st

This is a fork of a fork of the excellent st terminal patched with a patch of a patch.

This repository constitutes my personal configuration of st.

Changes From the Default:

• All scrollback patches have been applied.
• The externalpipe patch has been applied and patched
  • When the integer argument is greater than zero st reads a char from the stdin
  • You can now pass a parametric argument to externalpipe to be set to the read char
  • The parametric argument must be indicated by the integer argument
• The colorscheme has been set to gruvbox.
• Experimental support for sixel graphics has been added. There are several known issues:
  • Entering clear causes all sixels to be deleted from scrollback.
  • Rendering sixel graphics may cause unusual cursor placement, this is not specific to this variant of st - the same issue is present in the xterm implementation. This is likely an issue of sixel height not being detected correctly.
• Preliminary support for some additional control sequences has been added, namely OSC 11 and 10 with more planned.
• CSI S and T escape behavior has been modified to fix a bug where S or T escapes would sometimes cause lines to be deleted from the scrollback buffer.

known-problems

• There is a bug in libxft when rendering colored emojis, in arch install the patched version libxft-bgra from AUR

Sixel-graphics related code was taken from this diff https://gist.github.com/saitoha/70e0fdf22e3e8f63ce937c7f7da71809 and modified. This looks like it has some GPL licensed code in it, so you should probably consider my fork to be GPL also.
