But how often do you get some output and think "oh, I actually needed that" and just re-run it? It works for 99% of the cases, but in this 1% it takes a bit of work to "reset" an environment for a second run. In both cases, you needlessly lose time. > I have been using st all this time even with those issues that I also > think are annoying.

This is exactly the anti-pattern I pointed out. Given windows are not kept at fixed sizes in a tiling wm, st _especially_ needs to satisfy that it is not "affected" by resizes. > Issue 2) I would be glad to have fixed.

Yes, I would love to hear from you all what your opinion on this matter is. With best regards Laslo
