My st terminal build
55087ec2c7
The commit 'Fixing some key issues with mc' fix the problem where mc didn't recognize home key because the generated code and the terminfo entry were different (terminfo khome = \E[1~ but generates \033[H). Home key in ansi mode should generate the sequence CUP (\033[H) to 0,0 (home position), but it is also interesting generate a application code which identifies the key. Real vt520 only generates the ansi sequence CUP, linux console generates only the application code \033[1~, xterm generates CUP in ansi mode and \033OH in cursor application mode, rxvt only generates the application code \033[7~. This patch sets CUP in ansi mode and \033[1~ in cursor application mode, so it can be used in both modes and the application mode value is similar to near values (insert = \033[2~, Prior = \033[5~, Next = \033[6~, End = \033[4~, Supr = \033[3). --- config.def.h | 7 ++++--- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) |

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.
