Modified suckless tabbed for alacritty.

Original README below.

About

This is pretty much the original tabbed utility but patched and fixed because some patches are a bit old.

Upstream is here:

git clone https://git.suckless.org/tabbed

Patches

  • alpha
    • adds transparency support
    • the orginal patch did not account for an update in config.mk.
    • the original patch direction for st is wrong.
  • autohide
    • hides tab bar when there is only one tab.
  • clientnumber
    • shows the tab number because you're definitely not going to count them yourself.
  • xft
    • adds UTF8 support.

alpha

To get st working with alpha, do the change noted on the page but at x.c instead of st.c.

Quoting the page: If you want to use transparency in st with this patch, you also need to replace

define USE_ARGB (alpha != OPAQUE && opt_embed == NULL)

by

define USE_ARGB (alpha != OPAQUE)

Below is the original README:

# Usage

`sudo make install`.

Try `man tabbed`.
tl;dr: you can try `tabbed st -w` `tabbed -r 2 st -w '' -n "helloworld"` and stuff like that.
