I dislike when devs only try to detect if it’s a tty, then enable all their gimmicks without even providing a flag. Not everything is xterm-256color.

- kps 9mo agoAnd not everything that calls itself xterm-256color is actually xterm compatible *cough* GNOME *cough*.
- bitwize 9mo agoXterm is actually a terminal emulator, and has to pass a suite of conformance tests that actually check its emulation of DEC VT series terminals. Most of its successors are more like "shitty xterm emulators" whose conformance tests are "do my favorite mOdErN CLI apps work".
