• Alpha : This patch allows users to change the opacity of the background. Note that you need an X composite manager (e.g. compton, xcompmgr) to make this patch effective.
• Clipboard : This trivial patch sets CLIPBOARD on selection.
• font2 : This patch allows to add spare font besides default.
• Wide glyph : This patch allows to display the full glyph instead of it being cut off. See also here

The colorscheme patch is a custom patch, it is not the ones from colorscheme It is solarized.dark exported from https://terminal.sexy with a different bg and fg color. Also the defaultfg, defaultbg and defaultcs are not statics, otherwise it won't compile.

• Fix Keyboard Input : Add a few previously undefined keys. Removed as this was used for additional keys for zooming.

In order to build st you need the Xlib header files.

Edit config.mk to match your local setup (st is installed into the /usr/local namespace by default).

Afterwards enter the following command to build and install st (if necessary as root):

make clean install

Start st from a launcher like dmenu or rofi.

If you did not install st with make clean install, you must compile the st terminfo entry with the following command:

tic -sx st.info

See the man page for additional details.
