# Luke's build of st - the simple (suckless) terminal
|
|
|
|
Forked from [https://github.com/shiva/st](https://github.com/shiva/st) for simplicity's sake, which is the [suckless terminal (st)](https://st.suckless.org/) 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.
