    > Paste from iPad to blink works out of the box, but in opposite it depends. If we copy wrapped lines, usually they breaks. I don't mind apps with menus and interfaces (i.e. mc, tmux with window splits, editors, etc.)

    > As for now, the perfect solution is to use OSC52 escape codes, these works well with ssh and recent mosh.

  • template-nixos

    The NixOS template, configured for Gitpod (www.gitpod.io) to give you pre-built, nix based ephemeral operating system environments in the cloud.

  • Geoff here from Gitpod. Compsci is an area where Gitpod really shines because it enables you to share whatever you are hacking on without subjecting who you are sharing it with, with the burden of installing dependencies.

    Thus, yes, indeed Haskell and SBCL or anything works exceptionally well. Here’s NixOS running on Gitpod btw https://github.com/gitpod-io/template-nixos

  • publish-extensions

    Scripts for publishing VS Code extensions to open-vsx.org

  • Geoff here from Gitpod. Solid write up and overview here. Some minor clarifications and helpful pointers!

    There’s a community WIP pull request open right now to add Gitea support.

    The visual studio marketplace is proprietary (by design) and as such we created OpenVSX for the open source ecosystem then gifted it to the eclipse foundation. If you see something not in OpenVSX send the pull request here https://github.com/open-vsx/publish-extensions

    And, finally, Open source communities are eligible for complimentary plan upgrades to unlimited hours. https://www.gitpod.io/blog/gitpod-for-opensource
