Sounds like you didn't install the terminfo correctly.

Alright, could you please specify your OS, Window manager, compiler,
compiler version, CFLAGS used when compiling st, your config.h
(if there is anything special there), the st version you're using
(revision hash if it's from git), the value of $EDITOR and $VISUAL

It works well for me


For me it simply doesn't fill the terminal with the /etc/sudoers in
the editor instead it trying to fill after the current position of the
cursor as I move the cursor up or down and the screen scrolls in doing
so.


are you sure you're using the right editor? have you tried invoking
'visudo' on a different terminal emulator?

Hi

You can just run 'visudo' in st and check if it does the job. Easy
enough to check, isnt it?

For me it simply doesn't fill the terminal with the /etc/sudoers in
the editor instead it trying to fill after the current position of the
cursor as I move the cursor up or down and the screen scrolls in doing
so.

[dev] [ st ] - 'visudo' has strange effect

2016-10-30 Thread Mohammed Zohaib Ali Khan
Hi Suckless Group,

I have come across suckless group quite recently and I really like the
suckless philosophy. Being a beginner myself I hope I would learn a
lot from the suckless code :)

Coming to the point, I am using 'st' teminal and when I used 'visudo'
command in it, it did not render properly. If you are unable to
replicate the effect, please let me know I can provide more details on
it.


Regards,

Zohaib Khan
