Description Maxim 2024-06-21 16:14:54 UTC
SUMMARY
Konsole already supports OSC 10 and 11 (text fg/bg colors) but doesn't support OSC 110 and 111 (reset for fg/bg colors), and OSC 12 and 112 (text cursor color and reset).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. run the command: printf '\e]12;red\a'

OBSERVED RESULT
Cursor color doesn't change with any Appearence>Cursor settings, unlike in xterm or libvte-based terminals (gnome-terminal, xfce4-terminal, terminator).

EXPECTED RESULT
The cursor color changes the same way as in xterm and libvte.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: EndeavourOS
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0
Qt Version: 6.7.1

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
My use case is I want to change neovim cursor color depending on the mode. I don't care about OSC 110 and 111 support, but this seems adjacent enough to include it in this issue.

The closest thing I found to the documentation is the "XTerm Control Sequences" pdf file: https://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs/ctlseqs.pdf, pages 34-36.
