Releases · alacritty/alacritty

Implement the hidden escape sequence (echo -e "\e[8mTEST")
Add support for macOS systemwide dark mode
Set the environment variable COLORTERM="truecolor" to advertise 24-bit color support
On macOS, there are two new values for the config option window.decorations:
- transparent - This makes the title bar transparent and allows the
  viewport to extend to the top of the window.
- buttonless - Similar to transparent but also removed the buttons.
Add support for changing the colors from 16 to 256 in the indexed_colors config section
Add save_to_clipboard configuration option for copying selected text to the system clipboard
New terminfo entry, alacritty-direct, that advertises 24-bit color support
Add support for CSI sequences Cursor Next Line (\e[nE) and Cursor Previous Line (\e[nF)

Inverse/Selection color is now modelled after XTerm/VTE instead of URxvt to improve consistency
First click on unfocused Alacritty windows is no longer ignored on platforms other than macOS
Reduce memory usage significantly by only initializing part of the scrollback buffer at startup
The alacritty terminfo entry no longer requires the xterm definition to be
present on the system
The default TERM value is no longer static; the alacritty entry is used if
available, otherwise the xterm-256color entry is used instead

The terminfo entry alacritty-256color. It is replaced by the alacritty
entry (which also advertises 256 colors)

Rendering now occurs without the terminal locked which improves performance
Clear screen properly before rendering of content to prevent various graphical glitches
Fix build failure on 32-bit systems
Windows started as unfocused now show the hollow cursor if the setting is enabled
Empty lines in selections are now properly copied to the clipboard
Selection start point lagging behind initial cursor position
Rendering of selections which start above the visible area and end below it

The config option window.decorations should now use full or none instead
of true or false, respectively.
