Kitty

OpenGL hardware accelerated terminal that is SIGNIFICANTLY, IMPORTANTLY much faster than gnome-terminal on abtdev1 via SPICE.

Config

All config (colors, keyboard, much more...) is here, "self-documented":

development/config/common/home/m/.config/kitty/kitty.conf

When ssh'ing to a new machine, it will not "know" kitty by default. To teach an ubuntu machine about it:

sudo apt install kitty-terminfo

Or, when you ssh, use a kitten:

kitty +kittens ssh newplace

Or, go manual by following this.

Now LOG OUT, log back in, and enjoy the speed of kitty.

Right now there are two solarized color blocks in the config, one for dark one for light. Red needs some work!

sudo apt install kitty

Add ctrl-shift-t shortcut in i3 config, starting it with correct path and using -1 (so one daemon is used for all shells, nice and fast).
