kitty Description

This kitty is for power keyboard users. All its controls can be used with the keyboard, although it also supports mouse interactions. Its configuration is simple and easily editable by humans. I prefer to store configuration in source control. The code in kitty was designed to be modular, easy-to-use, and hackable. It is written in a mixture of C (for performance sensitive parts), and Python (for easy hackability). It doesn't depend on any complicated UI toolkit and uses only OpenGL to render everything. Lastly, kitty was designed from the ground up in order to support all modern terminal features such as unicode and true color, bold/italic fonts and text formatting. It extends existing text formatting escape code support to add support for additional features such as colored and styled underlines. Kitty's design goal is to be extensible so that future features can be added.
