     50 .SH DESCRIPTION
     51 .B st
     52 is a simple terminal emulator.
     53 .SH OPTIONS
     54 .TP
     55 .B \-a
     56 disable alternate screens in terminal
     57 .TP
     58 .BI \-c " class"
     59 defines the window class (default $TERM).
     60 .TP
     61 .BI \-f " font"
     62 defines the
     63 .I font
     64 to use when st is run.
     65 .TP
     66 .BI \-g " geometry"
     67 defines the X11 geometry string.
     68 The form is [=][<cols>{xX}<rows>][{+-}<xoffset>{+-}<yoffset>]. See
     69 .BR XParseGeometry (3)
     70 for further details.
     71 .TP
     72 .B \-i
     73 will fixate the position given with the -g option.
     74 .TP
     75 .BI \-n " name"
     76 defines the window instance name (default $TERM).
     77 .TP
     78 .BI \-o " iofile"
     79 writes all the I/O to
     80 .I iofile.
     81 This feature is useful when recording st sessions. A value of "-" means
     82 standard output.
     83 .TP
     84 .BI \-T " title"
     85 defines the window title (default 'st').
     86 .TP
     87 .BI \-t " title"
     88 defines the window title (default 'st').
     89 .TP
     90 .BI \-w " windowid"
     91 embeds st within the window identified by
     92 .I windowid
     93 .TP
     94 .BI \-l " line"
     95 use a tty
     96 .I line
     97 instead of a pseudo terminal.
     98 .I line
     99 should be a (pseudo-)serial device (e.g. /dev/ttyS0 on Linux for serial port
    100 0).
    101 When this flag is given
    102 remaining arguments are used as flags for
    103 .BR stty(1).
    104 By default st initializes the serial line to 8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit
    105 and a 38400 baud rate. The speed is set by appending it as last argument
    106 (e.g. 'st -l /dev/ttyS0 115200'). Arguments before the last one are
    107 .BR stty(1)
    108 flags. If you want to set odd parity on 115200 baud use for example 'st -l
    109 /dev/ttyS0 parenb parodd 115200'. Set the number of bits by using for
    110 example 'st -l /dev/ttyS0 cs7 115200'. See
    111 .BR stty(1)
    112 for more arguments and cases.
    113 .TP
    114 .B \-v
    115 prints version information to stderr, then exits.
    116 .TP
    117 .BI \-e " command " [ " arguments " "... ]"
    118 st executes
    119 .I command
    120 instead of the shell.  If this is used it
    121 .B must be the last option
    122 on the command line, as in xterm / rxvt.
    123 This option is only intended for compatibility,
    124 and all the remaining arguments are used as a command
    125 even without it.
    126 .SH SHORTCUTS
    127 .TP
    128 .B Break
    129 Send a break in the serial line.
    130 Break key is obtained in PC keyboards

    132 .TP
    133 .B Ctrl-Print Screen
    134 Toggle if st should print to the
    135 .I iofile.
    136 .TP

    139 .I iofile.
    140 .TP

    142 Print the selection to the
    143 .I iofile.
    144 .TP
    145 .B Ctrl-Shift-Page Up
    146 Increase font size.

    162 .SH CUSTOMIZATION

    164 can be customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the source
    165 code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple.
