noname 02d2df5790 Do not eat ESC character if control string is not properly terminated.
Currently tputc handles the case of too long control string waiting for
the end of control string.

Another case is when there is ESC character is encountered but is not
followed by '\\'.  In this case st stops processing control string,
but ESC character is ignored.

After this patch st processes ESC characters in control strings properly.

Test case:
printf '\e]0;abc\e[1mBOLD\e[0m'

Also ^[\ is actually processed in the code that handles ST.
According to ECMA-048 ST stands for STRING TERMINATOR and is used to
close control strings.

st - simple terminal
--------------------
st is a simple virtual terminal emulator for X which sucks less.


Requirements
------------
In order to build st you need the Xlib header files.

Edit config.mk to match your local setup (st is installed into
the /usr/local namespace by default).

Afterwards enter the following command to build and install st (if
necessary as root):

    make clean install

If you did not install st with make clean install, you must compile
the st terminfo entry with the following command:
