Goals
=====
+TODO
+----
+* see the TODO file in the [repository](
http://hg.suckless.org/st/summary)
+
Confirmed st features
----------------------
-* _Good_ xterm compliance (Arg)
-* Filters that change colour (Arg)
-* Server to save session in case you crash X (Arg)
-* Unlimited scrollback buffer (Arg)
+* much has been implemented
Theoretical features
--------------------
-* Redirect the IO of the terminal to a file (pancake)
* st should keep a pointer to the beginning of the oldest line, because we
would like to keep lines and not part of them (pancake)
* Edit previous text in the terminal like in Plan 9 and 9term (jt_)
-* URL selecting/launching in browser similiar to vimperator's mark mode and the
- urxvt script (patch?) (possibly piped through something like plumb to
- determine which app to use) (n0nsense)
-* More features not thought up at the moment
+* add your feature request here
Goals
-----
-* suck less
+- have a working graphical terminal for terminal applications
+- do no reimplement tmux and his comrades
Non-goals
---------
-- ?
+- filters that change colour (should be done by tmux or something doing the
+ higher layers *in* st)
+- server to save sessions in case of X crash (should be done by tmux)
+- unlimited scrollback buffer (done by tmux)
+- URL selecting/launching in browser similiar to vimperator's mark mode and the
+ urxvt script (patch?) (possibly piped through something like plumb to
+ - This one is done by a simple shortcut in dwm which will launch your
+ plumber on the current select buffer. St has easy select through
+ double-click. This keeps the complex logic out of the st context.
