• clipboard

  • by default st only sets PRIMARY on selection
  • this patch makes st set CLIPBOARD on selection

• font2

  • allows you to add a spare font besides the default

• hidecursor

  • hides the X cursor whenever a key is pressed and show it back when the mouse is moved in the terminal window

• hide-terminal-cursor

  • hides the terminal cursor when the window loses focus (as opposed to showing a hollow cursor)

• invert

  • adds a keybinding that lets you invert the current colorscheme of st
  • this provides a simple way to temporarily switch to a light colorscheme if you use a dark colorscheme or visa-versa

• iso14755

• ligatures

  • adds support for drawing ligatures using the Harfbuzz library to transform original text of a single line to a list of glyphs with ligatures included

• monochrome

  • makes st ignore terminal color attributes to make for a monochrome look

• newterm

  • allows you to spawn a new st terminal using Ctrl-Shift-Return
  • it will have the same CWD (current working directory) as the original st instance

• reflow

  • allows st to be resized without cutting off text when the terminal window is made larger again
  • text wraps when the terminal window is made smaller

• right-click-to-plumb

  • allows you to right-click on some selected text to send it to the plumbing program of choice

• scrollback

  • allows you scroll back through terminal output using keyboard shortcuts or mousewheel

• vertcenter

  • vertically center lines in the space available if you have set a larger chscale in config.h
