Sorry, typo.
Just remove the st from the end of the line and you will get my result.
That doesn't address the problem. /usr/bin/st can come from the AUR package. /usr/local/bin/st is something else entirely. What is it? Where does it come from? How was it built? Why was it built?
It seems you are building st and installing it manually. Is there a reason for this? Why not use a PKGBUILD? This is a bit tangential in hindsight as /usr/local/bin/st does seem to be a valid / actual build of st, but I wanted to rule out some odd wrapper higher in PATH than an actual /usr/bin/st - that's not the case, which is good, but still a curiosity why you don't use a PKGBUILD to make a proper package.

I clone their repository and build + install it with their default make file.
They use /usr/local as prefix folder in the script.

I uninstalled st with the script and installed st from AUR (with yay).
ST still failed to run but with different error:

warning: no locale support
XOpenIM failed: could not open input device

picaso127, I hope you just missed this and are not ignoring it.

I updated the title from keyboard not responding on DWM to the current title.

Try to use en_IL.utf8

Read the quote again; it's not about editing your title.

I update all my locale to en_IL.UTF-8 and it worked.

export LC_ALL="en_Il.UTF-8"

Thanks for the help

The shards of Trilby's shouldland …
=P

Please don't use LC_ALL, really fix your locale instead, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Locale

RE: Shouldland, I'm not sure what else is going on here, but this seems to be a multi-hit issue. Having a non-UTF8 locale is not sufficient to replicate the errors.

XopenIM cannot find an IM for the specific locale, eg. de_DE@euro and en_US work for me™ but de_DE.iso885915@euro fails
So to be more accurate, st (and lots of other stuff itr) depends on a locale that maps to an IM (which should™ be all of UTF-8 and a bunch of other locales. You know, the important ones ;-)

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks.
