Question

Allow setting cursor blink for Terminal

Gaming32 opened this issue 9 months ago · 3 comments

The cursor blink can be configured for the terminal emulator by setting its device configuration on creation. However, it would be nice if this could be done for non-emulated terminals as well. xterm supports ?25l to disable blinking and ?25h to enable blinking. This is also supported on Windows's terminal when terminal emulation is enabled.

I was able to fulfill my use case for now by manually writing the appropriate escape sequences to the console.

Yes, we should add that if it's part of the ANSI standard

I'm not sure if it's part of the ANSI standard, but it is in xterm. Both Windows Command Prompt and GNOME Terminal work with it.
