The suckless terminal (st) with some additional features that make it literally the best terminal emulator ever:

• follow urls by pressing alt-l
• copy urls in the same way with alt-y
• copy the output of commands with alt-o

• scroll with alt-↑/↓ or alt-pageup/down or shift while scrolling the mouse (via scroll).
• OR vim-bindings: scroll up/down in history with alt-k and alt-j. Faster with alt-u/alt-d.
• zoom/change font size: same bindings as above, but holding down shift as well. alt-home returns to default
• copy text with alt-c, paste is alt-v or shift-insert

• Compatibility with Xresources and pywal for dynamic colors.
• Default gruvbox colors otherwise.
• Transparency/alpha, which is also adjustable from your Xresources.

• Boxdraw
• Ligatures
• font2
• updated to latest version 0.8.4

You should have xlib header files and libharfbuzz build files installed.

git clone https://github.com/rxt01/st
cd st
sudo make install

Note that scroll is automatically pulled and installed when you make this build of st.

Obviously, make is required to build.It might be obvious, but libX11 and libXft` are required as well. Chances are, you have all of this installed already.

sudo make install-font

On OpenBSD, be sure to edit config.mk first and remove -lrt from the $LIBS before compiling.

Be sure to have a composite manager (xcompmgr, picom, etc.) running if you want transparency.

For many key variables, this build of st will look for X settings set in either ~/.Xdefaults or ~/.Xresources. You must run xrdb on one of these files to load the settings.

For example, you can define your desired fonts, transparency or colors:

*.font:	Liberation Mono:pixelsize=12:antialias=true:autohint=true;
*.alpha: 0.9
*.color0: #111
...

The alpha value (for transparency) goes from 0 (transparent) to 1 (opaque). There is an example Xdefaults file in this respository.

To be clear about the color settings:

• This build will use gruvbox colors by default and as a fallback.
• If there are Xresources colors defined, those will take priority.
• But if wal has run in your session, its colors will take priority.

Note that when you run wal, it will negate the transparency of existing windows, but new windows will continue with the previously defined transparency.
