termite VS iced

- you can also rectangular select like in vim, and then press either p (includes LF) or which joins the multiline clipboard text into a single line (removing LF's), that payed off a lot for output like `git status` and wanting to operate on parts of the output (files e.g.)

Have a look at the still young website's documentation here: https://contour-terminal.org/input-modes/#supported-text-obj...

for a more complete look of what you can do with the keyboard (normal mode) :)

Also, regarding VTE, the author of termite (discontinued terminal emulator) expressed similar concerns about the GNOME devs. Apparently, they have little interest in making the library useful to people not working on GNOME apps: https://github.com/thestinger/termite

Termite is obsolete by Alacritty.

I simply do not want to use anything libvte based. And that's what sakura is and termite used to be.

History and experience tells a different story [1]. Never trust a library that is maintained by GNOME.

This post by the Termite developer, with respect to VTE, is quite instructive

Wow, this confirms a lot of my impressions:

>> In 2012, we submitted a tiny patch exposing the APIs needed for the keyboard text selection, hints mode and other features. Despite support from multiple other projects, the patch was rejected. It's now almost a decade later and no progress has been made. There is no implementation of these kinds of features in VTE and it's unlikely they'll be provided either internally or as flexible APIs. This is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to their hostility towards other projects using VTE as a library. GTK and most of the GNOME project are much of the same. Avoid them and don't make the mistake of thinking their libraries are meant for others to use.

This is exactly why sixel-tmux exists as a separate entity!

> Yeah, I read the entire conversation and if sixel support lands in tmux upstream, it would indeed be good news.

I'll keep my fingers crossed, but right now, there seems to be a lot of good will. I will do everything I can.

I am building an app using Iced that takes hashes of the files in a directory and assigns them to a profile. The problem is that I can't get the progress bar to update in real time. I've been checking out examples like this https://github.com/iced-rs/iced/tree/master/examples/download_progress. But I just can't get the progress bar to move. Is anyone available to take a look at my code and maybe show me a fix (as long as you're okay with MIT licensing your changes)?

What about Yew and Iced?

Working on Halloy - an IRC chat client for Mac, Windows and Linux. Written with Iced as GUI framework.

It’s a pretty new feature we merged 2 months ago: https://github.com/iced-rs/iced/pull/1856

Holy shit this GUI framework looks good. I am a Qt fanboi, but this looks great. Normally, I skip all the "X for Rust" posts as a bunch of fanaticism. Could it really be different this time???

The feature list is really impressive: https://github.com/iced-rs/iced

Plus, here is the road map with many things already done: https://github.com/iced-rs/iced/blob/master/ROADMAP.md

Wow, wow, wow: Keep up the great work.

One of the rendering engines is Skia by Google. This library is sneaking up fast on us...
