font_size {{ .fontsize }} text_composition_strategy 1.0 symbol_map U+f101-U+f25c nonicons # scrollback_lines 2000 #: Number of lines of history to keep in memory for scrolling back. #: Memory is allocated on demand. Negative numbers are (effectively) #: infinite scrollback. Note that using very large scrollback is not #: recommended a it can slow down resizing of the terminal and also #: use large amounts of RAM. # scrollback_pager less --chop-long-lines --RAW-CONTROL-CHARS +INPUT_LINE_NUMBER #: Program with which to view scrollback in a new window. The #: scrollback buffer is passed as STDIN to this program. If you change #: it, make sure the program you use can handle ANSI escape sequences #: for colors and text formatting. INPUT_LINE_NUMBER in the command #: line above will be replaced by an integer representing which line #: should be at the top of the screen. # wheel_scroll_multiplier 5.0 #: Modify the amount scrolled by the mouse wheel. Note this is only #: used for low precision scrolling devices, not for high precision #: scrolling on platforms such as macOS and Wayland. Use negative #: numbers to change scroll direction. # url_color #0087BD # url_style curly #: The color and style for highlighting URLs on mouse-over. url_style #: can be one of: none, single, double, curly # open_url_modifiers kitty_mod #: The modifier keys to press when clicking with the mouse on URLs to #: open the URL # open_url_with default #: The program with which to open URLs that are clicked on. The #: special value default means to use the operating system's default #: URL handler. # copy_on_select no #: Copy to clipboard on select. With this enabled, simply selecting #: text with the mouse will cause the text to be copied to clipboard. #: Useful on platforms such as macOS/Wayland that do not have the #: concept of primary selections. Note that this is a security risk, #: as all programs, including websites open in your browser can read #: the contents of the clipboard. # rectangle_select_modifiers ctrl+alt #: The modifiers to use rectangular selection (i.e. to select text in #: a rectangular block with the mouse) # select_by_word_characters :@-./_~?&=%+# #: Characters considered part of a word when double clicking. In #: addition to these characters any character that is marked as an #: alpha-numeric character in the unicode database will be matched. # click_interval 0.5 #: The interval between successive clicks to detect double/triple #: clicks (in seconds) # mouse_hide_wait 3.0 #: Hide mouse cursor after the specified number of seconds of the #: mouse not being used. Set to zero to disable mouse cursor hiding. # focus_follows_mouse no #: Set the active window to the window under the mouse when moving the #: mouse around # repaint_delay 10 #: Delay (in milliseconds) between screen updates. Decreasing it, #: increases frames-per-second (FPS) at the cost of more CPU usage. #: The default value yields ~100 FPS which is more than sufficient for #: most uses. Note that to actually achieve 100 FPS you have to either #: set sync_to_monitor to no or use a monitor with a high refresh #: rate. # input_delay 3 #: Delay (in milliseconds) before input from the program running in #: the terminal is processed. Note that decreasing it will increase #: responsiveness, but also increase CPU usage and might cause flicker #: in full screen programs that redraw the entire screen on each loop, #: because kitty is so fast that partial screen updates will be drawn. sync_to_monitor yes #: Sync screen updates to the refresh rate of the monitor. This #: prevents tearing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_tearing) #: when scrolling. However, it limits the rendering speed to the #: refresh rate of your monitor. With a very high speed mouse/high #: keyboard repeat rate, you may notice some slight input latency. If #: so, set this to no. # remember_window_size yes # initial_window_width 640 # initial_window_height 400 #: If enabled, the window size will be remembered so that new #: instances of kitty will have the same size as the previous #: instance. If disabled, the window will initially have size #: configured by initial_window_width/height, in pixels. You can use a #: suffix of "c" on the width/height values to have them interpreted #: as number of cells instead of pixels. enabled_layouts Horizontal,Stack #: The enabled window layouts. A comma separated list of layout names. #: The special value all means all layouts. The first listed layout #: will be used as the startup layout. For a list of available #: layouts, see the #: https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/index.html#layouts. # window_resize_step_cells 2 # window_resize_step_lines 2 #: The step size (in units of cell width/cell height) to use when #: resizing windows. The cells value is used for horizontal resizing #: and the lines value for vertical resizing. # window_border_width 1.0 #: The width (in pts) of window borders. Will be rounded to the #: nearest number of pixels based on screen resolution. Note that #: borders are displayed only when more than one window is visible. #: They are meant to separate multiple windows. # draw_minimal_borders yes #: Draw only the minimum borders needed. This means that only the #: minimum needed borders for inactive windows are drawn. That is only #: the borders that separate the inactive window from a neighbor. Note #: that setting a non-zero window margin overrides this and causes all #: borders to be drawn. # window_margin_width 0.0 #: The window margin (in pts) (blank area outside the border) # single_window_margin_width -1000.0 #: The window margin (in pts) to use when only a single window is #: visible. Negative values will cause the value of #: window_margin_width to be used instead. # window_padding_width 0.0 #: The window padding (in pts) (blank area between the text and the #: window border) # active_border_color #d65d0e #: The color for the border of the active window # inactive_border_color #d5c4a1 #: The color for the border of inactive windows # bell_border_color #ff5a00 #: The color for the border of inactive windows in which a bell has #: occurred # inactive_text_alpha 1.0 #: Fade the text in inactive windows by the specified amount (a number #: between zero and one, with zero being fully faded). tab_bar_edge top tab_bar_style separator tab_separator "" tab_title_template " {index} {title} " tab_bar_background #434C5E shell {{ .shell }} editor nvim # close_on_child_death no #: Close the window when the child process (shell) exits. If no (the #: default), the terminal will remain open when the child exits as #: long as there are still processes outputting to the terminal (for #: example disowned or backgrounded processes). If yes, the window #: will close as soon as the child process exits. Note that setting it #: to yes means that any background processes still using the terminal #: can fail silently because their stdout/stderr/stdin no longer work. # allow_remote_control no #: Allow other programs to control kitty. If you turn this on other #: programs can control all aspects of kitty, including sending text #: to kitty windows, opening new windows, closing windows, reading the #: content of windows, etc. Note that this even works over ssh #: connections. # env #: Specify environment variables to set in all child processes. Note #: that environment variables are expanded recursively, so if you #: use:: #: env MYVAR1=a #: env MYVAR2=${MYVAR}/${HOME}/b #: The value of MYVAR2 will be a//b. # startup_session none #: Path to a session file to use for all kitty instances. Can be #: overridden by using the kitty --session command line option for #: individual instances. See #: https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/index.html#sessions in the kitty #: documentation for details. Note that relative paths are interpreted #: with respect to the kitty config directory. Environment variables #: in the path are expanded. # clipboard_control write-clipboard write-primary #: Allow programs running in kitty to read and write from the #: clipboard. You can control exactly which actions are allowed. The #: set of possible actions is: write-clipboard read-clipboard write- #: primary read-primary The default is to allow writing to the #: clipboard and primary selection. Note that enabling the read #: functionality is a security risk as it means that any program, even #: one running on a remote server via SSH can read your clipboard. # term xterm-kitty #: The value of the TERM environment variable to set. Changing this #: can break many terminal programs, only change it if you know what #: you are doing, not because you read some advice on Stack Overflow #: to change it. The TERM variable if used by various programs to get #: information about the capabilities and behavior of the terminal. If #: you change it, depending on what programs you run, and how #: different the terminal you are changing it to is, various things #: from key-presses, to colors, to various advanced features may not #: work. macos_option_as_alt yes #: Use the option key as an alt key. With this set to no, kitty will #: use the macOS native Option+Key = unicode character behavior. This #: will break any Alt+key keyboard shortcuts in your terminal #: programs, but you can use the macOS unicode input technique. # macos_hide_from_tasks no #: Hide the kitty window from running tasks (Option+Tab) on macOS. macos_quit_when_last_window_closed yes #: Have kitty quit when all the top-level windows are closed. By #: default, kitty will stay running, even with no open windows, as is #: the expected behavior on macOS. # macos_window_resizable yes #: Disable this if you want kitty top-level (OS) windows to not be #: resizable on macOS. # macos_thicken_font 0 #: Draw an extra border around the font with the given width, to #: increase legibility at small font sizes. For example, a value of #: 0.75 will result in rendering that looks similar to sub-pixel #: antialiasing at common font sizes. # macos_traditional_fullscreen no #: Use the traditional full-screen transition, that is faster, but #: less pretty. macos_custom_beam_cursor yes #: Enable/disable custom mouse cursor for macOS that is easier to see #: on both light and dark backgrounds. WARNING: this might make your #: mouse cursor invisible on dual GPU machines. #: For a list of key names, see: GLFW keys #: . The name to use #: is the part after the GLFW_KEY_ prefix. For a list of modifier #: names, see: GLFW mods #: #: On Linux you can also use XKB key names to bind keys that are not #: supported by GLFW. See XKB keys #: for a list of key names. The name to use is the part #: after the XKB_KEY_ prefix. Note that you should only use an XKB key #: name for keys that are not present in the list of GLFW keys. #: Finally, you can use raw system key codes to map keys. To see the #: system key code for a key, start kitty with the kitty --debug- #: keyboard option. Then kitty will output some debug text for every #: key event. In that text look for ``native_code`` the value of that #: becomes the key name in the shortcut. For example: #: .. code-block:: none #: on_key_input: glfw key: 65 native_code: 0x61 action: PRESS mods: 0x0 text: 'a' #: Here, the key name for the A key is 0x61 and you can use it with:: #: map ctrl+0x61 something #: to map ctrl+a to something. #: You can use the special action no_op to unmap a keyboard shortcut #: that is assigned in the default configuration. #: You can combine multiple actions to be triggered by a single #: shortcut, using the syntax below:: #: map key combine action1 action2 action3 ... #: For example:: #: map kitty_mod+e combine : new_window : next_layout #: this will create a new window and switch to the next available #: layout #: You can use multi-key shortcuts using the syntax shown below:: #: map key1>key2>key3 action #: For example:: #: map ctrl+f>2 set_font_size 20 kitty_mod alt #: The value of kitty_mod is used as the modifier for all default #: shortcuts, you can change it in your kitty.conf to change the #: modifiers for all the default shortcuts. # clear_all_shortcuts no #: You can have kitty remove all shortcut definition seen up to this #: point. Useful, for instance, to remove the default shortcuts. # map cmd+c copy_to_clipboard # map kitty_mod+c copy_to_clipboard # map cmd+v paste_from_clipboard # map kitty_mod+v paste_from_clipboard # map kitty_mod+s paste_from_selection # map shift+insert paste_from_selection # map kitty_mod+o pass_selection_to_program #: You can also pass the contents of the current selection to any #: program using pass_selection_to_program. By default, the system's #: open program is used, but you can specify your own, for example:: #: map kitty_mod+o pass_selection_to_program firefox #: You can pass the current selection to a terminal program running in #: a new kitty window, by using the @selection placeholder:: #: map kitty_mod+y new_window less @selection # map kitty_mod+up scroll_line_up # map kitty_mod+k scroll_line_up # map kitty_mod+down scroll_line_down # map kitty_mod+j scroll_line_down # map kitty_mod+page_up scroll_page_up # map kitty_mod+page_down scroll_page_down # map kitty_mod+home scroll_home # map kitty_mod+end scroll_end # map kitty_mod+h show_scrollback #: You can pipe the contents of the current screen + history buffer as #: STDIN to an arbitrary program using the ``pipe`` function. For #: example, the following opens the scrollback buffer in less in an #: overlay window:: #: map f1 pipe @ansi overlay less +G -R #: Placeholders available are: @text (which is plain text) and @ansi #: (which includes text styling escape codes). For only the current #: screen, use @screen or @ansi_screen. For the secondary screen, use #: @alternate and @ansi_alternate. The secondary screen is the screen #: not currently displayed. For example if you run a fullscreen #: terminal application, the secondary screen will be the screen you #: return to when quitting the application. You can also use ``none`` #: for no STDIN input. #: To open in a new window, tab or new OS window, use ``window``, #: ``tab``, or ``os_window`` respectively. You can also use ``none`` #: in which case the data will be piped into the program without #: creating any windows, useful if the program is a GUI program that #: creates its own windows. # map kitty_mod+enter new_window #: You can open a new window running an arbitrary program, for #: example:: #: map kitty_mod+y new_window mutt #: You can open a new window with the current working directory set to #: the working directory of the current window using:: #: map ctrl+alt+enter new_window_with_cwd #: You can open a new window that is allowed to control kitty via the #: kitty remote control facility by prefixing the command line with @. #: Any programs running in that window will be allowed to control #: kitty. For example:: #: map ctrl+enter new_window @ some_program # map cmd+n new_os_window # map kitty_mod+n new_os_window # map kitty_mod+w close_window # map kitty_mod+] next_window # map kitty_mod+[ previous_window # map kitty_mod+f move_window_forward # map kitty_mod+b move_window_backward # map kitty_mod+` move_window_to_top # map kitty_mod+r start_resizing_window # map kitty_mod+1 first_window # map kitty_mod+2 second_window # map kitty_mod+3 third_window # map kitty_mod+4 fourth_window # map kitty_mod+5 fifth_window # map kitty_mod+6 sixth_window # map kitty_mod+7 seventh_window # map kitty_mod+8 eighth_window # map kitty_mod+9 ninth_window # map kitty_mod+0 tenth_window # map alt+left previous_tab # map alt+right next_tab # map alt+1 goto_tab 1 # map alt+2 goto_tab 2 # map alt+3 goto_tab 3 # map alt+4 goto_tab 4 # map alt+5 goto_tab 5 # map alt+6 goto_tab 6 # map alt+7 goto_tab 7 # map alt+8 goto_tab 8 # map alt+9 goto_tab 9 # map alt+t set_tab_title # map kitty_mod+. move_tab_forward # map kitty_mod+, move_tab_backward # map ctrl+tab next_tab # map ctrl+shift+tab previous_tab # map kitty_mod+n new_tab map kitty_mod+right next_tab map kitty_mod+left previous_tab map kitty_mod+tab goto_tab -1 map kitty_mod+w close_tab map kitty_mod+1 goto_tab 1 map kitty_mod+2 goto_tab 2 map kitty_mod+3 goto_tab 3 map kitty_mod+4 goto_tab 4 map kitty_mod+5 goto_tab 5 map kitty_mod+6 goto_tab 6 map kitty_mod+7 goto_tab 7 map kitty_mod+8 goto_tab 8 map kitty_mod+9 goto_tab 9 map kitty_mod+R set_tab_title #: You can also create shortcuts to go to specific tabs, with 1 being #: the first tab:: #: map ctrl+alt+1 goto_tab 1 #: map ctrl+alt+2 goto_tab 2 #: Just as with new_window above, you can also pass the name of #: arbitrary commands to run when using new_tab and use #: new_tab_with_cwd. Finally, if you want the new tab to open next to #: the current tab rather than at the end of the tabs list, use:: #: map ctrl+t new_tab !neighbor [optional cmd to run] # map kitty_mod+l next_layout #: You can also create shortcuts to switch to specific layouts:: #: map ctrl+alt+t goto_layout tall #: map ctrl+alt+s goto_layout stack #: Similarly, to switch back to the previous layout:: #: map ctrl+alt+p last_used_layout #: You can change the font size for all top-level kitty windows at a #: time or only the current one. # map kitty_mod+equal change_font_size all +2.0 # map kitty_mod+minus change_font_size all -2.0 # map kitty_mod+backspace change_font_size all 0 #: To setup shortcuts for specific font sizes:: #: map kitty_mod+f6 change_font_size all 10.0 #: To setup shortcuts to change only the current window's font size:: #: map kitty_mod+f6 change_font_size current 10.0 #: Use the hints kitten to select text and either pass it to an #: external program or insert it into the terminal or copy it to the #: clipboard. # map kitty_mod+e kitten hints #: Open a currently visible URL using the keyboard. The program used #: to open the URL is specified in open_url_with. # map kitty_mod+p>f kitten hints --type path --program - #: Select a path/filename and insert it into the terminal. Useful, for #: instance to run git commands on a filename output from a previous #: git command. # map kitty_mod+p>shift+f kitten hints --type path #: Select a path/filename and open it with the default open program. # map kitty_mod+p>l kitten hints --type line --program - #: Select a line of text and insert it into the terminal. Use for the #: output of things like: ls -1 # map kitty_mod+p>w kitten hints --type word --program - #: Select words and insert into terminal. # map kitty_mod+p>h kitten hints --type hash --program - #: Select something that looks like a hash and insert it into the #: terminal. Useful with git, which uses sha1 hashes to identify #: commits #: The hints kitten has many more modes of operation that you can map #: to different shortcuts. For a full description see kittens/hints. # map kitty_mod+f11 toggle_fullscreen # map kitty_mod+u kitten unicode_input # map kitty_mod+f2 edit_config_file # map kitty_mod+escape kitty_shell window #: Open the kitty shell in a new window/tab/overlay/os_window to #: control kitty using commands. # map kitty_mod+a>m set_background_opacity +0.1 # map kitty_mod+a>l set_background_opacity -0.1 # map kitty_mod+a>1 set_background_opacity 1 # map kitty_mod+a>d set_background_opacity default # map kitty_mod+delete clear_terminal reset active #: You can create shortcuts to clear/reset the terminal. For example:: #: map kitty_mod+f9 clear_terminal reset active #: map kitty_mod+f10 clear_terminal clear active #: map kitty_mod+f11 clear_terminal scrollback active #: These will reset screen/clear screen/clear screen+scrollback #: respectively. If you want to operate on all windows instead of just #: the current one, use all instead of :italic`active`. #: You can tell kitty to send arbitrary (UTF-8) encoded text to the #: client program when pressing specified shortcut keys. For example:: #: map ctrl+alt+a send_text all Special text #: This will send "Special text" when you press the ctrl+alt+a key #: combination. The text to be sent is a python string literal so you #: can use escapes like \x1b to send control codes or \u21fb to send #: unicode characters (or you can just input the unicode characters #: directly as UTF-8 text). The first argument to send_text is the #: keyboard modes in which to activate the shortcut. The possible #: values are normal or application or kitty or a comma separated #: combination of them. The special keyword all means all modes. The #: modes normal and application refer to the DECCKM cursor key mode #: for terminals, and kitty refers to the special kitty extended #: keyboard protocol. #: Another example, that outputs a word and then moves the cursor to #: the start of the line (same as pressing the Home key):: #: map ctrl+alt+a send_text normal Word\x1b[H #: map ctrl+alt+a send_text application Word\x1bOH # BEGIN_KITTY_THEME include Nord.conf # END_KITTY_THEME # BEGIN_KITTY_FONTS font_family family="Brutalist Mono" bold_font auto italic_font auto bold_italic_font auto # END_KITTY_FONTS
