Thanks! No problem, let me know if you hit any other issues. It always gets tricky with the number of different configurations people have 😅

Thanks! Yes the new default colorscheme is pretty nice 😎.

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 👍

thanks!

Yep

haha yep 🙂 took a couple attempts to get it to where it is but I'm happy with it now

ah I gotcha. There is no option at the moment to completely disable the scrollback, but you could hook into some callbacks to trigger and customizations.

For example,

your_awesome_config.lua

 lua

    
local M = {}

M.config = function(kitty_data)
  return {
    paste_window = {
      winblend = 10,
      winopts_overrides = function(paste_winopts)
        local h = vim.o.lines - 5 -- TODO: magic number 3 for footer and 2 for border
        return {
          border = 'solid',
          row = 0,
          col = 0,
          height = h < 1 and 3 or h, -- TODO: magic number 3 for footer
          width = vim.o.columns,
        }
      end,
      footer_winopts_overrides = function(footer_winopts, paste_winopts)
        return {
          border = 'single',
          title = ' kitty-scrollback.nvim ',
          title_pos = 'center',
        }
      end,
    },
    kitty_get_text = {
      extent = 'screen',
      ansi = true,
    },
    callbacks = {
      after_ready = function(kitty_data, opts)
        vim.cmd.startinsert()
      end,
    },
  }
end

return M

  

kitty.conf

    
map f1 kitty_scrollback_nvim --config-file /your_awesome_config.lua

  

I plan to document some of the advanced configurations, just haven't had time to get to it 👍

I could add an option to have no scrollback and a single buffer like you mentioned similar to `` behavior in bash. I'll think on that one.

Thanks for the kind words 🙂

thanks! when you say launch empty, do you mean without the scrollback buffer? or just with a blank window for the command?
