SYNOPSIS

stterm [-a] [-c class] [-f font] [-g geometry] [-i] [-o file] [-T title] [-l line] [-w windowid] [-v] [-e command...] [commands...]

st [-a] [-c class] [-f font] [-g geometry] [-i] [-o file] [-t title] [-l line] [-w windowid] [-v] [-l line] [stty_args...]

DESCRIPTION

stterm is a simple terminal emulator. The original project released the binary under name "st". If you would like to access the program by a short name, add an alias or function to the shell startup file:
alias st=stterm # E.g. in ~/.bashrc for bash; consult your $SHELL

OPTIONS

-a
disable alternate screens in terminal
-c class
defines the window class (default $TERM).
-f font
defines the font to use.
-g geometry
defines the X11 geometry string. The form is [=][<cols>{xX}<rows>][{+-}<xoffset>{+-}<yoffset>]. See XParseGeometry(3) for further details.
-i
will fixate the position given with the -g option.
-o iofile
writes all the I/O to iofile. This feature is useful when recording sessions. A value of "-" means standard output.
-T title
defines the window title (default 'st').
-w windowid
embeds stterm within the window identified by windowid
-l line
use a tty line instead of a pseudo terminal. When this flag is used remaining arguments are used as flags for stty.
-v
prints version information to stderr, then exits.
-e program [ arguments ... ]
executes program instead of the shell. If this is used it must be the last option on the command line, as in xterm / rxvt. This option is only intended for compability, and all the remaining arguments are used as a command even without it.
