Contour: Modern and Fast Terminal Emulator
- 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) :)

GNOME’s horrid coding practices
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

Help me to find a minimal terminal that supports full transparency
Termite is obsolete by Alacritty.

Why are kitty and alacritty so popular? Where's the foot love?
I simply do not want to use anything libvte based. And that's what sakura is and termite used to be.

Exploring System76's New Rust Based Desktop Environment
History and experience tells a different story [1]. Never trust a library that is maintained by GNOME.

System76: A Case Study on How Not To Collaborate With Upstream
This post by the Termite developer, with respect to VTE, is quite instructive

Show HN: Sixel-tmux displays graphics even if your terminal has no Sixel support
> https://github.com/thestinger/termite/blob/master/README.rst...
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.

Learn AutoHotKey by stealing my scripts
If you like macOS keyboard shortcuts, I recommend you checkout Kinto go Windows and Linux. On Windows, Kinto used AHK
However, at least when I set it up Kinto did not provide switching windows I’m this fashion. Here is the script I use.

Toshy v23.08: Mac-like per-app keyboard shortcuts. Now supports Solus 4.4.
The project was based on another project that's been around for a few years called Kinto, by Ben Reaves, which notably also has a Windows version (https://kinto.sh) using AutoHotkey. But has no Wayland support (at this time) in its Linux version.

Toshy v23.07: Mac-like per-app keyboard shortcuts. Supports Tumbleweed and Leap.
Toshy is based on Kinto.sh, by Ben Reaves (https://kinto.sh or https://github.com/rbreaves/kinto). Kinto is basically an extensive keymapper config that not only shifts modifier keys appropriately for different keyboard types, but has full keymaps for a number of different apps like VSCode. My variant of Kinto adds some features and utilities for managing the services that make it work, and tools like a script to change the function keys mode of any keyboard that uses hid_apple. That means MacBook keyboards mostly, but also some non-Apple keyboards with media keys apparently use that driver module.

Swap alt and win keys using command line
I don’t know if you can activate it via a keyboard shortcut, but I use Kinto.sh to swap keys on my MacBooks.

Macbook keyboard type for Fedora
Hello, there's an open issue about this in their repo: https://github.com/rbreaves/kinto/issues/772

emergency mac user,can i make it more linux?
There is a setting in keyboard preferences for that.However if you can get yourself used to macOS shortcuts I highly recommend doing so as they seem to be superior especially if you are a programmer and use the terminal a lot, as on macOS you can simply use Command+C to copy from a terminal and Ctrl+C still works for sending SIGINT. Also Command+, will open preferences for almost every application on macOS. Shortcuts on macOS are very consistent across many apps unlike on Linux or Windows. After you get your Linux laptop back you can continue using these shortcuts thanks to a tool called kinto.sh.

Keyd: Linux Key Remapper
Tangential: I'm currently looking for a way to map Mac-style shortcuts on Linux (e. g. Meta + C/V for copy / paste). The only thing I know is https://kinto.sh/, but it looks a bit too janky to my taste. Any other ideas?
