#: Fonts {{{
#: kitty has very powerful font management. You can configure
#: individual font faces and even specify special fonts for particular
#: characters.
# font_family JetBrains Mono
# font_family Hasklig
font_family Source Code Pro
# font_family APL386 Unicode
# font_family Fira Code
# font_family Liga SFMono Nerd Font
# bold_font auto
# italic_font auto
# bold_italic_font auto
#: You can specify different fonts for the bold/italic/bold-italic
#: variants. To get a full list of supported fonts use the `kitty
#: list-fonts` command. By default they are derived automatically, by
#: the OSes font system. Setting them manually is useful for font
#: families that have many weight variants like Book, Medium, Thick,
#: etc. For example::
#: font_family Operator Mono Book
#: bold_font Operator Mono Medium
#: italic_font Operator Mono Book Italic
#: bold_italic_font Operator Mono Medium Italic
#: Font size (in pts)
font_size 7.0
adjust_line_height 1
# adjust_column_width 0
#: Change the size of each character cell kitty renders. You can use
#: either numbers, which are interpreted as pixels or percentages
#: (number followed by %), which are interpreted as percentages of the
#: unmodified values. You can use negative pixels or percentages less
#: than 100% to reduce sizes (but this might cause rendering
#: artifacts).
# symbol_map U+E0A0-U+E0A2,U+E0B0-U+E0B3 PowerlineSymbols
#: Map the specified unicode codepoints to a particular font. Useful
#: if you need special rendering for some symbols, such as for
#: Powerline. Avoids the need for patched fonts. Each unicode code
#: point is specified in the form U+<code point in hexadecimal>. You
#: can specify multiple code points, separated by commas and ranges
#: separated by hyphens. symbol_map itself can be specified multiple
#: times. Syntax is::
#: symbol_map codepoints Font Family Name
# disable_ligatures never
disable_ligatures cursor
#: Choose how you want to handle multi-character ligatures. The
#: default is to always render them. You can tell kitty to not render
#: them when the cursor is over them by using cursor to make editing
#: easier, or have kitty never render them at all by using always, if
#: you don't like them. The ligature strategy can be set per-window
#: either using the kitty remote control facility or by defining
#: shortcuts for it in kitty.conf, for example::
#: map alt+1 disable_ligatures_in active always
#: map alt+2 disable_ligatures_in all never
#: map alt+3 disable_ligatures_in tab cursor
# box_drawing_scale 0.001, 1, 1.5, 2
#: Change the sizes of the lines used for the box drawing unicode
#: characters These values are in pts. They will be scaled by the
#: monitor DPI to arrive at a pixel value. There must be four values
#: corresponding to thin, normal, thick, and very thick lines.
#: }}}
#: Cursor customization {{{
# cursor #79d4d5
#: Default cursor color
# cursor_text_color #000000
#: Choose the color of text under the cursor. If you want it rendered
#: with the background color of the cell underneath instead, use the
#: special keyword: background
# cursor_shape block
cursor_beam_thickness 1
cursor_trail 9
cursor_trail_decay 0.1 0.2
#: The cursor shape can be one of (block, beam, underline)
cursor_blink_interval 0.5
#: The interval (in seconds) at which to blink the cursor. Set to zero
#: to disable blinking. Negative values mean use system default. Note
#: that numbers smaller than repaint_delay will be limited to
#: repaint_delay.
# cursor_stop_blinking_after 0
#: Stop blinking cursor after the specified number of seconds of
#: keyboard inactivity. Set to zero to never stop blinking.
#: }}}
#: Scrollback {{{
scrollback_lines 9000
#: Number of lines of history to keep in memory for scrolling back.
#: Memory is allocated on demand. Negative numbers are (effectively)
#: infinite scrollback. Note that using very large scrollback is not
#: recommended as it can slow down resizing of the terminal and also
#: use large amounts of RAM.
# scrollback_pager less --chop-long-lines --RAW-CONTROL-CHARS +INPUT_LINE_NUMBER
scrollback_pager nvim -c 'silent %!ansifilter -p -c' -c 'silent g/^133;.\\/normal f\d^x' -c 'norm G' -c 'silent! ?^\S' -c nohl -c 'set nonu' -c 'set nornu' -c 'set signcolumn=no' -c 'set laststatus=0' -c 'set cmdheight=0' -
#: Program with which to view scrollback in a new window. The
#: scrollback buffer is passed as STDIN to this program. If you change
#: it, make sure the program you use can handle ANSI escape sequences
#: for colors and text formatting. INPUT_LINE_NUMBER in the command
#: line above will be replaced by an integer representing which line
#: should be at the top of the screen.
# scrollback_pager_history_size 0
#: Separate scrollback history size, used only for browsing the
#: scrollback buffer (in MB). This separate buffer is not available
#: for interactive scrolling but will be piped to the pager program
#: when viewing scrollback buffer in a separate window. The current
#: implementation stores one character in 4 bytes, so approximatively
#: 2500 lines per megabyte at 100 chars per line. A value of zero or
#: less disables this feature. The maximum allowed size is 4GB.
# wheel_scroll_multiplier 5.0
#: Modify the amount scrolled by the mouse wheel. Note this is only
#: used for low precision scrolling devices, not for high precision
#: scrolling on platforms such as macOS and Wayland. Use negative
#: numbers to change scroll direction.
# touch_scroll_multiplier 1.0
#: Modify the amount scrolled by a touchpad. Note this is only used
#: for high precision scrolling devices on platforms such as macOS and
#: Wayland. Use negative numbers to change scroll direction.
#: }}}
#: Mouse {{{
mouse_hide_wait -1
#: Hide mouse cursor after the specified number of seconds of the
#: mouse not being used. Set to zero to disable mouse cursor hiding.
#: Set to a negative value to hide the mouse cursor immediately when
#: typing text. Disabled by default on macOS as getting it to work
#: robustly with the ever-changing sea of bugs that is Cocoa is too
#: much effort.
# url_color #79d4d5
url_style single
#: The color and style for highlighting URLs on mouse-over. url_style
#: can be one of: none, single, double, curly
# open_url_modifiers kitty_mod
#: The modifier keys to press when clicking with the mouse on URLs to
#: open the URL
open_url_with default
#: The program with which to open URLs that are clicked on. The
#: special value default means to use the operating system's default
#: URL handler.
# copy_on_select no
#: Copy to clipboard or a private buffer on select. With this set to
#: clipboard, simply selecting text with the mouse will cause the text
#: to be copied to clipboard. Useful on platforms such as macOS that
#: do not have the concept of primary selections. You can instead
#: specify a name such as a1 to copy to a private kitty buffer
#: instead. Map a shortcut with the paste_from_buffer action to paste
#: from this private buffer. For example::
#: map cmd+shift+v paste_from_buffer a1
#: Note that copying to the clipboard is a security risk, as all
#: programs, including websites open in your browser can read the
#: contents of the system clipboard.
# strip_trailing_spaces never
#: Remove spaces at the end of lines when copying to clipboard. A
#: value of smart will do it when using normal selections, but not
#: rectangle selections. always will always do it.
# rectangle_select_modifiers ctrl+alt
#: The modifiers to use rectangular selection (i.e. to select text in
#: a rectangular block with the mouse)
# terminal_select_modifiers shift
#: The modifiers to override mouse selection even when a terminal
#: application has grabbed the mouse
# select_by_word_characters :@-./_~?&=%+#
#: Characters considered part of a word when double clicking. In
#: addition to these characters any character that is marked as an
#: alphanumeric character in the unicode database will be matched.
# click_interval -1.0
#: The interval between successive clicks to detect double/triple
#: clicks (in seconds). Negative numbers will use the system default
#: instead, if available, or fallback to 0.5.
focus_follows_mouse no
#: Set the active window to the window under the mouse when moving the
#: mouse around
pointer_shape_when_grabbed beam
#: The shape of the mouse pointer when the program running in the
#: terminal grabs the mouse.
#: }}}
#: Performance tuning {{{
# repaint_delay 10
#: Delay (in milliseconds) between screen updates. Decreasing it,
#: increases frames-per-second (FPS) at the cost of more CPU usage.
#: The default value yields ~100 FPS which is more than sufficient for
#: most uses. Note that to actually achieve 100 FPS you have to either
#: set sync_to_monitor to no or use a monitor with a high refresh
#: rate. Also, to minimize latency when there is pending input to be
#: processed, repaint_delay is ignored.
# input_delay 3
#: Delay (in milliseconds) before input from the program running in
#: the terminal is processed. Note that decreasing it will increase
#: responsiveness, but also increase CPU usage and might cause flicker
#: in full screen programs that redraw the entire screen on each loop,
#: because kitty is so fast that partial screen updates will be drawn.
# sync_to_monitor yes
#: Sync screen updates to the refresh rate of the monitor. This
#: prevents tearing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_tearing)
#: when scrolling. However, it limits the rendering speed to the
#: refresh rate of your monitor. With a very high speed mouse/high
#: keyboard repeat rate, you may notice some slight input latency. If
#: so, set this to no.
#: }}}
#: Terminal bell {{{
enable_audio_bell no
#: Enable/disable the audio bell. Useful in environments that require
#: silence.
visual_bell_duration 0.1
#: Visual bell duration. Flash the screen when a bell occurs for the
#: specified number of seconds. Set to zero to disable.
window_alert_on_bell yes
#: Request window attention on bell. Makes the dock icon bounce on
#: macOS or the taskbar flash on linux.
# bell_on_tab yes
#: Show a bell symbol on the tab if a bell occurs in one of the
#: windows in the tab and the window is not the currently focused
#: window
command_on_bell play -n synth 0.1 sine 1970 vol 0.1
#: Program to run when a bell occurs.
#: }}}
#: Window layout {{{
# remember_window_size yes
initial_window_width 97c
initial_window_height 24c
#: If enabled, the window size will be remembered so that new
#: instances of kitty will have the same size as the previous
#: instance. If disabled, the window will initially have size
#: configured by initial_window_width/height, in pixels. You can use a
#: suffix of "c" on the width/height values to have them interpreted
#: as number of cells instead of pixels.
# enabled_layouts *
#: The enabled window layouts. A comma separated list of layout names.
#: The special value all means all layouts. The first listed layout
#: will be used as the startup layout. For a list of available
#: layouts, see the
#: https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/index.html#layouts.
# window_resize_step_cells 2
# window_resize_step_lines 2
#: The step size (in units of cell width/cell height) to use when
#: resizing windows. The cells value is used for horizontal resizing
#: and the lines value for vertical resizing.
# window_border_width 1.0
#: The width (in pts) of window borders. Will be rounded to the
#: nearest number of pixels based on screen resolution. Note that
#: borders are displayed only when more than one window is visible.
#: They are meant to separate multiple windows.
draw_minimal_borders yes
#: Draw only the minimum borders needed. This means that only the
#: minimum needed borders for inactive windows are drawn. That is only
#: the borders that separate the inactive window from a neighbor. Note
#: that setting a non-zero window margin overrides this and causes all
#: borders to be drawn.
# window_margin_width 20.0
#: The window margin (in pts) (blank area outside the border)
# single_window_margin_width -1000.0
#: The window margin (in pts) to use when only a single window is
#: visible. Negative values will cause the value of
#: window_margin_width to be used instead.
window_padding_width 20.0
#: The window padding (in pts) (blank area between the text and the
#: window border)
placement_strategy center
#: When the window size is not an exact multiple of the cell size, the
#: cell area of the terminal window will have some extra padding on
#: the sides. You can control how that padding is distributed with
#: this option. Using a value of center means the cell area will be
#: placed centrally. A value of top-left means the padding will be on
#: only the bottom and right edges.
# active_border_color none
#: The color for the border of the active window. Set this to none to
#: not draw borders around the active window.
# inactive_border_color #cccccc
#: The color for the border of inactive windows
# bell_border_color #ff5a00
#: The color for the border of inactive windows in which a bell has
#: occurred
# inactive_text_alpha 0.8
#: Fade the text in inactive windows by the specified amount (a number
#: between zero and one, with zero being fully faded).
hide_window_decorations yes
#: Hide the window decorations (title-bar and window borders). Whether
#: this works and exactly what effect it has depends on the window
#: manager/operating system.
# resize_debounce_time 0.1
#: The time (in seconds) to wait before redrawing the screen when a
#: resize event is received. On platforms such as macOS, where the
#: operating system sends events corresponding to the start and end of
#: a resize, this number is ignored.
# resize_draw_strategy static
#: Choose how kitty draws a window while a resize is in progress. A
#: value of static means draw the current window contents, mostly
#: unchanged. A value of scale means draw the current window contents
#: scaled. A value of blank means draw a blank window. A value of size
#: means show the window size in cells.
#: }}}
#: Tab bar {{{
# tab_bar_edge bottom
#: Which edge to show the tab bar on, top or bottom
# tab_bar_margin_width 0.0
#: The margin to the left and right of the tab bar (in pts)
tab_bar_style separator
#: The tab bar style, can be one of: fade, separator, powerline, or
#: hidden. In the fade style, each tab's edges fade into the
#: background color, in the separator style, tabs are separated by a
#: configurable separator, and the powerline shows the tabs as a
#: continuous line.
# tab_bar_min_tabs 2
#: The minimum number of tabs that must exist before the tab bar is
#: shown
# tab_switch_strategy previous
#: The algorithm to use when switching to a tab when the current tab
#: is closed. The default of previous will switch to the last used
#: tab. A value of left will switch to the tab to the left of the
#: closed tab. A value of last will switch to the right-most tab.
# tab_fade 0.25 0.5 0.75 1
#: Control how each tab fades into the background when using fade for
#: the tab_bar_style. Each number is an alpha (between zero and one)
#: that controls how much the corresponding cell fades into the
#: background, with zero being no fade and one being full fade. You
#: can change the number of cells used by adding/removing entries to
#: this list.
tab_separator " "
#: The separator between tabs in the tab bar when using separator as
#: the tab_bar_style.
# tab_title_template {title}
#: A template to render the tab title. The default just renders the
#: title. If you wish to include the tab-index as well, use something
#: like: {index}: {title}. Useful if you have shortcuts mapped for
#: goto_tab N.
# active_tab_foreground #000000
# active_tab_background #79d4d5

#: Tab bar colors and styles
#: }}}
#: Color scheme {{{
# foreground #d3d3d3
# background #222222
#: The foreground and background colors
# background_opacity 1.0
#: The opacity of the background. A number between 0 and 1, where 1 is
#: opaque and 0 is fully transparent. This will only work if
#: supported by the OS (for instance, when using a compositor under
#: X11). Note that it only sets the default background color's
#: opacity. This is so that things like the status bar in vim,
#: powerline prompts, etc. still look good. But it means that if you
#: use a color theme with a background color in your editor, it will
#: not be rendered as transparent. Instead you should change the
#: default background color in your kitty config and not use a
#: background color in the editor color scheme. Or use the escape
#: codes to set the terminals default colors in a shell script to
#: launch your editor. Be aware that using a value less than 1.0 is a
#: (possibly significant) performance hit. If you want to dynamically
#: change transparency of windows set dynamic_background_opacity to
#: yes (this is off by default as it has a performance cost)
# dynamic_background_opacity no
#: Allow changing of the background_opacity dynamically, using either
#: keyboard shortcuts (increase_background_opacity and
#: decrease_background_opacity) or the remote control facility.
# dim_opacity 0.75
#: How much to dim text that has the DIM/FAINT attribute set. One
#: means no dimming and zero means fully dimmed (i.e. invisible).
# selection_foreground #000000
#: The foreground for text selected with the mouse. A value of none
#: means to leave the color unchanged.
# selection_background #79d4d5
#: The background for text selected with the mouse.
#: The 16 terminal colors. There are 8 basic colors, each color has a
#: dull and bright version. You can also set the remaining colors from
#: the 256 color table as color16 to color255.

#: }}}
#: Advanced {{{
# shell .
#: The shell program to execute. The default value of . means to use
#: whatever shell is set as the default shell for the current user.
#: Note that on macOS if you change this, you might need to add
#: --login to ensure that the shell starts in interactive mode and
#: reads its startup rc files.
# editor .
#: The console editor to use when editing the kitty config file or
#: similar tasks. A value of . means to use the environment variables
#: VISUAL and EDITOR in that order. Note that this environment
#: variable has to be set not just in your shell startup scripts but
#: system-wide, otherwise kitty will not see it.
# close_on_child_death no
#: Close the window when the child process (shell) exits. If no (the
#: default), the terminal will remain open when the child exits as
#: long as there are still processes outputting to the terminal (for
#: example disowned or backgrounded processes). If yes, the window
#: will close as soon as the child process exits. Note that setting it
#: to yes means that any background processes still using the terminal
#: can fail silently because their stdout/stderr/stdin no longer work.
# allow_remote_control no
#: Allow other programs to control kitty. If you turn this on other
#: programs can control all aspects of kitty, including sending text
#: to kitty windows, opening new windows, closing windows, reading the
#: content of windows, etc. Note that this even works over ssh
#: connections. You can chose to either allow any program running
#: within kitty to control it, with yes or only programs that connect
#: to the socket specified with the kitty --listen-on command line
#: option, if you use the value socket-only. The latter is useful if
#: you want to prevent programs running on a remote computer over ssh
#: from controlling kitty.
# env
#: Specify environment variables to set in all child processes. Note
#: that environment variables are expanded recursively, so if you
#: use::
#: env MYVAR1=a
#: env MYVAR2=${MYVAR1}/${HOME}/b
#: The value of MYVAR2 will be a/<path to home directory>/b.
update_check_interval 0
#: Periodically check if an update to kitty is available. If an update
#: is found a system notification is displayed informing you of the
#: available update. The default is to check every 24 hrs, set to zero
#: to disable.
# startup_session none
#: Path to a session file to use for all kitty instances. Can be
#: overridden by using the kitty --session command line option for
#: individual instances. See
#: https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/index.html#sessions in the kitty
#: documentation for details. Note that relative paths are interpreted
#: with respect to the kitty config directory. Environment variables
#: in the path are expanded.
clipboard_control write-clipboard read-clipboard
#: Allow programs running in kitty to read and write from the
#: clipboard. You can control exactly which actions are allowed. The
#: set of possible actions is: write-clipboard read-clipboard write-
#: primary read-primary. You can additionally specify no-append to
#: disable kitty's protocol extension for clipboard concatenation. The
#: default is to allow writing to the clipboard and primary selection
#: with concatenation enabled. Note that enabling the read
#: functionality is a security risk as it means that any program, even
#: one running on a remote server via SSH can read your clipboard.
# term xterm-kitty
#: The value of the TERM environment variable to set. Changing this
#: can break many terminal programs, only change it if you know what
#: you are doing, not because you read some advice on Stack Overflow
#: to change it. The TERM variable is used by various programs to get
#: information about the capabilities and behavior of the terminal. If
#: you change it, depending on what programs you run, and how
#: different the terminal you are changing it to is, various things
#: from key-presses, to colors, to various advanced features may not
#: work.
#: }}}
#: OS specific tweaks {{{
# macos_titlebar_color system
#: Change the color of the kitty window's titlebar on macOS. A value
#: of system means to use the default system color, a value of
#: background means to use the background color of the currently
#: active window and finally you can use an arbitrary color, such as
#: #12af59 or red. WARNING: This option works by using a hack, as
#: there is no proper Cocoa API for it. It sets the background color
#: of the entire window and makes the titlebar transparent. As such it
#: is incompatible with background_opacity. If you want to use both,
#: you are probably better off just hiding the titlebar with
#: hide_window_decorations.
# macos_option_as_alt no
#: Use the option key as an alt key. With this set to no, kitty will
#: use the macOS native Option+Key = unicode character behavior. This
#: will break any Alt+key keyboard shortcuts in your terminal
#: programs, but you can use the macOS unicode input technique. You
#: can use the values: left, right, or both to use only the left,
#: right or both Option keys as Alt, instead.
# macos_hide_from_tasks no
#: Hide the kitty window from running tasks (Option+Tab) on macOS.
# macos_quit_when_last_window_closed no
#: Have kitty quit when all the top-level windows are closed. By
#: default, kitty will stay running, even with no open windows, as is
#: the expected behavior on macOS.
# macos_window_resizable yes
#: Disable this if you want kitty top-level (OS) windows to not be
#: resizable on macOS.
# macos_thicken_font 0
#: Draw an extra border around the font with the given width, to
#: increase legibility at small font sizes. For example, a value of
#: 0.75 will result in rendering that looks similar to sub-pixel
#: antialiasing at common font sizes.
# macos_traditional_fullscreen no
#: Use the traditional full-screen transition, that is faster, but
#: less pretty.
# macos_show_window_title_in all
#: Show or hide the window title in the macOS window or menu-bar. A
#: value of window will show the title of the currently active window
#: at the top of the macOS window. A value of menubar will show the
#: title of the currently active window in the macOS menu-bar, making
#: use of otherwise wasted space. all will show the title everywhere
#: and none hides the title in the window and the menu-bar.
# macos_custom_beam_cursor no
#: Enable/disable custom mouse cursor for macOS that is easier to see
#: on both light and dark backgrounds. WARNING: this might make your
#: mouse cursor invisible on dual GPU machines.
# linux_display_server auto
#: Choose between Wayland and X11 backends. By default, an appropriate
#: backend based on the system state is chosen automatically. Set it
#: to x11 or wayland to force the choice.
#: }}}
#: Keyboard shortcuts {{{
#: For a list of key names, see: GLFW keys
#: <https://www.glfw.org/docs/latest/group__keys.html>. The name to
#: use is the part after the GLFW_KEY_ prefix. For a list of modifier
#: names, see: GLFW mods
#: <https://www.glfw.org/docs/latest/group__mods.html>
#: On Linux you can also use XKB key names to bind keys that are not
#: supported by GLFW. See XKB keys
#: <https://github.com/xkbcommon/libxkbcommon/blob/master/xkbcommon/xkbcommon-
#: keysyms.h> for a list of key names. The name to use is the part
#: after the XKB_KEY_ prefix. Note that you should only use an XKB key
#: name for keys that are not present in the list of GLFW keys.
#: Finally, you can use raw system key codes to map keys. To see the
#: system key code for a key, start kitty with the kitty --debug-
#: keyboard option. Then kitty will output some debug text for every
#: key event. In that text look for ``native_code`` the value of that
#: becomes the key name in the shortcut. For example:
#: .. code-block:: none
#: on_key_input: glfw key: 65 native_code: 0x61 action: PRESS mods: 0x0 text: 'a'
#: Here, the key name for the A key is 0x61 and you can use it with::
#: map ctrl+0x61 something
#: to map ctrl+a to something.
#: You can use the special action no_op to unmap a keyboard shortcut
#: that is assigned in the default configuration::
#: map kitty_mod+space no_op
#: You can combine multiple actions to be triggered by a single
#: shortcut, using the syntax below::
#: map key combine <separator> action1 <separator> action2 <separator> action3 ...
#: For example::
#: map kitty_mod+e combine : new_window : next_layout
#: this will create a new window and switch to the next available
#: layout
#: You can use multi-key shortcuts using the syntax shown below::
#: map key1>key2>key3 action
#: For example::
#: map ctrl+f>2 set_font_size 20
# kitty_mod ctrl+shift
#: The value of kitty_mod is used as the modifier for all default
#: shortcuts, you can change it in your kitty.conf to change the
#: modifiers for all the default shortcuts.
# clear_all_shortcuts no
#: You can have kitty remove all shortcut definition seen up to this
#: point. Useful, for instance, to remove the default shortcuts.
# kitten_alias hints hints --hints-offset=0
#: You can create aliases for kitten names, this allows overriding the
#: defaults for kitten options and can also be used to shorten
#: repeated mappings of the same kitten with a specific group of
#: options. For example, the above alias changes the default value of
#: kitty +kitten hints --hints-offset to zero for all mappings,
#: including the builtin ones.
#: Clipboard {{{
# map kitty_mod+c copy_to_clipboard
#: There is also a copy_or_interrupt action that can be optionally
#: mapped to Ctrl+c. It will copy only if there is a selection and
#: send an interrupt otherwise.
# map kitty_mod+v paste_from_clipboard
# map kitty_mod+s paste_from_selection
# map shift+insert paste_from_selection
# map kitty_mod+o pass_selection_to_program
#: You can also pass the contents of the current selection to any
#: program using pass_selection_to_program. By default, the system's
#: open program is used, but you can specify your own, the selection
#: will be passed as a command line argument to the program, for
#: example::
#: map kitty_mod+o pass_selection_to_program firefox
#: You can pass the current selection to a terminal program running in
#: a new kitty window, by using the @selection placeholder::
#: map kitty_mod+y new_window less @selection

map kitty_mod+enter launch --type=os-window --cwd=current --hold-after-ssh
#: You can open a new window running an arbitrary program, for
#: example::
#: map kitty_mod+y launch mutt
#: You can open a new window with the current working directory set to
#: the working directory of the current window using::
#: map ctrl+alt+enter launch --cwd=current
#: You can open a new window that is allowed to control kitty via the
#: kitty remote control facility by prefixing the command line with @.
#: Any programs running in that window will be allowed to control
#: kitty. For example::
#: map ctrl+enter launch --allow-remote-control some_program
#: You can open a new window next to the currently active window or as
#: the first window, with::
#: map ctrl+n launch --location=neighbor some_program
#: map ctrl+f launch --location=first some_program
#: For more details, see launch.
# map kitty_mod+n new_os_window
map kitty_mod+n new_os_window_with_cwd
#: Works like new_window above, except that it opens a top level OS
#: kitty window. In particular you can use new_os_window_with_cwd to
#: open a window with the current working directory.
# map kitty_mod+w close_window
#: disabled:
# map kitty_mod+w no_op
# map kitty_mod+] next_window
# map kitty_mod+[ previous_window
# map kitty_mod+f move_window_forward
# map kitty_mod+b move_window_backward
# map kitty_mod+` move_window_to_top
# map kitty_mod+r start_resizing_window
# map kitty_mod+1 first_window
# map kitty_mod+2 second_window
# map kitty_mod+3 third_window
# map kitty_mod+4 fourth_window
# map kitty_mod+5 fifth_window
# map kitty_mod+6 sixth_window
# map kitty_mod+7 seventh_window
# map kitty_mod+8 eighth_window
# map kitty_mod+9 ninth_window
# map kitty_mod+0 tenth_window
#: }}}
#: Tab management {{{
# map kitty_mod+right next_tab
# map kitty_mod+left previous_tab
map kitty_mod+t new_tab_with_cwd
# map kitty_mod+q close_tab
# map kitty_mod+. move_tab_forward
# map kitty_mod+, move_tab_backward
# map kitty_mod+alt+t set_tab_title
#: You can also create shortcuts to go to specific tabs, with 1 being
#: the first tab, 2 the second tab and -1 being the previously active
#: tab::
#: map ctrl+alt+1 goto_tab 1
#: map ctrl+alt+2 goto_tab 2
#: Just as with new_window above, you can also pass the name of
#: arbitrary commands to run when using new_tab and use
#: new_tab_with_cwd. Finally, if you want the new tab to open next to
#: the current tab rather than at the end of the tabs list, use::
#: map ctrl+t new_tab !neighbor [optional cmd to run]
#: }}}
#: Layout management {{{
# map kitty_mod+l next_layout
#: You can also create shortcuts to switch to specific layouts::
#: map ctrl+alt+t goto_layout tall
#: map ctrl+alt+s goto_layout stack
#: Similarly, to switch back to the previous layout::
#: map ctrl+alt+p last_used_layout
#: }}}
#: Font sizes {{{
#: You can change the font size for all top-level kitty OS windows at
#: a time or only the current one.
map kitty_mod+equal change_font_size all +1.0
map kitty_mod+minus change_font_size all -1.0
map kitty_mod+backspace change_font_size all 0
#: To setup shortcuts for specific font sizes::
#: map kitty_mod+f6 change_font_size all 10.0
#: To setup shortcuts to change only the current OS window's font
#: size::
#: map kitty_mod+f6 change_font_size current 10.0
#: }}}
#: Select and act on visible text {{{
#: Use the hints kitten to select text and either pass it to an
#: external program or insert it into the terminal or copy it to the
#: clipboard.
# map kitty_mod+e kitten hints
map kitty_mod+w kitten hints
map kitty_mod+b>v kitten hints --program vimb
map kitty_mod+b>f kitten hints --program firefox
map kitty_mod+b>c kitten hints --program chromium
map kitty_mod+b>w kitten hints --program "launch --type os-window w3m"
#: Open a currently visible URL using the keyboard. The program used
#: to open the URL is specified in open_url_with.
# map kitty_mod+f kitten hints --type path --program "launch --type overlay-main vim"
#: Select a path/filename and insert it into the terminal. Useful, for
#: instance to run git commands on a filename output from a previous
#: git command.
# map kitty_mod+p>shift+f kitten hints --type path
map kitty_mod+f kitten hints --type path --program -
#: Select a path/filename and open it with the default open program.
# map kitty_mod+p>l kitten hints --type line --program -
#: Select a line of text and insert it into the terminal. Use for the
#: output of things like: ls -1
# map kitty_mod+p>w kitten hints --type word --program -
#: Select words and insert into terminal.
# map kitty_mod+p>h kitten hints --type hash --program -
#: Select something that looks like a hash and insert it into the
#: terminal. Useful with git, which uses sha1 hashes to identify
#: commits
#: The hints kitten has many more modes of operation that you can map
#: to different shortcuts. For a full description see kittens/hints.

#: Miscellaneous {{{
# map kitty_mod+f11 toggle_fullscreen
# map kitty_mod+f10 toggle_maximized
# map kitty_mod+u kitten unicode_input
# map kitty_mod+f2 edit_config_file
# map kitty_mod+escape kitty_shell window
#: Open the kitty shell in a new window/tab/overlay/os_window to
#: control kitty using commands.
# map kitty_mod+a>m set_background_opacity +0.1
# map kitty_mod+a>l set_background_opacity -0.1
# map kitty_mod+a>1 set_background_opacity 1
# map kitty_mod+a>d set_background_opacity default
# map kitty_mod+delete clear_terminal reset active
#: You can create shortcuts to clear/reset the terminal. For example::
#: # Reset the terminal
#: map kitty_mod+f9 clear_terminal reset active
#: # Clear the terminal screen by erasing all contents
#: map kitty_mod+f10 clear_terminal clear active
#: # Clear the terminal scrollback by erasing it
#: map kitty_mod+f11 clear_terminal scrollback active
#: # Scroll the contents of the screen into the scrollback
#: map kitty_mod+f12 clear_terminal scroll active
#: If you want to operate on all windows instead of just the current
#: one, use all instead of active.
#: It is also possible to remap Ctrl+L to both scroll the current
#: screen contents into the scrollback buffer and clear the screen,
#: instead of just clearing the screen::
#: map ctrl+l combine : clear_terminal scroll active : send_text normal,application \x0c
#: You can tell kitty to send arbitrary (UTF-8) encoded text to the
#: client program when pressing specified shortcut keys. For example::
#: map ctrl+alt+a send_text all Special text
#: This will send "Special text" when you press the ctrl+alt+a key
#: combination. The text to be sent is a python string literal so you
#: can use escapes like \x1b to send control codes or \u21fb to send
#: unicode characters (or you can just input the unicode characters
#: directly as UTF-8 text). The first argument to send_text is the
#: keyboard modes in which to activate the shortcut. The possible
#: values are normal or application or kitty or a comma separated
#: combination of them. The special keyword all means all modes. The
#: modes normal and application refer to the DECCKM cursor key mode
#: for terminals, and kitty refers to the special kitty extended
#: keyboard protocol.
#: Another example, that outputs a word and then moves the cursor to
#: the start of the line (same as pressing the Home key)::
#: map ctrl+alt+a send_text normal Word\x1b[H
#: map ctrl+alt+a send_text application Word\x1bOH
