This is a fork of suckless terminal with some patches applied.
None of the main patches are my own code; see each patch's page for author information.
- anysize
- scrollback
- visualbell2 (enhanced version)
It also has my config header file checked in, which has a few basic changes:
- DejaVu Sans Mono font at 18 pixels
- "Tango dark" colour palette
Dependencies needed on Ubuntu to build:
apt install build-essential libxft-dev
To render colour emoji without crashing, libxft needs to be at at least version 2.3.5. I installed Ubuntu 23.04's version (and the associated dev package) on Ubuntu 22.04 and it seems to be happy.
Original readme follows:
st is a simple terminal emulator for X which sucks less.
In order to build st you need the Xlib header files.
Edit config.mk to match your local setup (st is installed into the /usr/local namespace by default).
Afterwards enter the following command to build and install st (if necessary as root):
make clean install
If you did not install st with make clean install, you must compile the st terminfo entry with the following command:
tic -sx st.info
See the man page for additional details.
