Roberto E. Vargas Caballero 3b16695f4e Fix arrow keys terminfo capabilities 
Usually the arrow keys generate the ANSI sequence which terminal will
understand like a movement, so it is not necessary any dealing for them, the
program can not know if the sequence is generate for a echo key or directly
from the program. If you need really know if the key was pressed then you
need activate the keypad mode where the keys will generate a special code
for each keypad key.

The terminfo capabilities kcub1, kcud1, kcuf1 and kcuu1 are used for this
keypad code, not for the sequence generate in the ansi mode.

st - simple terminal
--------------------
st is a simple virtual terminal emulator for X which sucks less.


Requirements
------------
In order to build st you need the Xlib header files.


Installation
------------
Edit config.mk to match your local setup (st is installed into
the /usr/local namespace by default).

Afterwards enter the following command to build and install st (if
necessary as root):

    make clean install


Running st
----------
If you don't install st, define TNAME to "xterm" in config.h or make sure to at
least compile st terminfo entry with the following command:

    tic -s st.info

It should print the path of the compiled terminfo entry. You can
safely remove it if you don't plan to use st anymore.
See the man page for additional details.
