Roberto E. Vargas Caballero 44597b359e Add control and meta combinations for arrow keys Since there isn't any terminfo capability for control and meta modifiers for arrows keys it is necessary use the same that almost terminal emulators use, because there are a lot of programs which have these codes hardcoded. This cause also that shift combinations are also changed, but in this case this is not a problem since there are terminfo capabilities for them. After this patch shift-up and shift-down continue not working in emacs with TERM=st, but they work with TERM=xterm, so it is possible some other changes are necessary in the terminfo entry. --- config.def.h \| 16 ++++++++++++---- st.info \| 8 ++++---- 2 files changed, 16 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-)		2012-11-13 20:04:54 +01:00

st - simple terminal
--------------------
st is a simple virtual terminal emulator for X which sucks less.


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


Installation
------------
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


Running st
----------
If you don't install st, define TNAME to "xterm" in config.h or make sure to at
least compile st terminfo entry with the following command:

    tic -s st.info

It should print the path of the compiled terminfo entry. You can
safely remove it if you don't plan to use st anymore.
See the man page for additional details.
