+option
+=========
+
+Description
+-----------
+This patch adds variable called `option` to config.def.h so st can run shell with argument.
+
+
+Example
+-------
+`static char *shell = "/usr/bin/ash";`
+
+`char *option = "-l";`
+
+so now st runs ash with `-l` argument so ash opens as login shell so it sources /etc/profile.d/ files.
