If there is data being output when a tab is closed, that can sometimes
result in the application crashing, because the renderer may still be in
use at the time is it destroyed. This PR attempts to prevent that from
happening by adding a lock in the `TermControl::Close` method.
What we're trying to prevent is the connection thread still being
active, and potentially accessing the renderer, after it has been
destroyed. So by acquiring the terminal lock in `TermControl::Close`,
after we've stopped accepting new output, we can be sure that the
connection thread is no longer active (it holds the lock while it is
processing output). So once we've acquired and released the lock, it
should be safe to tear down and destroy the renderer.
## Validation Steps Performed
While this crash is difficult to reproduce in general usage, it occurred
quite frequently when testing my `DECPS` implementation (there is some
tricky thread synchronisation, which seems more likely to trigger the
issue). With this patch applied, though, those crashes have stopped
occurring.
I've also stepped through the shutdown code in the debugger, manually
freezing threads to get them aligned in the right way to trigger the
crash (as explained in issue #8734). Again with the patch applied, I can
no longer get the crash to occur.
Closes#8734

I loved the pixel shaders in #7058, but that PR needed a bit of polish
to be ready for ingestion. This PR is almost _exactly_ that PR, with
some small changes.
* It adds a new pre-profile setting `"experimental.pixelShaderPath"`,
which lets the user set a pixel shader to use with the Terminal.
- CHANGED FROM #7058: It does _not_ add any built-in shaders.
- CHANGED FROM #7058: it will _override_
`experimental.retroTerminalEffect`
* It adds a bunch of sample shaders in `samples/shaders`. Included:
- A NOP shader as a base to build from.
- An "invert" shader that inverts the colors, as a simple example
- An "grayscale" shader that converts all colors to grayscale, as a
simple example
- An "raster bars" shader that draws some colored bars on the screen
with a drop shadow, as a more involved example
- The original retro terminal effects, as a more involved example
- It also includes a broken shader, as an example of what heppens
when the shader fails to compile
- CHANGED FROM #7058: It does _not_ add the "retroII" shader we were
all worried about.
* When a shader fails to be found or fails to compile, we'll display an
error dialog to the user with a relevant error message.
- CHANGED FROM #7058: Originally, #7058 would display "error bars"
on the screen. I've removed that, and had the Terminal disable the
shader entirely then.
* Renames the `toggleRetroEffect` action to `toggleShaderEffect`.
(`toggleRetroEffect` is now an alias to `toggleShaderEffect`). This
action will turn the shader OR the retro effects on/off.
`toggleShaderEffect` works the way you'd expect it to, but the mental
math on _how_ is a little weird. The logic is basically:
```
useShader = shaderEffectsEnabled ?
(pixelShaderProvided ?
pixelShader :
(retroEffectEnabled ?
retroEffect : null
)
) :
null
```
and `toggleShaderEffect` toggles `shaderEffectsEnabled`.
* If you've got both a shader and retro enabled, `toggleShaderEffect`
will toggle between the shader on/off.
* If you've got a shader and retro disabled, `toggleShaderEffect` will
toggle between the shader on/off.

This PR defines a series of `NOSOMETHING` macros in PCHs, in order to
prevent `windows.h` from bringing a lot of rarely used things into the
project.
Theoretically this should make PCH generation and overall complication
faster, but I didn't really benchmark the speed.
Another benefit would be reducing the symbol noises caused by
`windows.h`.
This PR improves the clipboard handling logic of "drag and drop" in
TermControl, making it more useful and less likely to crash.
* Added support for two more categories of content, `ApplicationLink`
and `WebLink`.
* Reordered the ifs, making `StorageItem` the last clause. With WT being
a text-oriented application, I think we can safely assume that the
content being pasted is likely to be text/links.
* Catch possible exceptions during
`e.DataView().GetStorageItemsAsync()`.
Closes#7804
Many include statements use forward slashes, while others use backwards
slashes. This is inconsistent formatting. For this reason, I changed the
backward slashes to forward slashes since that is the standard.
This commit implements the OSC 9;4 sequence per the [ConEmu style].
| sequence | description |
| ------------ | ------------ |
| `ESC ] 9 ; 4 ; st ; pr ST` | Set progress state on taskbar and tab. |
| | When `st` is: |
| | |
| | `0`: remove progress. |
| | `1`: set progress value to `pr` (number, 0-100). |
| | `2`: set the taskbar to the "Error" state |
| | `3`: set the taskbar to the "Indeterminate" state |
| | `4`: set the taskbar to the "Warning" state |
We've also extended this with:
* st 3: set indeterminate state
* st 4: set paused state
We handle multiple tabs sending the sequence by using the the last focused
control's taskbar state/progress.
Upon receiving the sequence in `TerminalApi`, we send an event that gets caught
by `TerminalPage`. `TerminalPage` then fires another event that gets caught by
`AppHost` and that's where we set the taskbar progress.

## PR Checklist

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
In `TermControl`, `_HyperlinkHandler` is called by
`_PointerPressedHandler` which has taken a write lock for all its
friends. However, `_HyperlinkHandler` downstreams to `ShellExecute`
which can pump the message queue looking for something. That pumping of
the queue can trigger messages that also want the write lock to update
state. They get stuck. Everything hangs.
`_HyperlinkHandler` really only needs read lock and really only for as
long as it takes to fill up its parameters before it's invoked... but
the simpler and more contained solution is to just fire and forget the
rest of the method that causes the deadlock to a continuation at the
tail of the dispatcher queue so `_PointerPressedHandler` can complete
and naturally drop the write lock.

Overall design:
- Upon startup, TerminalCore gives the TextBuffer some patterns it
should know about
- Whenever something in the viewport changes (i.e. text
output/scrolling), TerminalControl tells TerminalCore (through a
throttled function for performance) to retrieve the visible pattern
locations from the TextBuffer
- When the renderer encounters a region that is associated with a
pattern, it paints that region differently

This commit fixes our longstanding build artifact output issues and
finally unifies all C++ project output into bin/ and obj/.
In light of that, I've removed NoOutputRedirection.
I've also updated WTU and U8U16Test to use our common build props and
fixed any warnings/compilation errors that popped out.
I validated this change by running repeated incremental builds after
changing individual .cpp files in many of our C++/WinRT projects.
Let's assume the user has bound the dead key ^ to a sendInput command
that sends "b". If the user presses the two keys ^a it'll produce "bâ",
despite us marking the key event as handled. We can use `ToUnicodeEx`
to clear such dead keys from the keyboard state and should make use of
that for keybindings. Unfortunately `SetKeyboardState` cannot be used
for this purpose as it doesn't clear the dead key state.
Validation
* Enabled a German keyboard layout
* Added the following two keybindings:
{ "command": { "action": "sendInput", "input": "x" }, "keys": "q" },
{ "command": { "action": "sendInput", "input": "b" }, "keys": "^" }
* Pressed the following keys → ensured that the given text is printed:
* q → x
* ´ → nothing
* a → á
* ^ → b
* a → a (previously this would print: â)
* ´ → nothing
* ^ → b
* a → a (unfortunately we cannot specifically clear only ^)

This pull request introduces (a very, very stripped-down copy of) the
WIL fallback error reporter.
It emits error records, usually immediately before the application
implodes, into the event stream.
This should improve diagnosability of issues that take Terminal down,
and allow us to give out a .wprp file to gather traces from users.
This commit makes the Windows Terminal play an audible sound when the
`BEL` control character is output.
The `BEL` control was already being forwarded through conpty, so it was
just a matter of hooking up the `WarningBell` dispatch method to
actually play a sound. I've used the `PlaySound` API to output the sound
configured for the "Critical Stop" system event (aka _SystemHand_),
since that is the sound used in conhost.
## Validation
I've manually confirmed that the terminal produces the expected sound
when executing `echo ^G` in a cmd shell, or `printf "\a"` in a WSL bash
shell.
References:
* There is a separate issue (#1608) to deal with configuring the `BEL`
to trigger visual forms of notification.
* There is also an issue (#2360) requesting an option to disable the
`BEL`.
Closes#4046
This PR adds support for the _blink_ graphic rendition attribute. When a
character is output with this attribute set, it "blinks" at a regular
interval, by cycling its color between the normal rendition and a dimmer
shade of that color.
The majority of the blinking mechanism is encapsulated in a new
`BlinkingState` class, which is shared between the Terminal and Conhost
implementations. This class keeps track of the position in the blinking
cycle, which determines whether characters are rendered as normal or
faint.
In Windows Terminal, the state is stored in the `Terminal` class, and in
Conhost it's stored in the `CONSOLE_INFORMATION` class. In both cases,
the `IsBlinkingFaint` method is used to determine the current blinking
rendition, and that is passed on as a parameter to the
`TextAttribute::CalculateRgbColors` method when these classes are
looking up attribute colors.
Prior to calculating the colors, the current attribute is also passed to
the `RecordBlinkingUsage` method, which keeps track of whether there are
actually any blink attributes in use. This is used to determine whether
the screen needs to be refreshed when the blinking cycle toggles between
the normal and faint renditions.
The refresh itself is handled by the `ToggleBlinkingRendition` method,
which is triggered by a timer. In Conhost this is just piggybacking on
the existing cursor blink timer, but in Windows Terminal it needs to
have its own separate timer, since the cursor timer is reset whenever a
key is pressed, which is not something we want for attribute blinking.
Although the `ToggleBlinkingRendition` is called at the same rate as the
cursor blinking, we actually only want the cells to blink at half that
frequency. We thus have a counter that cycles through four phases, and
blinking is rendered as faint for two of those four. Then every two
cycles - when the state changes - a redraw is triggered, but only if
there are actually blinking attributes in use (as previously recorded).
As mentioned earlier, the blinking frequency is based on the cursor
blink rate, so that means it'll automatically be disabled if a user has
set their cursor blink rate to none. It can also be disabled by turning
off the _Show animations in Windows_ option. In Conhost these settings
take effect immediately, but in Windows Terminal they only apply when a
new tab is opened.
This PR also adds partial support for the `SGR 6` _rapid blink_
attribute. This is not used by DEC terminals, but was defined in the
ECMA/ANSI standards. It's not widely supported, but many terminals just
it implement it as an alias for the regular `SGR 5` blink attribute, so
that's what I've done here too.
## Validation Steps Performed
I've checked the _Graphic rendition test pattern_ in Vttest, and
compared our representation of the blink attribute to that of an actual
DEC VT220 terminal as seen on [YouTube]. With the right color scheme
it's a reasonably close match.

- Render hyperlinks with a dashed underline
- Render hovered hyperlinks with a solid underline
- Show URI tooltip on hover
TermControl now has a canvas that contains a tiny border to which a
tooltip is attached. When we hover over hyperlinked text, we move the
border to the mouse location and update the tooltip content with the
URI.
Introduced a new underline type (HyperlinkUnderline), supports rendering
for it, and uses it to render hyperlinks. HyperlinkUnderline is usually
a dashed underline, but when a link is hovered, all text with the same
hyperlink ID is rendered with a solid underline.

Adds array support for the existing `copyFormatting` global setting.
This allows users to define which formats they would specifically like
to be copied.
A boolean value is still accepted and is translated to the following:
- `false` --> `"none"` or `[]`
- `true` --> `"all"` or `["html", "rtf"]`
This also adds `copyFormatting` as a keybinding arg for `copy`. As with
the global setting, a boolean value and array value is accepted.
CopyFormat is a WinRT enum where each accepted format is a flag.
Currently accepted formats include `html`, and `rtf`. A boolean value is
accepted and converted. `true` is a conjunction of all the formats.
`false` only includes plain text.
For the global setting, `null` is not accepted. We already have a
default value from before so no worries there.
For the keybinding arg, `null` (the default value) means that we just do
what the global arg says to do. Overall, the `copyFormatting` keybinding
arg is an override of the global setting **when using that keybinding**.
References #5212 - Spec for formatted copying
References #2690 - disable html copy
Validated behavior with every combination of values below:
- `copyFormatting` global: { `true`, `false`, `[]`, `["html"]` }

Technically, the action is being done by changing the settings of the current `TerminalSettings` of the `TermControl`. Frankly, it should be operating on a copy of the `TermControl`'s `IControlSettings`, then updating the control's settings, or the Control should just listen for changes to it's setting's properties, and update in real time (without a manual call to `UpdateSettings`. However, both those paths are somewhere unknowable beyond #6904, so we'll just do this for now.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
One important part of this change concerns how panes are initialized at runtime. We've had some persistent trouble with initializing multiple panes, because they rely on knowing how big they'll actually be, to be able to determine if they can split again.
We previously worked around this by ignoring the size check when we were in "startup", processing an initial commandline. This PR however requires us to be able to know the initial size of a pane at runtime, but before the parents have necessarily been added to the tree, or had their renderer's set up.
This led to the development of `Pane::PreCalculateCanSplit`, which is very highly similar to `Pane::PreCalculateAutoSplit`. This method attempts to figure out how big a pane _will_ take, before the parent has necessarily laid out.
This also involves a small change to `TermControl`, because if its renderer hasn't been set up yet, it'll always think the font is `{0, fontHeight}`, which will let the Terminal keep splitting in the x direction. This change also makes the TermControl set up a renderer to get the real font size when it hasn't yet been initialized.
## Validation Steps Performed
This was what the json blob I was using for testing evolved into
```json

},
"keys": ["ctrl+shift+n"]
}
```
I also added some tests.

By default, the memory order on atomics is `seq_cst`. This is a relatively expensive ordering and it shows in situations where we're rapidly signaling a consumer to pick up something from a producer.

This parameter was added as a workaround for our fast trackpad
scrolling. Since that was fixed before 1.0 shipped, in #4554, it has
been largely vestigial. There is no reason for us to keep it around any
longer.
It was also the only "logic" in TerminalSettings, which is otherwise a
library that only transits data between two other libraries.
I have not removed it from the schema, as I do not want to mark folks'
settings files invalid to a strict schema parser.
While I was in the area, I added support for "scroll one screen at a
time" (which is represented by the API returning WHEEL_PAGESCROLL),
fixing #5610. We were also storing it in an int (whoops) instead of a
uint.
Fixes#5610
This PR enables `ApplicationHighContrastAdjustment::None`. Doing this
disables a set of mitigations in XAML designed to band-aid apps that
were never explicitly designed for High Contrast (HC) modes. Terminal
now has full control of and responsibility for its appearance in HC
mode. This allows Terminal to look a lot better.
On paper, we should be able to set `HighContrastAdjustment="None"` on
the `<Application>` element. But that doesn't have any effect. I don't
know if this is a bug in `<Toolkit:XamlApplication>` or somewhere else.
So instead I set the property in codebehind, which is not as ideal, but
does at least work. I'd love to a way to move this into App.xaml.
The Find box had a couple stray styles to override the ToggleButton's
foreground color. With backplating removed, these styles became
actively harmful (white foreground on highlight color background), so I
just removed them. The built-in style for ToggleButton is perfect
as-is.
Closes#5360
WinUI's `Margin` and `Padding` work very similarly. `Margin` distances
ourselves from our parent. Whereas `Padding` distances our children from
ourselves.
Terminal's `padding` setting is actually implemented by defining
`Margin` on the SwapChainPanel. This means that the "padding" that is
created is actually belongs to SwapChainPanel's parent: Grid (not to be
confused with its parent, "RootGrid").
When a user clicks on the padded area, input goes to Grid. But there's a
twist: you can't actually hit Grid. To be able to hit Grid, you can't
just set IsHitTestVisible. You need to set it's Visibility to Visible,
and it's Background to Transparent (not null) [2].
## Validation Steps Performed
- [X] Start a selection from the padding area
- [X] Click on a SearchBox if one is available
- The SearchBox gets first dibs on the hit test so none gets through
to the SwapChainPanel

With this commit, terminal will be able to copy text to the system
clipboard by using OSC 52 MANIPULATE SELECTION DAATA.
We chose not to implement the clipboard querying functionality offered
by OSC 52, as sending the clipboard text to an application without the
user's knowledge or consent is an immense security hole.
We do not currently support the clipboard specifier Pc to specify which
clipboard buffer should be filled
# Base64 encoded `foo`
$ echo -en "\e]52;;Zm9v\a"
# Multiple lines
# Base64 encoded `foo\r\nbar`
$ echo -en "\e]52;;Zm9vDQpiYXI=\a"
Closes#2946.
This pull request implements shift+double/triple click. Proper behavior
(as described in #4557) is to only expand one selection point, not both.
Adding the `bool targetStart` was a bit weird. I decided on this being
the cleanest approach though because I still want `PivotSelection` to be
its own helper function. Otherwise, the concept of "pivoting" gets kinda
messy.
## Validation Steps Performed
Manual testing as described on attached issue.
Tests were added for Shift+Click and pivoting the selection too.
Closes#4557
* Update _TerminalCursorPositionChanged to use ThrottledFunc.
* Rename previous ThrottledFunc to ThrottledArgFunc because now
ThrottledFunc is for functions that do not take an argument.
* Update ThrottledFunc and ThrottledArgFunc to accept a CoreDispatcher
on which the function should be called for convenience.
* Don't use coroutines/winrt::fire_and_forget in
ThrottledFunc/ThrottledArgFunc because they are too slow (see PR).
_AdjustCursorPosition went from 17% of samples to 3% in performance
testing.

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
- I found four settings that weren't hot reloadable with the 3927 comment above them:
1. Experimental retro terminal effect
2. Experimental software rendering
3. Experimental full repaint rendering
4. Antialiasing settings for text
I made them all hot reloadable by telling the `TermControl` to propagate them on settings change to the `DxEngine`.
Then I set up the `DxEngine` inside the setters to only set them if they changed. And if they do change, to trigger a full repaint and/or a complete drop and recreate of the entire DX device chain (as would happen if it were lost for another reason like a user-mode graphics failure, disconnected display, etc.)
I made the boolean an atomic because the settings can be coming in off of another thread (the XAML eventing one) and the renderer is picking the status up on its thread at the top of the BeginPaint frame.
## Validation Steps Performed
- [x] Opened it up and toggled all the settings while staring at PowerShell
- [x] Opened it up and toggled all the settings while staring at something intensive like a `cacafire` fire
## Summary of the Pull Request
This PR changes `TermControl::_KeyHandler` to use early returns, which you can think of as "guard clauses".
This has the benefit of a reduced nesting level, easier to understand control flow and opens op the way to more complex conditions.

Everything still works as expected.
## Summary of the Pull Request
Make sure to set the scancode for the manual alt-up's we're sending. If you don't, then terminalInput in the conpty is going to treat that keypress as an actual NUL, and send that to the connected client.

In addition to the below (original) description, this commit introduces
a ThrottledFunc template that can throttle _any_ function. It applies
that type to muffle updates to the scrollbar.
---
Redo #3531 but without the bug that it caused (#3622) which is why it
was reverted.
I'm sorry if I explain this badly. If you don't understand a part, make
sure to let me know and I will explain it better.
### Explanation
How it worked before: `Terminal` signals that viewport changed ->
`TermControl::_TerminalScrollPositionChanged` gets called on the
terminal thread -> it dispatches work for later to be ran the UI thread
to updates the scrollbar's values
Why it's bad:
* If we have many viewport changes, it will create a long stack of
operations to run. Instead, we should just update the scroll bar with
the most recent information that we know.
* Imagine if the rate that the work gets pushed on the UI thread is
greater than the rate that it can handle: it might freeze?
* No need to be real time, we can wait just a little bit (8ms) to
accumulate viewport changes before we actually change the scroll bar's
value because it appears to be expensive (see perf below).
Now: `Terminal` signals that viewport changed ->
`TermControl::_TerminalScrollPositionChanged` gets called on the
terminal thread -> it tells the `ScrollBarUpdater` about a new update ->
the `ScrollBarUpdater` only runs one job (I don't know if that's the
right term) on the UI thread at a time. If a job is already running but
hasn't updated the scroll bar yet, it changes the setting in the already
existing job to update the scroll bar with the new values. A job "waits"
some time before doing the update to throttle updates because we don't
need real time scroll bar updates. -> eventually, it updates the scroll
bar If the user scrolls when a scroll bar update is pending, we keep the
scroll bar's Maximum and Minimum but let the user choose its new Value
with the `CancelPendingValueChange` method.
### Note
Also I changed a little bit the code from the Terminal to notify the
TermControl less often when possible.
I tried to scroll with the scroll bar, with the mouse wheel. I tried to
scroll while content is being outputted.
I tried to reproduce the crash from #2248 without success (good).

Closes#3622
For mysterious reasons lost to the sands of time, XAML will _never_ pass
us a VK_MENU event. This is something that'll probably get fixed in
WinUI 3, but considering we're stuck on system XAML for the time being,
the only way to work around this bug is to pass the event through
manually. This change generalizes the F7 handler into a "direct key
event" handler that uses the same focus and tunneling method to send
different key events, and then uses it to send VK_MENU.
## Validation Steps Performed
Opened the debug tap, verified that I was seeing alt key ups.
Also used some alt keybindings to make sure I didn't break them.
Closes#6421
