Tags: patch

The attached patch adds support for OSC 2 escape sequences in comint buffers.

To test one can update `frame-title-format' with something like:

(setq frame-title-format
      '("%b"
	(:eval
	 (when (and
	      comint-osc-window-title
	      (not (string-empty-p comint-osc-window-title)))
	     (concat " - " comint-osc-window-title)))
	(:eval
	 (if multiple-frames
	     ""
	   (concat " - GNU Emacs at " system-name)))))

After M-x shell call a command (like flatpak-builder) that emits OSC 2
commands, the frame title is updated while the command runs.

Note that one is expected to extend Bash prompt command to print an OSC
2 command to clear the title:

set -x

osc_clear() {
  printf "\e]2;\e\\"
}

PROMPT_COMMAND=${PROMPT_COMMAND:+$PROMPT_COMMAND; }osc_clear

set +x
