Error processing mouse_bindings.event.button (types: Config, Mouse, Down) `WheelUp` is not a valid MouseButton variant. Did you mean one of `WheelUp`, `WheelDown`, `WheelLeft`, `WheelRight`? Other alternatives are `Left`, `Middle`, `None`, `Right`.

yes, i did mean WheelUp. that's why i wrote WheelUp. what??

I think I am most content with a tiling window manager and no bar.

This is i3 on Artix Linux running on another liberated Chromebox.

I have to say, it’s often frustrating talking about #tmux command mode capable terminal programs like #iTerm2 and #WezTerm because it absolutely subverts the expectations of the terminal multiplexor.

tmux is like a window server for ttys, and a client TUI window manager in one executable.

When your terminal program can provide the window manager UI and communicate using the command protocol client mode to the tmux “window server,” several things happen differently:

Your local terminal GUI provides all the interaction for managing the session’s terminal layout like tabs, windows, split views. This is the most visible difference. Also you rarely have to think about tmux TUI’s
command escape for window management.

Other tmux client connections using the tmux TUI seamlessly represent the changes you made in the command mode GUI terminal and the reverse is true, it remains compatible. Split a window using the tmux TUI commands and your terminal’s version also splits. TUI clients with local terminal size limits will limit how large other clients can make tabs or windows.

if you ssh to a another host and run a tmux client TUI there, only the current viewable tty information is transferred over the ssh connection. But, if you ssh and attach to a session in command mode, instead of a TUI, your terminal recieves everything happening in all the multiplexed terms in the session, which means more data streams over the ssh connection but also your local terminal’s scrollback limits are now honored and the host you connected to does not have to maintain state to switch display context for the TUI, saving cpu and memory on that host.

After being spoiled by Kitty on CachyOS I dug a bit deeper today into Windows Terminals.

WebGPU and Harfbuzz support on Wezterm is goated.

Ya ha empezado el #ViernesdeEscritorio (al menos aquí en Austria). En esta ocasión he cambiado el fondo de escritorio y la fuente de la terminal (ahora utilizo Monaspace Argon Frozen ExtraBold).

Just got an idea to configure #WezTerm with Fennel and that's my cue that I should go to bed now.

Hey, look who’s back!

First, #VoidLinux updated without a hitch, despite being dormant for almost a year (really?! Wow!). But I didn’t – I’d completely forgotten my sway and foot shortcuts, so I installed #KDEPlasma instead (`kde-plasma` and `kde-baseapps`). It’s graphical, I know it, I like it. Then I installed `pulseaudio` to fix the sound. Enabled SDDM. And #WezTerm, why not.

Just a FYI: If you use Fedora and using Wezterm, the latest version of wezterm from COPR is an empty package due to some buggy spec change; you have to install wezterm-gui and wezterm-mux-server to make it actually installed

there is already an issue created here that you can follow:

Mulla hajosi Matrixissa Signal siltayhteys. En voinut itse korjata. Ilm. Rollen heiniä tämä tämmöinen, kun en saanut omin neuvoin ratkottua.

Anyway. Siinä tulikin tilaisuus kokeilla asentaa terminaaliin Signal.

Suurin haaste tässä oli QR-koodi. Konsole ei osannut tulostaa QR-koodista kuvaa. WezTermissä se onnistui ja sain linkitettyä Signal appiin.

Käyttöliittymä on kyl melko retro ja hauska. Tulee vähän MSN Messenger vibat tosta, ilman sitä graafista käyttöliittymää. 😂

EDIT. Ongelma korjattu! Nyt toimii Matrixissa Signal taas. Päivitykset olvat jääneet ajamatta.

Пару дней использовал #neovide. Надоело, вернул `foot nvim`. Как же легко дышится, когда редактор открывается мгновенно! Хоть я и отключил часть гламура, закинув `no-multigrid = true` в `~/.config/neovide/config.toml`, neovide всё равно какой-то медленный, вязкий, с фризами. Вот вам и blazing fast rust. Но я, конечно, спишу это на подход к разработке, а не на сишное байтодрочерство.

#wezterm сюда же. Эта падла жрёт ресурсов, как браузер. Фичей-то много, но быстрая работа таки перевешивает. Для меня это несколько неожиданно; обычно я несколько пренебрегаю скоростью работы. Однако это та вещь, которую просто нужно прочувствовать.

I've been looking at linux terminal emulators and ran some benchmarks with the DOOMFIRE test. Surprised with how good ptyxis appears to be, it leads with 130fps. Ghostty and Wezterm are next, tied around 100fps. It's all overkill once you're over 60fps so far as I understand.

github.com/const-void/DOOM-fir

#linux #terminal #ptyxis #ghostty #wezterm

We see a screengrab of a table with the headings: Terminal, Screen size and FPS. The data is below:

| Terminal   | Screen size | FPS |
| terminator | 191w x 47h  | 90  |
| ghostty    | 191w x 43h  | 105 |
| wezterm    | 190w x 43h  | 110 |
| ptyxis     | 212w x 49h  | 130 |

about (codeberg.org/janantos/brow6el) a web that uses and runs in any sixel-compatible terminal.

Here are a couple of examples of brow6el in on 24.04

Figured out how to use colors from a custom color scheme as variables in your #WezTerm config. First, load them in:

```
local var_colors = wezterm.color.load_scheme(
wezterm.home_dir .. "/.config/wezterm/colors/" .. var_scheme .. ".toml"
)
```

The `var_scheme` variable depends on the light/dark mode and also reusable in `config.color_scheme = var_scheme`.

I don’t know why a simple way, like in `config.color_scheme` doesn’t work and you need a path to the same file. 🤷

Updated my phone with a VPN because it wasn’t connecting otherwise.

Updated #Flatpak with a local server because who needs mirrors!

Fixed the Flatpak version of #WezTerm by running the #AppImage once because Flatpak.

I “love” technology. :blobcatknife:

(The actual thanks go to #TorVPN, #Python, and AppImages.)
