Show HN: Hucksh – A Shell with a Good Memory
* The terminal emulator is a fork of Darktile (https://github.com/liamg/darktile) with very few changes.
This is not a SaaS. You download code and run the front- and back-end yourself, like ssh/sshd. (Except it doesn't run as root.)
This is a commercial product. Without a license, the app limits you to a single top-level window, with two shell tabs. (Similar to a single iTerm window with two tabs.) With a license, as many windows and tabs as you like.
I'm looking for any kind of feedback whatsoever, positive or negative, from the app itself, to the documentation and other online information, to this very post.
hucksh is currently available for macOS and Linux.

Neovide – a simple, no-nonsense, cross-platform GUI for Neovim
Another problem is that the cursor moves while the screen is buffer is being rendered. The location is only really known once the cursor settles in the same place for some time, which is unacceptable in terms of latency.
The synchronized output extension could be used to do this, though. https://github.com/contour-terminal/contour/blob/master/docs...

Contour: Modern and Fast Terminal Emulator
https://github.com/contour-terminal/contour/issues/382
This apparently does not support the Kitty graphics protocol, just Sixel, which makes it look fairly unattractive to me, personally.

Is there a way to make Dolphin use a terminal app other than Konsole?
https://github.com/contour-terminal/contour Contour has a implementation for this. See this release: https://github.com/contour-terminal/contour/releases/tag/v0.3.6.240

Speeding up incremental Rust compilation with dylibs - Robert Krahn
Now that I'm well rested I decided to compile some similar terminal emulators with clang++ and rustc to see how big of a gap we're looking at. For the C++ terminal emulator I compiled contour with ~80k lines of C++ and over 200k lines when accounting for dependencies (not including dynamically linked dependencies), and then I'm using alacritty with ~35k lines of Rust and over 2 million (!) lines for the whole dependency tree when vendoring all dependencies. Because Rust tries to make most software cross platform with conditional compilation and many of these aren't Linux specific libraries I'm gonna assume it's compiling half or two thirds of the lines of dependencies for this experiment with the C++ compiling probably 3/4ths of the dependency tree considering I'm not on windows.
