Roberto E. Vargas Caballero 950ff21e17 Fix bug restoring cursor position
Sequences like DECSC, DECRC, ESC [?1047l or ESC [?1047h save and restore
cursor attributes, than taken from vt100 manual are:

       Save Cursor (DECSC) ESC   7
       ===========================
       Saves the following in terminal memory.

      - cursor position
      - graphic rendition
      - character set shift state
      - state of wrap flag
      - state of origin mode

      Restore Cursor (DECRC) ESC 8
      ===========================
      Restores the states described for (DECSC) above. If none of these
      characteristics were saved, the cursor moves to home position; origin
      mode is reset; no character attributes are assigned; and the default
      character set mapping is established.

This implies that hide attribute of the cursor should not be saved/restored
in these sequences. The best way to fix this problem is moving hide
attribute into the terminal mode, instead of having it in the cursor state.

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.


Installation
------------
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


Running st
----------
If you don't install st, define TNAME to "xterm" in config.h or make sure to at
least compile st terminfo entry with the following command:

    tic -s st.info

It should print the path of the compiled terminfo entry. You can
safely remove it if you don't plan to use st anymore.
See the man page for additional details.
