And ctrl+shift+f is the same as ctrl+f for you? The point of using "identical" keybindings is to ease discoverability across programs. ctrl+shift+f and ctrl+f are not identical and therefore there is no point to doing that. And pr

That shortcut opens HISTORY, hence it is ctrl+shift+H. And if the terminal emulator used up ctrl+f to implement find, it would mean that no terminal program could use ctrl+f to implement find. Maybe next time before you try to imply other p

There is an escape code that does clear screen and scrollback invented by xterm \e3J. And kitty invented one that clears screen into scrollback \e22J. https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/conf/#shortcut-kitty.Reset-t...

To workaround it add the following to your shell's rc file: function reset { printf '\e]\e\\\ec' } Uses the VT100 RIS escape code to ask the terminal to reset itself. But first it send an empty OSC escape to reset the termina

Except that kitty's update check defaults to off for distro packaged software and on for non-distro packaged software, without maintainers having to do anything. https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/conf/#opt-kitty

epubor just uses the calibre derdrm plugin internally, without even acknowledging that, thereby stealing the word of the maintainers of the dedrm plugin.

Umm kitty has native tabs and the developer never tells anyone to tuse tmux, on the contrary he tells people not to use tmux. You are confusing kitty with alacritty.

Or instead it reads like someone thoughtfully came up with a minimal design and then iterated on that based on real world feedback for what is actually useful in this context. Your only actual complaints were "weird global state"

Those existing tools are poorly designed, if you read the article it has a link to the discussion about its design choices, which contains in turn discussion about all the problems with sixel https://github.com/kovidgoyal&#x

The updates have nothing to do with news parsers. News parsers are loaded dynamically, every time they are used. So are metadata downloading plugins. So are get books stores. Indeed almost all code that parses data from the web in calibre i

So now any program that's running as your user, even your browser, can edit any file you edit with sudo. It just has to watch for your editor to quit and win a race with sudo to modify the file before sudo reads it.

xrandr is not sufficient for this. One needs a way for users to configure the per monitor DPI. And have the configuration available to X clients. Currently the only cross DE mechanism for this is Xft.dpi and its global, not per monitor.

No, its only slower over PTY because the kitty protocol is transmitting images with higher fidelity, aka color accuracy. So if you want to compare apples to apples get sixel to transmit images with equal fidelity first. I'll go raise t

What nonsense. kitty's graphics protocol is literally infinitely faster than sixels for local transmission and the same speed as sixels for remote transmission, taking into account that kitty's graphics protocol supports 32bit col

neovim supports OSC 52 out of the box so clipboard over SSH should just wrk in kitty or any terminal that supports OSC 52. kitty of course supports a lot more than OSC 52 but for basic opy/paste of plain text, OSC 52 is sufficient.

terminal emulators dont actually know this. Just think of executing something via ssh. In this case the primary foreground process is ssh.

Heavens! Your terminal opens and reads a file. What a disaster. Still waiting for a concrete issue with the actual kitty graphics protocol. How is it unsafe to feed a terminal that supports the kitty graphics protocol untrusted input. One s

There's a very vocal group of such people, sadly. Thank you for saying no to them as long as you did. Makes it a little less likely the rest of us will encounter them in our open source projects.
