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:

  • transparency
  • copy to clipboard
  • Solarized colors (light and dark toggleable) (Change to your own colors, see no value of toggle)
  • vertcenter
  • scrollback with keyboard
  • scrollback with mouse
  • updated to latest version 0.8.1

My own additions

  • Default font is system "mono" at 14pt
  • 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
  • Applied colors, insipred by Pop! OS colors.

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
