- Offloads rendering to the GPU for lower system load and buttery
smooth scrolling. Uses threaded rendering to minimize input latency.
- Supports all modern terminal features: graphics (images), unicode,
true-color, OpenType ligatures, mouse protocol, hyperlinks, focus
tracking, bracketed paste and several new terminal protocol
extensions.
- Supports tiling multiple terminal windows side by side in different
layouts without needing to use an extra program like tmux
- Can be controlled from scripts or the shell prompt, even over SSH.
- Has a framework for Kittens, small terminal programs that can be
used to extend kitty's functionality. For example, they are used for
Unicode input, Hints and Side-by-side diff.
- Supports startup sessions which allow you to specify the window/tab
layout, working directories and programs to run on startup.
- Cross-platform: kitty works on Linux and macOS, but because it uses
only OpenGL for rendering, it should be trivial to port to other
Unix-like platforms.
- Allows you to open the scrollback buffer in a separate window using
arbitrary programs of your choice. This is useful for browsing the
history comfortably in a pager or editor.
- Has multiple copy/paste buffers, like vim.
