Pray tell, what's "st"? It's not googlable.

It's a crappy terminal emulator that has poor support for everything and requires you compile plug-ins yourself to mitigate said poor support.

Some users feel this is good because it has little "bloat". It has pretty high latency[0] to show for it but saves 500 or so KiB on their hard drive[1].
