I hope he targets something better than a vt102 (going for 520 like Zutty would be good) and remembers to do extensive checking with VTTEST.

(I have also been bitten by terminals calling themselves `xterm-256color` or some such thing while not being remotely xterm-compatible; GNOME being the worst offender, as usual. My daily driver is mlterm¹, which is pretty good in that respect² — its main downside for me is its idiosyncratic font configuration, which is tailored for multilingual flexibility, not the English-only programmer.) ¹ https://github.com/arakiken/mlterm https://github.com/arakiken/mlterm ² https://invisible-island.net/xterm/xterm.faq.html#bug_mlterm-id https://invisible-island.net/xterm/xterm.faq.html#bug_mlterm...
- alexeiz 3y agoZutty is useful for only one thing: passing VTTEST. I've tried it and it's unusable as the terminal you want to rely on to do everyday work.
- tmtvl 3y agoIt seems to work perfectly fine for me. What kind of issues do you have with it?
