I was hoping to see a more modern alternative to the VTE terminal protocol and its derivatives. Does anybody have any good suggestions and possible implementations?
- j-james 4y agoYes, kitty has a series of VTE terminal protocol extensions: https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/protocol-extensions/ https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/protocol-extensions/ The intention is to document them well enough that other terminal emulators can implement them (which some have). Among those is a graphics protocol, which is actually (optionally) used by chafa. Another is a keyboard protocol extension: which has been implemented by a number of editors and other terminals: notably neovim, kakoune, helix, wezterm, and foot. https://github.com/wez/wezterm/issues/986 https://github.com/wez/wezterm/issues/986 https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/319 https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/issues/319
