      1 Goals
      2 =====
      3 
      4 This page is to discuss and maybe add comments on the future of st.

      6 TODO
      7 ----
      8 * see the TODO file in the [repository](//git.suckless.org/st/plain/TODO)
      9 
     10 Theoretical features
     11 --------------------
     12 * st should keep a pointer to the beginning of the oldest line, because we
     13   would like to keep lines and not part of them (pancake).
     14 * Edit previous text in the terminal like in Plan 9 and 9term (jt_).
     15 
     16 Goals
     17 -----
     18 * Have a working graphical terminal for terminal applications.
     19 * Do not reimplement tmux and his comrades.
     20 
     21 Non-goals
     22 ---------
     23 * Filters that change colour (should be done by tmux or something doing the
     24   higher layers in st).
     25 * Server to save sessions in case of X crash (should be done by dtach or tmux).
     26 * Unlimited scrollback buffer (done by dvtm or tmux).
     27 * URL selecting/launching in browser similiar to vimperator's mark mode and the
     28   urxvt script. However, this can be done by a simple shortcut in dwm which will
     29   launch your plumber on the current select buffer. St has easy select through
     30   double-click. This keeps the complex logic out of the st context.
