# My st (simple terminal) build

st is a simple terminal emulator for X which sucks less (st is created by the [suckless](https://suckless.org) team). This is my personal build of st, based on DistroTube's build. I used some patches in this build to make st more like myself. The patches I added to this build include:
+ alpha (for transparency)
+ font2 (to allow setting more than one font, useful when the default font has missing glyphs)
+ scrollback (scrollback through terminal using Shift+PageUp/PageDown.)
+ scrollback mouse altscreen (allows scrolling using Shift+MouseWheel.)
# How to install st-bruno?
Download the source code from this repository or, preferably, use a git clone:
git clone https://github.com/brunomontezano/st-bruno
cd st-bruno
sudo make clean install
NOTE: Installing st-bruno will overwrite your existing st installation so make a backup of your current config if you need.
Also, be sure to have a composite manager (`xcompmgr`, `picom`, `compton`, etc.) running if you want transparency, and the `mononoki Nerd Font` to properly render stuff.
# Small Note on Emojis and Special Characters
If st crashes when viewing emojis, install [libxft-bgra](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libxft-bgra/) or [libxft-bgra-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libxft-bgra-git/) from the AUR.
Note that some special characters may appear truncated if too wide. You might want to manually set your emoji/special character font to a lower size in the `config.h` file to avoid this.
