Package: screen
Version: 4.0.2-4.1
Severity: normal
screen's so-called "rxvt_osc" option (actually xterm control sequences)
includes handling for OSC parameters 0 and 1. Referring to ctlseqs.ms,
these parameters are of interest:
Ps = 0 -> Change Icon Name and Window Title to Pt
Ps = 1 -> Change Icon Name to Pt
Ps = 2 -> Change Window Title to Pt
screen allows 0 and 1 (it should allow 2, but it is not used as often,
and screen's code is unpalatable). However, it maps the 0 into 1,
setting only the icon name. That isn't useful and is opposite to the
normal sense these control sequences would be used in. It's a one-line
fix to address that (see below).
Also while I'm here, adding a comment to misc.c to note that I fixed a problem
in ncurses long ago (screen's maintainers declined to acknowledge that).
