

	       If 88- or 256-color support is compiled, the following
	       apply.
		 Ps = 3 8  ; 5	; Ps -> Set foreground color to the sec-
	       ond Ps
		 Ps = 4 8  ; 5	; Ps -> Set background color to the sec-
	       ond Ps

	       Enable Filter Rectangle (DECEFR)
	       Parameters are [top;left;bottom;right].
	       Defines the coordinates of a filter rectangle and acti-
	       vates it.  Anytime the locator is detected outside of the
	       filter rectangle, an outside rectangle event is generated
	       and the rectangle is disabled.  Filter rectangles are
	       always treated as "one-shot" events.  Any parameters that
	       are omitted default to the current locator position.  If
	       all parameters are omitted, any locator motion will be
	       reported.  DECELR always cancels any prevous rectangle
	       definition.

	       Valid values for the first (and any additional parame-
	       ters) are:
		 Ps = 0  -> only respond to explicit host requests
	       (DECRQLP)
			    (default) also cancels any filter rectangle
		 Ps = 1  -> report button down transitions
		 Ps = 2  -> do not report button down transitions
		 Ps = 3  -> report button up transitions
		 Ps = 4  -> do not report button up transitions
CSI Ps ' |     Request Locator Position (DECRQLP)
	       Valid values for the parameter are:
		 Ps = 0 , 1 or omitted -> transmit a single DECLRP loca-
	       tor report

	       If Locator Reporting has been enabled by a DECELR, xterm
	       will respond with a DECLRP Locator Report.  This report
	       is also generated on button up and down events if they
	       have been enabled with a DECSLE, or when the locator is
	       detected outside of a filter rectangle, if filter rectan-
	       gles have been enabled with a DECEFR.

		 -> CSI Pe ; Pb ; Pr ; Pc ; Pp &  w

	       Parameters are [event;button;row;column;page].
	       Valid values for the event:
		 Pe = 0  -> locator unavailable - no other parameters
	       sent
		 Pe = 1  -> request - xterm received a DECRQLP
		 Pe = 2  -> left button down
		 Pe = 3  -> left button up
		 Pe = 4  -> middle button down
		 Pe = 5  -> middle button up
		 Pe = 6  -> right button down
		 Pe = 7  -> right button up
		 Pe = 8  -> M4 button down
		 Pe = 9  -> M4 button up
		 Pe = 1 0  -> locator outside filter rectangle
	       ``button'' parameter is a bitmask indicating which but-
	       tons are pressed:
		 Pb = 0  -> no buttons down
		 Pb & 1  -> right button down
		 Pb & 2  -> middle button down
		 Pb & 4  -> left button down
		 Pb & 8  -> M4 button down
	       ``row'' and ``column'' parameters are the coordinates of
	       the locator position in the xterm window, encoded as
	       ASCII decimal.
	       The ``page'' parameter is not used by xterm, and will be
	       omitted.

PC-Style Function Keys
If xterm does minimal translation of the function keys, it usually does
this with a PC-style keyboard, so PC-style function keys result.  Sun
keyboards are similar to PC keyboards.	Both have cursor and scrolling
operations printed on the keypad, which duplicate the smaller cursor and
scrolling keypads.
X does not predefine NumLock (used for VT220 keyboards) or Alt (used as
an extension for the Sun/PC keyboards) as modifiers.  These keys are
recognized as modifiers when enabled by the numLock resource, or by the
DECSET 1 0 3 5	control sequence.
The cursor keys transmit the following escape sequences depending on the
mode specified via the DECCKM escape sequence.

		      Key	  Normal    Application
		  --------------------------------------
		  Cursor Up	 CSI A	    SS3 A
		  Cursor Down	 CSI B	    SS3 B
		  Cursor Right	 CSI C	    SS3 C
		  Cursor Left	 CSI D	    SS3 D

The application keypad transmits the following escape sequences depend-
ing on the mode specified via the DECPNM and DECPAM escape sequences.
Use the NumLock key to override the application mode.
Not all keys are present on the Sun/PC keypad (e.g., PF1, Tab), but are
supported by the program.

Older versions of xterm implement different escape sequences for F1
through F4.  These can be activated by setting the oldXtermFKeys
resource.  However, since they do not correspond to any hardware termi-
nal, they have been deprecated.  (The DEC VT220 reserves F1 through F5
for local functions such as Setup).

		       F4	  CSI 1 4 ~

In normal mode, i.e., a Sun/PC keyboard when the sunKeyboard resource is
false, xterm recognizes function key modifiers which are parameters
appended before the final character of the control sequence.

		       7       Alt + Control
		       8       Shift + Alt + Control

For example, shift-F5 would be sent as CSI 1 5 ; 2 ~

If the alwaysUseMods resource is set, the Meta modifier also is recog-
nized, making parameters 9 through 16.

VT220-Style Function Keys
However, xterm is most useful as a DEC VT102 or VT220 emulator.  Set the
sunKeyboard resource to true to force a Sun/PC keyboard to act like a
VT220 keyboard.
The VT102/VT220 application keypad transmits unique escape sequences in
application mode, which are distinct from the cursor and scrolling key-
pad:

The VT220 provides 8 additional function keys.	With a Sun/PC keyboard,
access these keys by Control/F1 for F13, etc.

VT52-Style Function Keys
A VT52 does not have function keys, but it does have a numeric keypad
and cursor keys.  They differ from the other emulations by the prefix.
Also, the cursor keys do not change:

Sun-Style Function Keys
The xterm program provides support for Sun keyboards more directly, by a
menu toggle that causes it to send Sun-style function key codes rather
than VT220.  Note, however, that the sun and vt100 emulations are not
really compatible.  For example, their wrap-margin behavior differs.
Only function keys are altered; keypad and cursor keys are the same.
The emulation responds identically.  See the xterm-sun terminfo entry
for details.

HP-Style Function Keys
Similarly, xterm can be compiled to support HP keyboards.  See the
xterm-hp terminfo entry for details.

Mouse Tracking
The VT widget can be set to send the mouse position and other informa-
tion 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 CSI Ps ; Ps  'z control sequence, and is not
described here.  The remaining five modes are each enabled (or disabled)
by a different parameter in DECSET CSI ? Pm h or DECRST CSI ? Pm l con-
trol sequence.

Manifest constants for the parameter values are defined in xcharmouse.h
as follows:

		#define SET_X10_MOUSE		    9
		#define SET_VT200_MOUSE 	    1000
		#define SET_VT200_HIGHLIGHT_MOUSE   1001
		#define SET_BTN_EVENT_MOUSE	    1002
		#define SET_ANY_EVENT_MOUSE	    1003

The motion reporting modes are strictly xterm 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 xterm encode numeric parameters
in a single character as value+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, xterm sends CSI M
CbCxCy (6 characters).	Cb is button-1.  Cx and Cy are the x and y coor-
dinates 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, xterm sends CSI M CbCxCy.  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
xterm uses the control modifier with mouse for popup menus, and the
shift modifier is used in the default translations for button events.
The Meta modifier recognized by xterm is the mod1 mask, and is not nec-
essarily the "Meta" key (see xmodmap).	Cx and Cy are the x and y coor-
dinates of the mouse event, encoded as in X10 mode.

Wheel mice may return buttons 4 and 5.	Those buttons are represented by
adding 64 to the event code.

Mouse hilite 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 but-
ton events can be received.  Warning: use of this mode requires a coop-
erating program or it will hang xterm.	On button press, the same infor-
mation as for normal tracking is generated; xterm then waits for the
program to send mouse tracking information.  All X events are ignored
until the proper escape sequence is received from the pty: CSI Ps ; Ps ;
Ps ; Ps ; Ps T .  The parameters are func, startx, starty, firstrow, and
lastrow.  func is non-zero to initiate hilite tracking and zero to
abort.	startx and starty give the starting x and y location for the
highlighted region.  The ending location tracks the mouse, but will
never be above row firstrow and will always be above row lastrow.  (The
top of the screen is row 1.)  When the button is released, xterm reports
the ending position one of two ways: if the start and end coordinates
are valid text locations: CSI t CxCy.  If either coordinate is past the
end of the line: CSI T CxCyCxCyCxCy.  The parameters are startx, starty,
endx, endy, mousex, and mousey.  startx, starty, endx, and endy give the
starting and ending character positions of the region.	mousex and
mousey 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
xterm 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, xterm sends the same codes used by normal tracking mode.  On
button-motion events, xterm adds 32 to the event code (the third charac-
ter, 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 CSI M @ CxCy.  ( @	= 32 + 0 (button 1) + 32 (motion
indicator) ).  Similarly, motion with button 3 down is reported as CSI M
B CxCy.  ( B  = 32 + 2 (button 3) + 32 (motion indicator) ).

Any-event mode is the same as button-event mode, except that all motion
events are reported instead of just those that enter a new character
cell.  It is enabled by specifying 1003 to DECSET.

Tektronix 4014 Mode
Most of these sequences are standard Tektronix 4014 control sequences.
Graph mode supports the 12-bit addressing of the Tektronix 4014.  The
major features missing are the write-through and defocused modes.  This
document does not describe the commands used in the various Tektronix
plotting modes but does describe the commands to switch modes.
