Remove VT color quirk for PowerShell (#17666)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Roughly 4 years ago we gave Windows Terminal the ability to
differentiate between black/white and the default colors.
One of the victims was PowerShell and most importantly PSReadLine,
which emit SRG 37 & 40 when what they really want is 38 & 48.
We fixed this on our side by adding a shim.

Since the addition of VT passthrough in #17510 we now intentionally
lost the ability to translate VT sequences from one thing to another.
This meant we also lost the ability to do this shim and as such
this PR removes it. Luckily Windows 11 now ships PSReadLine 2.0.0,
which contains a proper fix for this.

Unfortunately, this is not the case for Windows 10, which ships
PSReadLine 2.0.0-beta2. Users affected by this will have to install
a newer version of PSReadLine or use the default black/white theme.

See 1bf4c08

Closes #13037

// Routine Description:
// Pursuant to GH#6807
// This routine replaces VT colors from the 16-color set with the "default"
// flag. It is intended to be used as part of the "VT Quirk" in
// WriteConsole[AW].
//
// There is going to be a very long tail of applications that will
// explicitly request VT SGR 40/37 when what they really want is to
// SetConsoleTextAttribute() with a black background/white foreground.
// Instead of making those applications look bad (and therefore making us
// look bad, because we're releasing this as an update to something that
// "looks good" already), we're introducing this compatibility hack. Before
// the color reckoning in GH#6698 + GH#6506, *every* color was subject to
// being spontaneously and erroneously turned into the default color. Now,
// only the 16-color palette value that matches the active console
// background color will be destroyed when the quirk is enabled.
//
// This is not intended to be a long-term solution. This comment will be
// discovered in forty years(*) time and people will laugh at our hubris.
//
// *it doesn't matter when you're reading this, it will always be 40 years
// from now.
