For many key variables, this build of st will look for X settings set in either ~/.Xdefaults or ~/.Xresources. You must run xrdb on one of these files to load the settings.
For example, you can define your desired fonts, transparency or colors:
*.font: Liberation Mono:pixelsize=12:antialias=true:autohint=true;
*.alpha: 0.9
*.color0: #111
...
The alpha value (for transparency) goes from 0 (transparent) to 1 (opaque).
To be clear about the color settings:
- This build will use gruvbox colors by default and as a fallback.
- If there are Xresources colors defined, those will take priority.
- But if
walhas run in your session, its colors will take priority.
Note that when you run wal, it will negate the transparency of existing windows, but new windows will continue with the previously defined transparency.
If st crashes when viewing emojis, install libxft-bgra from the AUR.
Note that some special characters may appear truncated if too wide. You might want to manually set your prefered emoji/special character font to a lower size in the config.h file to avoid this. By default, JoyPixels is used at a smaller size than the usual text.
