st's Introduction

st (Simple Terminal)

This is a custom suckless st build (credits to lukesmith's build for ligatures patch) and I've added some additional patches like newterm , rightclick paste , desktop entry ,sixel, live-reload xresources , dynamic cursor etc!.

Patches:

  • alpha
  • Ligatures
  • sixel
  • scrollback
  • Clipboard
  • Alpha(Transparency)
  • Boxdraw
  • w3m
  • font2
  • right click paste
  • st desktop entry
  • newterm
  • anysize
  • anygeometry
  • xresources
  • sync patch ( Better draw timing to reduce flicker/tearing and improve animation smoothness )
  • live reload ( change colors/fonts on the fly ) and more...

How to apply Xresources and live-reload ?

 #make an alias for this command

alias load="kill -USR1 $(pidof st)"
alias  use="xrdb merge"

command : use Xresourcesfile && load

Xresources live-reload demo



DON'T SKIP THE README, if you want to have a similar setup / know default keybinds.

Dependencies :


#void (most of these are already installed on arch distros)
xbps-install libXft-devel libX11-devel harfbuzz-devel libXext-devel libXrender-devel libXinerama-devel ttf-jetbrains-mono
 

#Debian (and ubuntu probably)
apt install build-essential libxft-dev libharfbuzz-dev fonts-jetbrains-mono

Install

cd st (this repo)
sudo make install

other ST builds

  1. Default ST (main branch)
  2. Sixel St (sixel branch , with sixel graphics support)
  3. St with vim-browse (vim-browse branch , navigate within like vim)
  • Use a different st build ( clone its branch)
