Two ANSI bugs, both found by running fastfetch rather than by reading the
parser, and both invisible to anything that spells its escapes out in full.
ESC[m with no parameters means ESC[0m. ECMA-48 is explicit that an omitted
parameter takes its default and SGR's default is 0, and sgr() iterated its
parameter list -- which is empty in exactly that case, so the loop body never
ran and the reset was silently dropped.
Programs emit the bare form constantly. fastfetch writes "\x1b[32m1%\x1b[m", so
everything after the first coloured character stayed green forever. With a
background colour it is much worse: its palette swatch sets a white background
and resets, the reset did nothing, and the console went white-on-white and
stayed there -- filling the screen with white rectangles as it scrolled, which
looks like a corrupted framebuffer rather than one missing branch.
OSC sequences were not a state at all, so ESC ] fell through and the payload
printed as text: a hyperlinked path arrived as "Disk (]8;;file:///\]8;;\)".
Nothing here acts on an operating-system command -- there is no window title and
no hyperlink to follow -- but *discarding* one is not optional, because the
alternative is printing somebody's URL into the middle of their output. ESC \
ends it, and an ESC followed by anything else is handed back to the escape state
rather than eaten, so a malformed OSC does not swallow the sequence after it.
Verified by screendumping the framebuffer after two consecutive fastfetch runs:
identical output both times, near-white coverage down from most of the screen to
2% (the palette swatch's own white cell), and the disk line reading "Disk (/)".
Also installs docs/branding/Ascii/ascii_50.txt as /usr/share/schos/logo.txt --
Shift as characters, at the width that leaves room for an info block on an
80-column console. Installed from the branding directory rather than copied into
sysroot by hand, so there is one source.
