With a minimum contrast set, the colored glyphs that Powerline uses
would sometimes be set to white or black while the surrounding background
colors remain unchanged, breaking up contiguous colors on segments of
the Powerline.
This no longer happens with this patch as Powerline glyphs are now
special-cased and exempt from the minimum contrast adjustment.
There are scenarios where this configuration looks bad. This commit
introduces some heuristics to prevent it. Here are the heuristics:
* Extension is always enabled on alt screen.
* Extension is disabled if a row contains any default bg color. The
thinking is that in this scenario, using the default bg color looks
just fine.
* Extension is disabled if a row is marked as a prompt (using semantic
prompt sequences). The thinking here is that prompts often contain
perfect fit glyphs such as Powerline glyphs and those look bad when
extended.
This introduces some CPU cost to the extension feature but it should be
minimal and respects dirty tracking. This is unfortunate but the feature
makes many terminal scenarios look much better and the performance cost
is minimal so I believe it is worth it.
Further heuristics are likely warranted but this should be a good
starting set.
When set, the cursor-invert-fg-bg option uses the inverted foreground
and background colors of the cursor's current cell to color the cursor,
rather than using a fixed color. This option has higher precedence than
the cursor-color and cursor-text options, but has lower precedence than
an OSC 12 command to change the cursor color.
Some CoreFoundation objects, such as those produced by CoreText, have
expensive callbacks that run when they are released. By offloading the
CFRelease calls to another thread, we can avoid important threads being
blocked by unexpectedly expensive callbacks.
This commit also changes the way that the coretext shaper's run iterator
builds its string. Rather than using a CFMutableString, an ArrayList of
unichars is built which is passed to CFStringCreateWithCharactersNoCopy,
which is a lot more efficient since it avoids all the CoreFoundation
overhead.
Fixes#1784
This was just a misunderstanding of the "spec." When both a y offset
into the image is specified and a height, the image should be stretched.
I mistakingly thought that the image should be offset (even with this
misunderstanding there was a data corruption bug).
This resolves the issue and output matches Kitty.
