Varco removes hidden characters from the tab title that a server sets, and bad terminal output from a server can no longer stop the app.

Requires Android 15 or later. It runs on all ABIs because the APK has no native code. Update from 0.2.0 in place: the signing key is the same.

Fixed

  • A terminal sequence that causes an error is dropped, and the session continues. Before, bad output from a server could stop the app and close all tabs.
  • A colour reset (OSC 104) changes only colours 0 to 255 and ignores a value that is not a number.
  • A rectangle attribute change (DECCARA, DECRARA) stays on the screen when margins are set.

Privacy and security

  • Varco removes control and format characters (bidi marks, zero-width characters) from the tab title that a server sets. A server cannot show a title that hides or reverses text. A title with only such characters shows no title.
  • Dialogs that show server text now remove all format characters. Before, they removed only bidi overrides and isolates.
