Alacritty doesn’t do well with modifier keys and a lot of keyboard shortcuts don’t work in neovim by default. I recommend using foot instead.

- yjftsjthsd-h 2y agoCan you give an example? I've never hit that, but I might not be using it that hard
- _lvbh 2y agoAny shortcuts with control/alt don’t work unless you add keybindings to the config with escape sequences. Some distros give you the config by default but that breaks other things such as jumping to the start of a command with ctrl+a
- Fluorescence 2y agoThat is not my experience: ctrl-a jumps to the start of a command. I've not seen any issues with Ubuntu, tmux and fish. All tmux and fish keyboard shortcuts have worked without any alacrity configuration (that I can recall). My tmux config adds shortcuts to behave like a conventional tabbed window without any issues e.g. ctrl-n (new tab), ctrl-w (close tab), ctrl-page-up/down to navigate tabs.

- asdwar532grf 2y agoNever had any issues with alacritty/neovim, but foot is much faster. Sadly no ligature support though: https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/57 https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/57
