FWIW, if one (as I do) always run a tmux instance on top of whatever X terminal one launches, neither the lack of scrollback buffer nor the double-click-and-drag selection should be on the TODO list, since these features are moot granted one uses tmux. In fact, I'd prefer they be treated as bloat

I've also noticed that my vim theme paints invisible text (try doing "TERM=xterm vim somfile" and see what happens), but I've begun using vile recently so that's really of no consequence. Honestly, since urxvt works fine here, I'll probably just go back to that. I can't figure this one out and I r

There is a patch to support Xft somewhere (but it's slow). We have to re-implement the GLYPH_DIRTY trick to speed the rendering. On Tue, May 31, 2011 at 3:46 PM, Le Tian wrote: > Well, when I got tired of urxvt, aterm and xterm, I switched to "terminal" > and then "sakura", both very lightweight

I'm attempting to get st to use Dina as it's font. At first, I couldn't get st to read the font at all (it would die upon launching, saying it couldn't find the font), but I've had issues with Dina before - the CP1252 encoding was giving urxvt problems a while back so I re-encoded it (to ISO8859-1)
