Update TROR standard to include terminal palettes #66

Closed SquidDev closed 6 years ago

SquidDev commented 7 years ago

This defines three new codes:

TM: Sets a single palette's colour.
TN: Requests a palette's colour from the client.
TO: Carries a palette's colour to the server in response to TM.

Also adds an optional palette field to the TT packet.

Is it necessary to have both TM and TO, since they're identical in terms of structure?

SquidDev commented 7 years ago

@apemanzilla Technically no, but the standard generally uses packets for exactly one thing - the cursor position set/request/response packets work similarly.

I realise the TT extension does not include support for palettes. Any suggestions on how this should be implemented? The simplest would be for the client to reset to the default palettes should they be missing.
