I don't think you understand. I am having trouble with sandy in st with TERM=st.
I tried different combinations in an attempt to give more info and
narrow down the problem.
I'm using sandy git master and tried both st 0.6 and st master, both
have this problem with TERM=st.
I've tried putting the terminfo files first in ~/. terminfo and next
in /usr/share/terminfo
"hs" which in man terminfo refers to "has_status_line" seems like a
likely candidate, so I removed it from st.info and reinstalled.
It seems to fix it, but I don't want to remove hs if there is a good
reason it's in there.
