st - simple terminal

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

Patches

• onedark theme
• anysize - resize to any pixel size, makes the inner border size dynamic
• appsync - better draw timing to reduce flicker/tearing and improve animation smoothness
• boxdraw - proper rendering of lines/blocks/braille characters for gapless alignment
• column - when shrinking the width of the window, invisible content is kept instead of removed, such that it becomes visible when the width is increased again
• externalpipe - reading and writing st's screen through a pipe - extracting all visible URLs and present dmenu to select and open one
• externalpipe-eternal - using history from scrollback for externalpipe
• newterm - new terminal in current directory
• scrollback - scroll back through terminal output using Shift+{PageUp, PageDown}
• scrollback-mouse - scrolling using MouseWheel
• scrollback-mouse-altscreen - allow scrollback only when not in MODE_ALTSCREEN
• spoiler - use inverted defaultbg/fg for selection when bg/fg are the same
• vertcenter - vertically center lines in the space available if you have set a larger chscale in config.h
