Luke's build of st - the simple (suckless) terminal
Forked from https://github.com/shiva/st for simplicity's sake, which is the suckless terminal (st) with some patches added:
- copy to clipboard
- solarized colors (light and dark toggleable)
- vertcenter
- scrollback with keyboard
- scrollback with mouse
My own additions
- Default font is system "mono" at 14pt
- Fixed transparency patch (see below for installation)
- Toggle light/dark mode now Alt-Tab instead of the frequently conflicting F6
- Alt-k and Alt-j scroll back/foward in history one line at a time
- Alt-u and Alt-d scroll back/foward in history a page at a time
Terminal-specific mappings
(Additions before me.)
- Scroll through history -- Shift+PageUp/PageDown or Shift+Mouse wheel
- Increase/decrease font size -- Shift+Alt+PageUp/PageDown
- Return to default font size -- Shift+Alt+Home
- Paste -- Shift+Insert
Installation for newbs
make
sudo make install
Transparency
If you want transparency, run the following. (You will also need to have a composite manager, such as compton or xcompmgr running for the transparency to appear.)
make clean
patch < patches/transparency.diff
make
sudo make install
And to remove transparency, just unapply the diff patch and reinstall.
make clean
patch -R < patches/transparency.diff
make
sudo make install
You can change the transparency value by changing the alpha variable in the config.h file.
