Hi all, As I'm enrolled in Google Summer of Code until the end of summer, updates to st are unlikely. If someone is interested in working on it, ask Anselm for a write access to the repo. If you want some ideas, here are a few a the top of my head:
* I think the Xdbe patch is interesting and should be integrated. Any experimentation to make the drawing faster while keeping the terminal logic separated from the drawing is welcome. As I've already said, I'm don't know much about X11. * There are also some bugfixes that have been posted on the list that I have not looked into which should probably be integrated as well. I'm thinking of the the new-output-but-not-refreshing bug which is annoying. * Improve xterm compatibility. * The selection code has to be cleaned up. I've started to commit some things locally but it's not finished. * Merge the Xft branch and refactor code in order to have one interface for both system. Improve the support for unusual glyph in a smart way (switch to another font is not present in the current one, etc). This can be tedious because you have to work around Xlib in weird ways. You can look at urxvt for implementation details. * Implement scrollback buffer. I've never needed this one but it's one of those thing where lot of people ask for it and it's not very hard to implement. * There's more in the TODO and README files.
