Roberto E. Vargas Caballero 720cb816dc Remove buffering to fileio instead of calling fflush
By default text files are line buffered, and this means that -f option will
not write the line until a \n is printed. This is not very useful for
debugging, so a call to fflush was added. This patch substitute this call
(which will be done by each character painted) by the full remove of the
buffering in the file.

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.
