# 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 additional features:
|
|
|
|
+ Adjustable transparency/alpha
|
|
+ Compatibility with `Xresources` and `pywal` for dynamic colors
|
|
+ Copy to clipboard (alt-shift-c)
|
|
+ Default font is system "mono" at 14pt, meaning the font will match your system font.
|
|
+ Hold alt and press either ↑/↓ or the vim keys k/j to move up/down in the terminal.
|
|
+ Shift+Mouse wheel will as well.
|
|
+ Alt-u and Alt-d scroll back/forward in history a page at a time.
|
|
+ Alt-PageUp and Alt-PageDown will do the same.
|
|
+ Zoom in/out with Alt+Shift+k/j or u/d for larger intervals.
|
|
+ Vertcenter
|
|
+ Optional solarized colors (light and dark toggleable)
|
|
+ updated to latest version 0.8.1
|
|
|
|
The following additional bindings were added before I forked this:
|
|
|
|
+ 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
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Obviously, `make` is required to build. `fontconfig` is required for the default build, since it asks `fontconfig` for your system monospace font. It might be obvious, but `libX11` and `libXft` are required as well. Chances are, you have all of this installed already.
|
|
|
|
## Custom changes (`config.def.h` or `config.h`)
|
|
|
|
Now by default, the terminal is transparent and uses an Xresources patch that
|
|
looks for your Xresources colors for the colors of st. You can disable the
|
|
Xresources patch by reversing it as below:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
patch -R < xresources.patch
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On top of that, you can disable alpha and enable fully solarized colors by
|
|
running the following:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
patch < solarized-alpha-toggle.patch
|
|
```
