Original Pull Request: https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/pull/6309

State: closed
Merged: Yes

Adds support for win32-input-mode to conhost, conpty, and the Windows
Terminal.

  • The shared terminalInput class supports sending these sequences when
    a VT client application requests this mode.
  • ConPTY supports synthesizing INPUT_RECORDs from the input sent to it
    from a terminal
  • ConPTY requests this mode immediately on startup (if started with a
    new flag, PSEUDOCONSOLE_WIN32_INPUT_MODE)
  • The Terminal now supports sending this input as well, when conpty asks
    for it.

Also adds a new ConPTY flag PSEUDOCONSOLE_WIN32_INPUT_MODE which
requests this functionality from conpty, and the Terminal requests this
by default.

Also adds experimental.input.forceVT as a global setting to let a user
opt-out of this behavior, if they don't want it / this ends up breaking
horribly.
