- amelius 9mo agoOk, maybe I should have said "framebuffers" instead of images. Because that Kitty protocol seems limited in that interaction was not one of their goals.

- ux266478 9mo agoWhat's the point? If you want a framebuffer, ask the windowing system for one. Why go through a terminal emulator?
- amelius 9mo agoBecause this one works through screen/tmux, and works over ssh without messing with DISPLAY variables and such.
