st

This is my patched version of st. The base version is directly from suckless.org. This belongs to my larbs installation script, but does not directly depend on it. It is supposed to work in the environment after the larbs-base-installation.

Patches

The list below shows the currently applied patches to the master branch.

• st-alpha-0.8.2.diff (adds transparency)
• st-anysize-0.8.1.diff (st leaves no gaps if the height/width doesn't match a multiple of character height)
• st-font2-20190416-ba72400.diff (allows to set multiple spare fonts as fallback)
• st-scrollback-0.8.2.diff (add scrollback functionality)
