There's an invocation of tic(1M) in the install target of st's Makefile. It installs st and variants to a place it sees fit in your system, like /usr/lib/terminfo, or home directory. As you were consistently mute about your system and the environment in which programs fail on st for you, it would be *a lot* of work telling you what exactly to do for each system where st can be expected to work on. There are probably many. Btw, please avoid top-posting around here. cheers! mar77i
