- POSIX states the SHELL environment variable "... shall represent a pathname of the user's preferred command language interpreter." As such, st should check for its presence when deciding what shell to use; just as HOME can be defined to override one's passwd-defined home directory, a user should also be able to override their passwd-defined shell using the SHELL environment variable.
st - simple terminal
--------------------
st is a simple 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 did not install st with make clean install, you must compile
the st terminfo entry with the following command:
tic -s st.info
See the man page for additional details.
