😽 kitty-scrollback.nvim: v2.0.0 breaking changes + setup config + kitty_mod + demos

What is kitty-scrollback.nvim?

kitty-scrollback.nvim

A Neovim plugin (and Kitty Kitten) that allows you to navigate your Kitty scrollback buffer to quickly search, copy, and execute commands in Neovim.

See Migrating to v2.0.0 for the detailed migration guide.

The --config-file option has been removed. Custom configurations are now supplied in the setup() function instead of separate config file. The config name corresponds to the key of the table provided to setup().
The default mapping keys changed from ctrl+shift to kitty_mod
36 demos added to the Wiki Advanced-Configuration to exercise the different configuration options of kitty-scrollback.nvim. Here are a few.

might switch from alacritty to kitty almost just for this (although I've been meaning to for a while). the "immediately get scroll back into an nvim buffer to edit as a command" is pretty sweet
Really cool!
- thanks!
What's a kitty scrollback buffer?
- I see. Kitty is a terminal.
  
  Yep
- Yep you got it. Kitty is a terminal. The scrollback buffer is the screen + history of the terminal session. This plugin lets you open it with Neovim plus some extras 👍
