defines the
.I font
to use when st is run.
.TP
.BI \-g " geometry"
defines the X11 geometry string.
The form is [=][<cols>{xX}<rows>][{+-}<xoffset>{+-}<yoffset>]. See

for further details.
.TP

.TP
.BI \-o " file"
writes all the I/O to
.I file.
This feature is useful when recording st sessions. A value of "-" means

instead of the shell.  If this is used it
.B must be the last option
on the command line, as in xterm / rxvt.
.SH CUSTOMIZATION

can be customized by creating a custom config.h and (re)compiling the source
code. This keeps it fast, secure and simple.
