Greetings comrades,

st now has the long awaited blink support. It is more reliable than the
xterm blinking and will blink even throughout other actions happening.
Of course it can be turned off in the config.h.

There is no capability in the terminfo to have fast blinking, but an es‐
cape code exists to handle this. Adding fast blinking is easy. People
aren’t using blinking much, so I considered fast blinking a feature that
isn’t really needed.

Please try it out and see if blinking can enhance your life.


Sincerely,

Christoph Lohmann
