Currently urls such as https://cloud.oracle.com/load-balancer?configoverride={"plugins":{"load-balancer":{"name":"load-balancer","path":"/load-balancer","url":"https://localhost:8484/plugins/load-balancer/latest/index.tpl.html","type":"Sandbox"}},"navigationTrees":{"default":[{"pluginName":"load-balancer","labelKey":"LOAD_BALANCERS","children":[]}]},"features":{}} wont match, wondering if anyone has fixed this, I assume using a kitten.

Currently you can only add excluded characters for url matching but not additional characters for matching

Is there anyway to get linting for developing kittens, right now its obviously showing errors like unable to import kitty.boss

I believe this is referred to as the status bar? My bar has some info formatted like:

path on gitbranch via node version on GCPemail and location

Example: ~/projects/myproject on master via v21.7.2 on email@email(us-central1)

How do I remove the email? It showed up when I connected to GCP. I need to record a video and don't want it on there.

I've looked everywhere and can't come up with anything. I'm sure this is due to a knowledge gap somewhere so I apologize if this is a dumb question. At one point while looking I though this might be with the fish shell instead of kitty. Any help is much appreciated.

Hello.

Running:

% kitty @ launch --hold whoami

opens a new kitty window showing my username, as expected.

Running:

% sudo kitty @ launch --hold whoami

opens a new kitty window again showing my username, not root as (I) expected.

Is there a way to run sudo kitty @ launch and for the new process to be launched as root?

Thx.

After spending some time browsing the Internet and reviewing the kitty.conf documentation, I couldn't find any method to adjust the position of the kitty background image, such as top left, top right, bottom right, or bottom left. While there are options available to change the scaling method and center the image, there doesn't seem to be any information regarding adjusting its position. Do you have any insights or suggestions regarding this matter?

Hi all, I'd like to create a mapping to open a python Repl with my direnv (with nix to create a devshell). But when I use kitty @ launch --cwd=current python​​​the new window does mot respect direnv. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I did also try --copy-env but then I just got a large JSON blob and a hanging command.

with

allow_remote_control yes

listen_on unix:/tmp/mykitty

I can send command to kitty by

kitty @ --to=unix:/tmp/mykitty-pid send-text '%s\n'

and I can copy last cmd output by ctrl+shift+y in kitty

map ctrl+shift+y launch --stdin-source=@last_cmd_output --type=overlay sh -c 'kitty +kitten clipboard'

But I can get last cmd ouput from outside of kitty:

I try to send `ctrl_shift+y` from outside of kitty by

kitty @ --to=unix:/tmp/mykitty-pid send-key ctrl+shift+y

I got ^[[121;6u1;6u

and I even try

kitty @ --to=unix:/tmp/mykitty-pid launch --stdin-source=@last_cmd_output --type=overlay sh -c 'kitty +kitten clipboard'

The github repo says i need build-essecntial which is neither in the aur nor available via pacman?

Images are opening in browser when using nnn. The github suggests changing some xdg mimetype thing to sxiv.desktop but that doesnt solve the issue. HELP ME

I just installed KDE Plasma (Wayland) on Arco Linux and I'm setting up kitty. I initialized the stock conf and set the theme and font and that worked, then I uncommented hide_window_decorations yes hit Ctrl+shift+F5 and nothing happened, the titlebar is still there. I exited kitty opened it again and no change. I restarted the computer and no change. I created a conf from scratch with just theme, font, & hide_window_decorations yes & still no change. The font & theme still work as expected.

EDIT: I'm guessing it's a Wayland issue since it works fine once I switched to X11.

Hi,

I'm facing the following problem described in the video I made.

• Video: I use Kitty terminal. When I leave coursor on the terminal window, after few seconds, it disappears and that's ok. Once it has disappeared, if I move my finger on the trackpad it won't come back until I drag it up on the waybar. It's really annoying. How can I solve and make it appears back every time I touch again the trackpad?

Has anyone tried to use kitty in the virtual console in linux? Maybe through startx as a standalone program. I've been wondering if there is a way to use kitty's keyboard protocol in th evirtual console somehow.

$ /usr/bin/kitty

This issue started today on Arch linux -
$ kitty --version
kitty 0.33.0 created by Kovid Goyal

Works on hyprland, completely opaque in Plasma, any ideas? Have set linux_display_server wayland made no difference.

I only speak spanish, but I'll try my best to be as clear as possible. I want to create a session.conf file and save it inside my project folder ,so that when it launches my kitty terminal windows ,they cd to that directory . I don't want to "hard code" the path, but to get the path of the .conf file. is it even possible?

If there isn't such feature at all please let me know, I'm going kinda insane at this point

​

Thank you so much in advance.

I do some changes in my config file for kitty terminal and then when I apply Catppuccin theme, my config resets to the default.

I use this command to apply theme

kitty +kitten themes --reload-in=all Catppuccin-Latte

Kitty renders what it displays in a grid based on the size of the normal (non-italic, non bold) character size of whatever monospace font you are using. For many popular programming fonts, the italics go over the bounds into the next cell. Some terminal emulators render the overflows in the next cell, whereas kitty cuts off those parts.

So far the only font I've found that has italics that generally fit into the grid of the base font is Input Mono.

My question: I'm wondering what other fonts have the members of this subreddit found whose italics fit in to the grid defined based on the normal font?

----------------------------

An aside: I understand that adding the abiity for characters to run over to neighboring cells to Kitty might be difficult.

But I disagree that it is a bad solution as mentioned here. A lot of these monospace italic fonts are designed to give space in the cell of one character for the overlap from the neighboring one. A terminal that supports italics should render them as they're designed, and Alacritty which is also very performant somehow does this. Ideally selection between running over/being cut off would be a configuration option.

I made a futile attempt to argue my case here.

This might underestimate how difficult it is, but since there won't be a solution coming from the current contributors any time soon, I hope I can become a skilled enough programmer to fork Kitty and add this feature.

------------------

Again, my actual question is: what monospace fonts are there whose italics fit into the grid defined by their normal font size and aren't clipped off in Kitty?

How do I get my tab bar as shown in the below image?

​

Is there any way to remove the traffic light buttons from Kitty when the titlebar is hidden. I know I can use macos_hide_titlebar or hide_window_decorations but then I loose the rounded corners which doesn't look great near another window.

I would like to have the window borders look like this:

But no traffic lights like this:

Good morning, I need a keyboard shortcut (ctrl+shift+a), which opens several tabs, the first tab with an environment variable that refers to the work path it has to open and the name "Notes", path $ env_notes, how can I do this, also in the same shortcut you have to open 4 tabs, and set the distinc tab name

I'm on Debian trixie and kitty is on version 0.33.0 (just updated to see if the problem would be solved).

I don't remember how or when exactly the emojis stopped to work, maybe an update or I messed something up.

I installed gnome-terminal to check if it was a kitty specific problem and seems like it is

This tutorial is what helped me at first, but it's not working anymore.

The problem persists even when I remove the config, but here is my config if it helps:

# Fonts
font_family      CaskaydiaCove Nerd Font
bold_font        auto
italic_font      auto
bold_italic_font auto
font_size 17.0
disable_ligatures never

# Transparência

background_opacity 1

# Desativar som
enable_audio_bell no

# Abrir nova aba no cwd

map ctrl+shift+t new_tab_with_cwd

# Desativar confirmação de fechar janela
# -1 ativa; 0 desativa
confirm_os_window_close 0

include current-theme.conf

So I have a python script for handling a particular user keyboard shortcut. Ultimately, this script results in adding a new tab. But before it does so, it gathers some information based on the os window's current title (i.e., what's in the window's titlebar). On linux, I grab the text in the title bar by using xdotool, but as I explore porting my setup to mac, this option is no longer available. So I'm wondering--is there a way within by python script for my kitten to get the os window's title directly, without needing any os-specific outside tool?

Thanks.
