st is a simple terminal emulator for X which sucks less. This is my patched version of st which includes these features:

• Mouse/keyboard scrollback
• Transparency and theme control using Xresources
• Dynamic cursor colour and blinking cursor
• Image preview with w3m support
• Multiple font support, coloured emojis

Xlib header files, libxft-bgra and dmenu

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):

1. make clean install
2. Symlink st-copyout and st-urlhandler scripts to somewhere in the $PATH or just copy them

• follow urls by pressing alt-l
• copy urls in the same way with alt-y
• copy the output of commands with alt-o
• copy selected text to clipboard with Alt+C
• Paste with Shitf+Insert or Alt+V
• Increase or decrease font with Ctrl+ and Ctrl-
• Scrollback with Alt+j and Alt+k or using mousewheel

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.
