NAME
       st - simple terminal

SYNOPSIS
       st [-a] [-c class] [-f font] [-g geometry] [-i] [-o file] [-t title]
       [-l line] [-w windowid] [-v] [-e command...] [commands...]

       st [-a] [-c class] [-f font] [-g geometry] [-i] [-o file] [-t title]
       [-l line] [-w windowid] [-v] [-l line] [stty_args...]

DESCRIPTION
       st is a simple terminal emulator.

OPTIONS
       -a     disable alternate screens in terminal

       -c class
              defines the window class (default $TERM).

       -f font
              defines the font to use when st is run.

       -g geometry
              defines the X11 geometry string.  The form is
              [=][<cols>{xX}<rows>][{+-}<xoffset>{+-}<yoffset>]. See
              XParseGeometry(3) for further details.

       -i     will fixate the position given with the -g option.

       -o iofile
              writes all the I/O to iofile.  This feature is useful when
              recording st sessions. A value of "-" means standard output.

       -t title
              defines the window title (default 'st').

       -w windowid
              embeds st within the window identified by windowid

       -l line
              use a tty line instead of a pseudo terminal.  When this flag is
              used remaining arguments are used as flags for stty.

       -v     prints version information to stderr, then exits.

       -e program [ arguments ... ]
              st executes program instead of the shell.  If this is used it
              must be the last option on the command line, as in xterm / rxvt.
              This option is only intended for compability, and all the
              remaining arguments are used as a command even without it.

SHORTCUTS
       Ctrl-Print Screen
              Toggle if st should print to the iofile.

       Shift-Print Screen
              Print the full screen to the iofile.

       Print Screen
              Print the selection to the iofile.

       Alt-Shift-Page Up
              Increase font size.

       Alt-Shift-Page Down
              Decrease font size.

       Alt-Shift-Home
              Reset to default font size.

       Shift-Insert
              Paste from primary selection (middle mouse button).

       Alt-Shift-Insert
              Paste from clipboard selection.

       Alt-Shift-v
              Paste from the clipboard selection.

CUSTOMIZATION
       st can be customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling
       the source code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple.
