Sure thing, I've merged your patch and mine to support OSC 10/12/52.

If you are in that part of the code anyway, can you also fix the sequence for auto-detecting light/dark themes? I can attach a patch for that although not compatible with the already posted one.

Hello!

The OSC 52 escape sequence allows for programs to write to the OS's clipboard, which e.g. makes it possible to copy text programmatically, and/or from a remote session without having to use the mouse.

Screen sorts of supports this when wrapping the OSC 52 sequence in DCS markers, e.g. like this:
printf "\033P\033]52;c;$(printf "%s" "test" | base64)\a\033\\"

However, this doesn't work in nested screens.

The included patch adds OSC 52 support to screen itself, so the DCS markers are no longer necessary. (They continue to work just fine, though.)

Best regards,

Nieko Maatjes
