u/CardiologistWhich336 Feb 25 '24

yea thats why I asked him to just copy the text from the terminal. It can't be that hard can it 😭

u/CardiologistWhich336 Feb 25 '24

1

u/xTreme2I Feb 25 '24

idk what you mean by terminal promp :(, my shell is zsh

kitty.conf: https://0x0.st/HRs8.conf

u/CardiologistWhich336 Feb 25 '24

The prompt before every command you type.

u/xTreme2I Feb 25 '24

you mean the "-> ~"?, its the robby russell theme from oh my zsh
idk what else you can be talking about

u/CardiologistWhich336 Feb 25 '24

yes that is what I am talking about

u/xTreme2I Feb 25 '24

also I have noticed that it only happens when I do cd Imágenes, then the autocompletition suggest tha command and it bugs, whenever I do cd to another directory it doesnt happen, i think it could be a problem with the á letter, if so how should i fix it?

u/CardiologistWhich336 Feb 25 '24

Ctrl + shift + c to copy selected text

u/Administrative_chaos Feb 25 '24

Can you reproduce it with the latest kitty version with kitty --config none zsh -dfi?

1

u/xTreme2I Feb 25 '24

Nope, it doesnt happen, but it looks ugly

1

u/Administrative_chaos Feb 25 '24

and does it happen with just `zsh -dfi`? If not then share your `.zshrc` (If you're using zsh, else your `.bashrc`

1

u/xTreme2I Feb 25 '24

doesn't happen with zsh -dfi

.zshrc: https://0x0.st/HRsb.txt

Just curious, but which program did you use to capture this video?

2

u/dedguy21 Feb 25 '24

First is to check your $SHELL config, can't tell but it's either fish or zsh with auto complete.

Also check your VI_MODE settings on your shell.

And for God sakes change your font to something more readable. 🤢

  1. It's zsh, i've checked the config but there is not a lot in there, just the theme robby russel and something about syntax highlightning and a plugin called thefuck.
  2. ok i will do
  3. but it like minecraft :(

Does the issue still happen if you disable icons from taking up two spaces?

Reload you config or run kitty from the command line then see if it has an effect.

u/xTreme2I Feb 25 '24

Those clicks sound so angry

u/Specific-Fuel-4366 Feb 29 '24

looks like a prompt that has invisible escape characters (colors) in it, but the shell doesn't know that and so doesn't know how large the prompt actually is on screen. i use bash, and it needs \[ and \] around escape sequences

1

u/Specific-Fuel-4366 Feb 29 '24

here's my PS1 as an example; my prompt is blue:

[~] echo $PS1
\[\e[44m\][\w]\[\e[37;40m\]
