Here are the highlights for xterm (patches #166 to #173):

bug fixes:

     + fix two infinite loops (special cases of mouse hilite tracking, DECUDK
       parsing).

     + make repainting of 256-color example work properly

     + modify parser tables to improve detection of malformed control
       sequences, making xterm behave more like a real DEC terminal.

     + fix a problem with blinking cursor which occasionally caused xterm to
       pause until a key was pressed.

     + fix improper parsing of multiple items in ttyModes resource.

improvements:

     + modify xterm to invoke luit.

     + add simple session management client capabilities to xterm.

     + add modifyCursorKeys resource to control how the shift- and similar
       modifiers are used to make a cursor escape sequence.

     + check if printerCommand resource string is empty, use this to allow user
       to disable printer function.

     + sort options list which is displayed in help- and syntax-messages at
       runtime to simplify maintenance.
