Hacker News Reader

I just built and tested it on Mountain Lion. The text stays put and leaves the newly created space empty, just like xterm. I think the point st is that it is small enough to be hackable , so it might not be too difficult to add the feature.

On a separate note; I'm not sure why, but xterm actually launches faster than st, although both are so fast it doesn't matter.

Unicode rxvt reflows text too. Only other terminal that does outside of the osx terminals.

Screen used in xterm (or any other terminal emulator that normally does not reflow) will reflow (though tmux never will).

gnome-terminal does it and probably the others based on the VTE widget also do.

Not from my experience. Last tried in Ubuntu 10.10 and it didn't, unsure of the exact version. Will double-check though as I may be wrong. I use the XFCE terminal (also VTE based I believe) and that doesn't do it.

That doesn't work for me on Fedora 17 or Ubuntu 12.04
