st is a simple terminal emulator for X which sucks less.
This is my build of st, with the following patches:
- alpha
- anysize
- bold-is-not-bright
- boxdraw
- colorschemes
- scrollback
- scrollback-mouse
- scrollback-mouse-altscreen
- scrollback-reflow
- Beyond Zork font (this is a patch I created for my own use :) This allows me to play Beyond Zork within the terminal, with the character graphics font 3, with any terminal font that I want to use. See below for a screenshot of the Beyond Zork font in use -- the map and line around the window use this font. I used the boxdraw patch as inspiration when I created this patch.
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.
