Terminal

which I prefer and why:

among wezterm, foot, alacritty and kitty I prefer alacritty:

• support for copy mode (not in kitty and foot)
• url pattern work on multiline (not in wezterm, foot)

→ Alacritty

#create new window from an existing process
alacritty msg create-window

• create new window
• set TERM to alacritty ?

For host that does not have entry for alacritty (infocmp alacritty)

#.ssh/config
Host *
    SetEnv TERM=xterm-256color

#has only amd64 releases, and is nigthly
