#: Fonts {{{
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: kitty has very powerful font management. You can configure
 | 
						||
#: individual font faces and even specify special fonts for particular
 | 
						||
#: characters.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# font_family      monospace
 | 
						||
# bold_font        auto
 | 
						||
# italic_font      auto
 | 
						||
# bold_italic_font auto
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: You can specify different fonts for the bold/italic/bold-italic
 | 
						||
#: variants. The easiest way to select fonts is to run the `kitten
 | 
						||
#: choose-fonts` command which will present a nice UI for you to
 | 
						||
#: select the fonts you want with previews and support for selecting
 | 
						||
#: variable fonts and font features. If you want to learn to select
 | 
						||
#: fonts manually, read the font specification syntax
 | 
						||
#: <https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/kittens/choose-fonts/#font-spec-
 | 
						||
#: syntax>.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# font_size 11.0
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Font size (in pts).
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# force_ltr no
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: kitty does not support BIDI (bidirectional text), however, for RTL
 | 
						||
#: scripts, words are automatically displayed in RTL. That is to say,
 | 
						||
#: in an RTL script, the words "HELLO WORLD" display in kitty as
 | 
						||
#: "WORLD HELLO", and if you try to select a substring of an RTL-
 | 
						||
#: shaped string, you will get the character that would be there had
 | 
						||
#: the string been LTR. For example, assuming the Hebrew word ירושלים,
 | 
						||
#: selecting the character that on the screen appears to be ם actually
 | 
						||
#: writes into the selection buffer the character י. kitty's default
 | 
						||
#: behavior is useful in conjunction with a filter to reverse the word
 | 
						||
#: order, however, if you wish to manipulate RTL glyphs, it can be
 | 
						||
#: very challenging to work with, so this option is provided to turn
 | 
						||
#: it off. Furthermore, this option can be used with the command line
 | 
						||
#: program GNU FriBidi <https://github.com/fribidi/fribidi#executable>
 | 
						||
#: to get BIDI support, because it will force kitty to always treat
 | 
						||
#: the text as LTR, which FriBidi expects for terminals.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# symbol_map
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: E.g. symbol_map U+E0A0-U+E0A3,U+E0C0-U+E0C7 PowerlineSymbols
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Map the specified Unicode codepoints to a particular font. Useful
 | 
						||
#: if you need special rendering for some symbols, such as for
 | 
						||
#: Powerline. Avoids the need for patched fonts. Each Unicode code
 | 
						||
#: point is specified in the form `U+<code point in hexadecimal>`. You
 | 
						||
#: can specify multiple code points, separated by commas and ranges
 | 
						||
#: separated by hyphens. This option can be specified multiple times.
 | 
						||
#: The syntax is::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#:     symbol_map codepoints Font Family Name
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# narrow_symbols
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: E.g. narrow_symbols U+E0A0-U+E0A3,U+E0C0-U+E0C7 1
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Usually, for Private Use Unicode characters and some symbol/dingbat
 | 
						||
#: characters, if the character is followed by one or more spaces,
 | 
						||
#: kitty will use those extra cells to render the character larger, if
 | 
						||
#: the character in the font has a wide aspect ratio. Using this
 | 
						||
#: option you can force kitty to restrict the specified code points to
 | 
						||
#: render in the specified number of cells (defaulting to one cell).
 | 
						||
#: This option can be specified multiple times. The syntax is::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#:     narrow_symbols codepoints [optionally the number of cells]
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# disable_ligatures never
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Choose how you want to handle multi-character ligatures. The
 | 
						||
#: default is to always render them. You can tell kitty to not render
 | 
						||
#: them when the cursor is over them by using cursor to make editing
 | 
						||
#: easier, or have kitty never render them at all by using always, if
 | 
						||
#: you don't like them. The ligature strategy can be set per-window
 | 
						||
#: either using the kitty remote control facility or by defining
 | 
						||
#: shortcuts for it in kitty.conf, for example::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#:     map alt+1 disable_ligatures_in active always
 | 
						||
#:     map alt+2 disable_ligatures_in all never
 | 
						||
#:     map alt+3 disable_ligatures_in tab cursor
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Note that this refers to programming ligatures, typically
 | 
						||
#: implemented using the calt OpenType feature. For disabling general
 | 
						||
#: ligatures, use the font_features option.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# font_features
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: E.g. font_features none
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Choose exactly which OpenType features to enable or disable. Note
 | 
						||
#: that for the main fonts, features can be specified when selecting
 | 
						||
#: the font using the choose-fonts kitten. This setting is useful for
 | 
						||
#: fallback fonts.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Some fonts might have features worthwhile in a terminal. For
 | 
						||
#: example, Fira Code includes a discretionary feature, zero, which in
 | 
						||
#: that font changes the appearance of the zero (0), to make it more
 | 
						||
#: easily distinguishable from Ø. Fira Code also includes other
 | 
						||
#: discretionary features known as Stylistic Sets which have the tags
 | 
						||
#: ss01 through ss20.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: For the exact syntax to use for individual features, see the
 | 
						||
#: HarfBuzz documentation <https://harfbuzz.github.io/harfbuzz-hb-
 | 
						||
#: common.html#hb-feature-from-string>.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Note that this code is indexed by PostScript name, and not the font
 | 
						||
#: family. This allows you to define very precise feature settings;
 | 
						||
#: e.g. you can disable a feature in the italic font but not in the
 | 
						||
#: regular font.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: On Linux, font features are first read from the FontConfig database
 | 
						||
#: and then this option is applied, so they can be configured in a
 | 
						||
#: single, central place.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: To get the PostScript name for a font, use the `fc-scan file.ttf`
 | 
						||
#: command on Linux or the `Font Book tool on macOS
 | 
						||
#: <https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/79875/how-can-i-get-the-
 | 
						||
#: postscript-name-of-a-ttf-font-installed-in-os-x>`__.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Enable alternate zero and oldstyle numerals::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#:     font_features FiraCode-Retina +zero +onum
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Enable only alternate zero in the bold font::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#:     font_features FiraCode-Bold +zero
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Disable the normal ligatures, but keep the calt feature which (in
 | 
						||
#: this font) breaks up monotony::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#:     font_features TT2020StyleB-Regular -liga +calt
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: In conjunction with force_ltr, you may want to disable Arabic
 | 
						||
#: shaping entirely, and only look at their isolated forms if they
 | 
						||
#: show up in a document. You can do this with e.g.::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#:     font_features UnifontMedium +isol -medi -fina -init
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# modify_font
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Modify font characteristics such as the position or thickness of
 | 
						||
#: the underline and strikethrough. The modifications can have the
 | 
						||
#: suffix px for pixels or % for percentage of original value. No
 | 
						||
#: suffix means use pts. For example::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#:     modify_font underline_position -2
 | 
						||
#:     modify_font underline_thickness 150%
 | 
						||
#:     modify_font strikethrough_position 2px
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Additionally, you can modify the size of the cell in which each
 | 
						||
#: font glyph is rendered and the baseline at which the glyph is
 | 
						||
#: placed in the cell. For example::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#:     modify_font cell_width 80%
 | 
						||
#:     modify_font cell_height -2px
 | 
						||
#:     modify_font baseline 3
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Note that modifying the baseline will automatically adjust the
 | 
						||
#: underline and strikethrough positions by the same amount.
 | 
						||
#: Increasing the baseline raises glyphs inside the cell and
 | 
						||
#: decreasing it lowers them. Decreasing the cell size might cause
 | 
						||
#: rendering artifacts, so use with care.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# box_drawing_scale 0.001, 1, 1.5, 2
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The sizes of the lines used for the box drawing Unicode characters.
 | 
						||
#: These values are in pts. They will be scaled by the monitor DPI to
 | 
						||
#: arrive at a pixel value. There must be four values corresponding to
 | 
						||
#: thin, normal, thick, and very thick lines.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# undercurl_style thin-sparse
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The style with which undercurls are rendered. This option takes the
 | 
						||
#: form (thin|thick)-(sparse|dense). Thin and thick control the
 | 
						||
#: thickness of the undercurl. Sparse and dense control how often the
 | 
						||
#: curl oscillates. With sparse the curl will peak once per character,
 | 
						||
#: with dense twice. Changing this option dynamically via reloading
 | 
						||
#: the config or remote control is undefined.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# underline_exclusion 1
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: By default kitty renders gaps in underlines when they overlap with
 | 
						||
#: descenders (the parts of letters below the baseline, such as for y,
 | 
						||
#: q, p etc.). This option controls the thickness of the gaps. It can
 | 
						||
#: be either a unitless number in which case it is a fraction of the
 | 
						||
#: underline thickness as specified in the font or it can have a
 | 
						||
#: suffix of px for pixels or pt for points. Set to zero to disable
 | 
						||
#: the gaps. Changing this option dynamically via reloading the config
 | 
						||
#: or remote control is undefined.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# text_composition_strategy platform
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Control how kitty composites text glyphs onto the background color.
 | 
						||
#: The default value of platform tries for text rendering as close to
 | 
						||
#: "native" for the platform kitty is running on as possible.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: A value of legacy uses the old (pre kitty 0.28) strategy for how
 | 
						||
#: glyphs are composited. This will make dark text on light
 | 
						||
#: backgrounds look thicker and light text on dark backgrounds
 | 
						||
#: thinner. It might also make some text appear like the strokes are
 | 
						||
#: uneven.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: You can fine tune the actual contrast curve used for glyph
 | 
						||
#: composition by specifying up to two space-separated numbers for
 | 
						||
#: this setting.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The first number is the gamma adjustment, which controls the
 | 
						||
#: thickness of dark text on light backgrounds. Increasing the value
 | 
						||
#: will make text appear thicker. The default value for this is 1.0 on
 | 
						||
#: Linux and 1.7 on macOS. Valid values are 0.01 and above. The result
 | 
						||
#: is scaled based on the luminance difference between the background
 | 
						||
#: and the foreground. Dark text on light backgrounds receives the
 | 
						||
#: full impact of the curve while light text on dark backgrounds is
 | 
						||
#: affected very little.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The second number is an additional multiplicative contrast. It is
 | 
						||
#: percentage ranging from 0 to 100. The default value is 0 on Linux
 | 
						||
#: and 30 on macOS.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: If you wish to achieve similar looking thickness in light and dark
 | 
						||
#: themes, a good way to experiment is start by setting the value to
 | 
						||
#: 1.0 0 and use a dark theme. Then adjust the second parameter until
 | 
						||
#: it looks good. Then switch to a light theme and adjust the first
 | 
						||
#: parameter until the perceived thickness matches the dark theme.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# text_fg_override_threshold 0
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: A setting to prevent low contrast between foreground and background
 | 
						||
#: colors. Useful when working with applications that use colors that
 | 
						||
#: do not contrast well with your preferred color scheme. The default
 | 
						||
#: value is 0, which means no color overriding is performed. There are
 | 
						||
#: two modes of operation:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: A value with the suffix ratio represents the minimum accepted
 | 
						||
#: contrast ratio between the foreground and background color.
 | 
						||
#: Possible values range from 0.0 ratio to 21.0 ratio. For example, to
 | 
						||
#: meet WCAG level AA
 | 
						||
#: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Content_Accessibility_Guidelines>
 | 
						||
#: a value of 4.5 ratio can be provided. The algorithm is implemented
 | 
						||
#: using HSLuv <https://www.hsluv.org/> which enables it to change the
 | 
						||
#: perceived lightness of a color just as much as needed without
 | 
						||
#: really changing its hue and saturation.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: A value with the suffix % represents the minimum accepted
 | 
						||
#: difference in luminance between the foreground and background
 | 
						||
#: color, below which kitty will override the foreground color. It is
 | 
						||
#: percentage ranging from 0 % to 100 %. If the difference in
 | 
						||
#: luminance of the foreground and background is below this threshold,
 | 
						||
#: the foreground color will be set to white if the background is dark
 | 
						||
#: or black if the background is light.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: WARNING: Some programs use characters (such as block characters)
 | 
						||
#: for graphics display and may expect to be able to set the
 | 
						||
#: foreground and background to the same color (or similar colors). If
 | 
						||
#: you see unexpected stripes, dots, lines, incorrect color, no color
 | 
						||
#: where you expect color, or any kind of graphic display problem try
 | 
						||
#: setting text_fg_override_threshold to 0 to see if this is the cause
 | 
						||
#: of the problem or consider using the ratio mode of operation
 | 
						||
#: described above instead of the % mode of operation.

#: Text cursor customization {{{
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# cursor #cccccc
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Default text cursor color. If set to the special value none the
 | 
						||
#: cursor will be rendered with a "reverse video" effect. Its color
 | 
						||
#: will be the color of the text in the cell it is over and the text
 | 
						||
#: will be rendered with the background color of the cell. Note that
 | 
						||
#: if the program running in the terminal sets a cursor color, this
 | 
						||
#: takes precedence. Also, the cursor colors are modified if the cell
 | 
						||
#: background and foreground colors have very low contrast. Note that
 | 
						||
#: some themes set this value, so if you want to override it, place
 | 
						||
#: your value after the lines where the theme file is included.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# cursor_text_color #111111
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The color of text under the cursor. If you want it rendered with
 | 
						||
#: the background color of the cell underneath instead, use the
 | 
						||
#: special keyword: `background`. Note that if cursor is set to none
 | 
						||
#: then this option is ignored. Note that some themes set this value,
 | 
						||
#: so if you want to override it, place your value after the lines
 | 
						||
#: where the theme file is included.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# cursor_shape block
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The cursor shape can be one of block, beam, underline. Note that
 | 
						||
#: when reloading the config this will be changed only if the cursor
 | 
						||
#: shape has not been set by the program running in the terminal. This
 | 
						||
#: sets the default cursor shape, applications running in the terminal
 | 
						||
#: can override it. In particular, shell integration
 | 
						||
#: <https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/shell-integration/> in kitty sets
 | 
						||
#: the cursor shape to beam at shell prompts. You can avoid this by
 | 
						||
#: setting shell_integration to no-cursor.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# cursor_shape_unfocused hollow
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Defines the text cursor shape when the OS window is not focused.
 | 
						||
#: The unfocused cursor shape can be one of block, beam, underline,
 | 
						||
#: hollow and unchanged (leave the cursor shape as it is).
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# cursor_beam_thickness 1.5
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The thickness of the beam cursor (in pts).
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# cursor_underline_thickness 2.0
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The thickness of the underline cursor (in pts).
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# cursor_blink_interval -1
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The interval to blink the cursor (in seconds). Set to zero to
 | 
						||
#: disable blinking. Negative values mean use system default. Note
 | 
						||
#: that the minimum interval will be limited to repaint_delay. You can
 | 
						||
#: also animate the cursor blink by specifying an easing function. For
 | 
						||
#: example, setting this to option to 0.5 ease-in-out will cause the
 | 
						||
#: cursor blink to be animated over a second, in the first half of the
 | 
						||
#: second it will go from opaque to transparent and then back again
 | 
						||
#: over the next half. You can specify different easing functions for
 | 
						||
#: the two halves, for example: -1 linear ease-out. kitty supports all
 | 
						||
#: the CSS easing functions <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
 | 
						||
#: US/docs/Web/CSS/easing-function>. Note that turning on animations
 | 
						||
#: uses extra power as it means the screen is redrawn multiple times
 | 
						||
#: per blink interval. See also, cursor_stop_blinking_after.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# cursor_stop_blinking_after 15.0
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Stop blinking cursor after the specified number of seconds of
 | 
						||
#: keyboard inactivity. Set to zero to never stop blinking.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# cursor_trail 0
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Set this to a value larger than zero to enable a "cursor trail"
 | 
						||
#: animation. This is an animation that shows a "trail" following the
 | 
						||
#: movement of the text cursor. It makes it easy to follow large
 | 
						||
#: cursor jumps and makes for a cool visual effect of the cursor
 | 
						||
#: zooming around the screen. The actual value of this option controls
 | 
						||
#: when the animation is triggered. It is a number of milliseconds.
 | 
						||
#: The trail animation only follows cursors that have stayed in their
 | 
						||
#: position for longer than the specified number of milliseconds. This
 | 
						||
#: prevents trails from appearing for cursors that rapidly change
 | 
						||
#: their positions during UI updates in complex applications. See
 | 
						||
#: cursor_trail_decay to control the animation speed and
 | 
						||
#: cursor_trail_start_threshold to control when a cursor trail is
 | 
						||
#: started.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# cursor_trail_decay 0.1 0.4
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Controls the decay times for the cursor trail effect when the
 | 
						||
#: cursor_trail is enabled. This option accepts two positive float
 | 
						||
#: values specifying the fastest and slowest decay times in seconds.
 | 
						||
#: The first value corresponds to the fastest decay time (minimum),
 | 
						||
#: and the second value corresponds to the slowest decay time
 | 
						||
#: (maximum). The second value must be equal to or greater than the
 | 
						||
#: first value. Smaller values result in a faster decay of the cursor
 | 
						||
#: trail. Adjust these values to control how quickly the cursor trail
 | 
						||
#: fades away.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# cursor_trail_start_threshold 2
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Set the distance threshold for starting the cursor trail. This
 | 
						||
#: option accepts a positive integer value that represents the minimum
 | 
						||
#: number of cells the cursor must move before the trail is started.
 | 
						||
#: When the cursor moves less than this threshold, the trail is
 | 
						||
#: skipped, reducing unnecessary cursor trail animation.

# 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
 |

# scrollback_indicator_opacity 1.0
 |

 | 
						||
#: The opacity of the scrollback indicator which is a small colored
 | 
						||
#: rectangle that moves along the right hand side of the window as you
 | 
						||
#: scroll, indicating what fraction you have scrolled. The default is
 |

#: 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
 |

# 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.
 | 
						||
#: Set to a negative value to hide the mouse cursor immediately when
 |

#: much effort.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: By default, once the cursor is hidden, it is immediately unhidden
 | 
						||
#: on any further mouse events.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Two formats are supported:
 | 
						||
#:  - <hide-wait>
 | 
						||
#:  - <hide-wait> <unhide-wait> <unhide-threshold> <scroll-unhide>
 | 
						||
 |

#: To change the unhide behavior, the optional parameters <unhide-
 |

#: wait>, <unhide-threshold>, and <scroll-unhide> may be set.
 |

 | 
						||
#: <unhide-wait>
 |

#:     Waits for the specified number of seconds after mouse events before unhiding the
 | 
						||
#:     mouse cursor. Set to zero to unhide mouse cursor immediately on mouse activity.
 | 
						||
#:     This is useful to prevent the mouse cursor from unhiding on accidental swipes on
 |

#:     the trackpad.
 | 
						||
 |

#: <unhide-threshold>
 | 
						||
#:     Sets the threshold of mouse activity required to unhide the mouse cursor, when
 | 
						||
#:     the <unhide-wait> option is non-zero. When <unhide-wait> is zero, this has no
 | 
						||

 | 
						||
#:     For example, if <unhide-threshold> is 40 and <unhide-wait> is 2.5, when kitty
 |

#:     detects a mouse event, it records the number of mouse events in the next 2.5
 | 
						||
#:     seconds, and checks if that exceeds 40 * 2.5 = 100. If it does, then the mouse
 | 
						||
#:     cursor is unhidden, otherwise nothing happens.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: <scroll-unhide>
 | 
						||
#:     Controls what mouse events may unhide the mouse cursor. If enabled, both scroll

						||
#: legal in URLs are allowed. Additionally, newlines are allowed (but
 | 
						||
#: stripped). This is to accommodate programs such as mutt that add

						||
#: hard line breaks even for continued lines. \n can be added to this
 |

# copy_on_select no
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Copy to clipboard or a private buffer on select. With this set to

#: clipboard, selecting text with the mouse will cause the text to be
 | 
						||
#: copied to clipboard. Useful on platforms such as macOS that do not
 | 
						||
#: have the concept of primary selection. You can instead specify a
 | 
						||
#: name such as a1 to copy to a private kitty buffer. Map a shortcut
 | 
						||
#: with the paste_from_buffer action to paste from this private
 | 
						||
#: buffer. For example::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#:     copy_on_select a1
 | 
						||
#:     map shift+cmd+v paste_from_buffer a1
 |

#: contents of the system clipboard.
 |

 | 
						||
# clear_selection_on_clipboard_loss no

#: selection, clear it. This is primarily useful on platforms such as
 | 
						||
#: Linux where selecting text automatically copies it to a special
 | 
						||
#: "primary selection" clipboard or if you have copy_on_select set to
 | 
						||
#: clipboard.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Note that on macOS the system does not provide notifications when

 | 
						||
#:     in the terminal does not properly handle these.
 | 
						||
#: confirm-if-large
 | 
						||
#:     Confirm the paste if it is very large (larger than 16KB) as pasting
 | 
						||
#:     large amounts of text into shells can be very slow.

 | 
						||
# strip_trailing_spaces never
 |

# visual_bell_duration 0.0
 | 
						||
 |

#: The visual bell duration (in seconds). Flash the screen when a bell
 | 
						||
#: occurs for the specified number of seconds. Set to zero to disable.
 | 
						||
#: The flash is animated, fading in and out over the specified
 | 
						||
#: duration. The easing function used for the fading can be
 | 
						||
#: controlled. For example, 2.0 linear will casuse the flash to fade
 | 
						||
#: in and out linearly. The default if unspecified is to use ease-in-
 | 
						||
#: out which fades slowly at the start, middle and end. You can
 | 
						||
#: specify different easing functions for the fade-in and fade-out
 | 
						||
#: parts, like this: 2.0 ease-in linear. kitty supports all the CSS

#: cell area of the terminal window will have some extra padding on
 | 
						||
#: the sides. You can control how that padding is distributed with
 | 
						||
#: this option. Using a value of center means the cell area will be

#: between zero and one, with zero being fully faded).
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# hide_window_decorations no
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Hide the window decorations (title-bar and window borders) with
 | 
						||
#: yes. On macOS, titlebar-only and titlebar-and-corners can be used
 | 
						||
#: to only hide the titlebar and the rounded corners. Whether this
 | 
						||
#: works and exactly what effect it has depends on the window
 | 
						||
#: manager/operating system. Note that the effects of changing this
 | 
						||
#: option when reloading config are undefined. When using titlebar-
 | 
						||
#: only, it is useful to also set window_margin_width and
 | 
						||
#: placement_strategy to prevent the rounded corners from clipping
 | 
						||
#: text. Or use titlebar-and-corners.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# window_logo_path none
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Path to a logo image. Must be in PNG/JPEG/WEBP/GIF/TIFF/BMP format.
 | 
						||
#: Relative paths are interpreted relative to the kitty config
 | 
						||
#: directory. The logo is displayed in a corner of every kitty window.
 | 
						||
#: The position is controlled by window_logo_position. Individual
 |

#: windows can be configured to have different logos either using the
 | 
						||
#: launch action or the remote control
 |

#: <https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/remote-control/> facility.
 | 
						||
 |

# window_logo_position bottom-right

#: one of: top-left, top, top-right, left, center, right, bottom-left,
 | 
						||
#: bottom, bottom-right.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# window_logo_alpha 0.5
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The amount the logo should be faded into the background. With zero
 | 
						||
#: being fully faded and one being fully opaque.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# window_logo_scale 0
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The percentage (0-100] of the window size to which the logo should
 | 
						||
#: scale. Using a single number means the logo is scaled to that
 | 
						||
#: percentage of the shortest window dimension, while preserving
 | 
						||
#: aspect ratio of the logo image.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Using two numbers means the width and height of the logo are scaled
 | 
						||
#: to the respective percentage of the window's width and height.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Using zero as the percentage disables scaling in that dimension. A
 | 
						||
#: single zero (the default) disables all scaling of the window logo.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# resize_debounce_time 0.1 0.5
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The time to wait (in seconds) before asking the program running in
 | 
						||
#: kitty to resize and redraw the screen during a live resize of the
 | 
						||
#: OS window, when no new resize events have been received, i.e. when
 | 
						||
#: resizing is either paused or finished. On platforms such as macOS,
 | 
						||
#: where the operating system sends events corresponding to the start
 | 
						||
#: and end of a live resize, the second number is used for redraw-
 | 
						||
#: after-pause since kitty can distinguish between a pause and end of
 | 
						||
#: resizing. On such systems the first number is ignored and redraw is
 | 
						||
#: immediate after end of resize. On other systems only the first
 | 
						||
#: number is used so that kitty is "ready" quickly after the end of
 | 
						||
#: resizing, while not also continuously redrawing, to save energy.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# resize_in_steps no
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Resize the OS window in steps as large as the cells, instead of
 | 
						||
#: with the usual pixel accuracy. Combined with initial_window_width
 | 
						||
#: and initial_window_height in number of cells, this option can be
 | 
						||
#: used to keep the margins as small as possible when resizing the OS
 | 
						||
#: window. Note that this does not currently work on Wayland.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# visual_window_select_characters 1234567890ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The list of characters for visual window selection. For example,
 | 
						||
#: for selecting a window to focus on with focus_visible_window. The
 | 
						||
#: value should be a series of unique numbers or alphabets, case
 | 
						||
#: insensitive, from the set 0-9A-Z\-=[];',./\\`. Specify your
 | 
						||
#: preference as a string of characters.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# confirm_os_window_close -1
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Ask for confirmation when closing an OS window or a tab with at
 | 
						||
#: least this number of kitty windows in it by window manager (e.g.
 | 
						||
#: clicking the window close button or pressing the operating system
 | 
						||
#: shortcut to close windows) or by the close_tab action. A value of
 | 
						||
#: zero disables confirmation. This confirmation also applies to
 | 
						||
#: requests to quit the entire application (all OS windows, via the
 | 
						||
#: quit action). Negative values are converted to positive ones,
 | 
						||
#: however, with shell_integration enabled, using negative values
 | 
						||
#: means windows sitting at a shell prompt are not counted, only
 | 
						||
#: windows where some command is currently running. You can also have
 | 
						||
#: backgrounded jobs prevent closing, by adding count-background to
 | 
						||
#: the setting, for example: -1 count-background. Note that if you
 | 
						||
#: want confirmation when closing individual windows, you can map the
 | 
						||
#: close_window_with_confirmation action.

background_opacity 0.8 
 |

 | 
						||
#: supported by the OS (for instance, when using a compositor under

#: background, so that things like the status bar in vim, powerline

#: theme with a background color in your editor, it will not be
 |

#: rendered as transparent. Instead you should change the default
 | 
						||
#: background color in your kitty config and not use a background

 | 
						||
#: Only takes effect when background_opacity is less than one. On
 | 
						||
#: macOS, this will also control the blur radius (amount of blurring).
 |

 | 
						||
#: rendered semi-transparent using the specified opacity.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Useful in more complex UIs like editors where you could want more
 | 
						||
#: than a single background color to be rendered as transparent, for
 |

 | 
						||
#:     # filter out notification from vim except for ones about updates, (?i)

 | 
						||
#:     # filter out all notifications
 | 
						||
#:     filter_notification all
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The field app is the name of the application sending the
 | 
						||
#: notification and type is the type of the notification. Not all
 | 
						||
#: applications will send these fields, so you can also match on the
 | 
						||
#: title and body of the notification text. More sophisticated
 | 
						||
#: programmatic filtering and custom actions on notifications can be
 | 
						||
#: done by creating a notifications.py file in the kitty config
 |

# exe_search_path
 |

 | 
						||
#: Control where kitty finds the programs to run. The default search
 |

#: order is: First search the system wide PATH, then ~/.local/bin and
 | 
						||
#: ~/bin. If still not found, the PATH defined in the login shell
 | 
						||
#: after sourcing all its startup files is tried. Finally, if present,
 | 
						||
#: the PATH specified by the env option is tried.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: This option allows you to prepend, append, or remove paths from
 | 
						||
#: this search order. It can be specified multiple times for multiple
 | 
						||
#: paths. A simple path will be prepended to the search order. A path
 | 
						||
#: that starts with the + sign will be append to the search order,
 | 
						||
#: after ~/bin above. A path that starts with the - sign will be
 | 
						||
#: removed from the entire search order. For example::
 | 
						||
 |

# clipboard_control write-clipboard write-primary read-clipboard-ask read-primary-ask
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Allow programs running in kitty to read and write from the
 | 
						||
#: clipboard. You can control exactly which actions are allowed. The
 | 
						||
#: possible actions are: write-clipboard, read-clipboard, write-
 | 
						||
#: primary, read-primary, read-clipboard-ask, read-primary-ask. The
 | 
						||
#: default is to allow writing to the clipboard and primary selection
 | 
						||
#: and to ask for permission when a program tries to read from the
 | 
						||
#: clipboard. Note that disabling the read confirmation is a security
 | 
						||
#: risk as it means that any program, even the ones running on a
 | 
						||
#: remote server via SSH can read your clipboard. See also
 | 
						||
#: clipboard_max_size.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# clipboard_max_size 512
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The maximum size (in MB) of data from programs running in kitty
 | 
						||
#: that will be stored for writing to the system clipboard. A value of
 | 
						||
#: zero means no size limit is applied. See also clipboard_control.
 |

 | 
						||
# file_transfer_confirmation_bypass
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The password that can be supplied to the file transfer kitten
 | 
						||
#: <https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/kittens/transfer/> to skip the
 | 
						||
#: transfer confirmation prompt. This should only be used when
 | 
						||
#: initiating transfers from trusted computers, over trusted networks
 | 
						||
#: or encrypted transports, as it allows any programs running on the
 | 
						||
#: remote machine to read/write to the local filesystem, without
 | 
						||
#: permission.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# allow_hyperlinks yes
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Process hyperlink escape sequences (OSC 8). If disabled OSC 8
 | 
						||
#: escape sequences are ignored. Otherwise they become clickable
 | 
						||
#: links, that you can click with the mouse or by using the hints
 | 
						||
#: kitten <https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/kittens/hints/>. The
 |

						||
# shell_integration enabled
 |

 | 
						||
#: Enable shell integration on supported shells. This enables features
 |

#: previous command in a pager, etc. on supported shells. Set to
 | 
						||
#: disabled to turn off shell integration, completely. It is also

#: windows to be created. The canonical example is clone-in-kitty
 | 
						||
#: <https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/shell-integration/#clone-shell>.
 | 
						||
#: By default, kitty will ask for permission for each clone request.
 | 
						||
#: Allowing cloning unconditionally gives programs running in the
 |

#: the newly cloned window. The supported strategies are:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: venv
 | 
						||
#:     Source the file $VIRTUAL_ENV/bin/activate. This is used by the
 | 
						||
#:     Python stdlib venv module and allows cloning venvs automatically.
 | 
						||

# notify_on_cmd_finish never
 | 
						||
 |

#: Show a desktop notification when a long-running command finishes
 | 
						||
#: (needs shell_integration). The possible values are:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: never
 | 
						||
#:     Never send a notification.
 | 
						||
 |

#: unfocused
 |

#:     Only send a notification when the window does not have keyboard focus.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: invisible
 | 
						||
#:     Only send a notification when the window both is unfocused and not visible
 | 
						||
#:     to the user, for example, because it is in an inactive tab or its OS window
 | 
						||
#:     is not currently visible (on platforms that support OS window visibility querying
 | 
						||
#:     this considers an OS Window visible iff it is active).
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: always
 | 
						||
#:     Always send a notification, regardless of window state.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: There are two optional arguments:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: First, the minimum duration for what is considered a long running
 | 
						||
#: command. The default is 5 seconds. Specify a second argument to set
 | 
						||
#: the duration. For example: invisible 15. Do not set the value too
 | 
						||
#: small, otherwise a command that launches a new OS Window and exits
 | 
						||
#: will spam a notification.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Second, the action to perform. The default is notify. The possible
 | 
						||
#: values are:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: notify
 | 
						||
#:     Send a desktop notification. The subsequent arguments are optional and specify when
 | 
						||
#:     the notification is automatically cleared. The set of possible events when the notification is
 | 
						||
#:     cleared are: focus and next. focus means that when the notification
 | 
						||
#:     policy is unfocused or invisible the notification is automatically cleared
 | 
						||
#:     when the window regains focus. The value of next means that the previous notification
 | 
						||
#:     is cleared when the next notification is shown. The default when no arguments are specified
 | 
						||
#:     is: focus next.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: bell
 | 
						||
#:     Ring the terminal bell.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: command
 | 
						||
#:     Run a custom command. All subsequent arguments are the cmdline to run.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Some more examples::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#:     # Send a notification when a command takes more than 5 seconds in an unfocused window
 | 
						||
#:     notify_on_cmd_finish unfocused

# 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 is 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. Changing this option by reloading the config will only affect
 | 
						||
#: newly created windows.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# terminfo_type path
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The value of the TERMINFO environment variable to set. This
 | 
						||
#: variable is used by programs running in the terminal to search for
 | 
						||
#: terminfo databases. The default value of path causes kitty to set
 | 
						||
#: it to a filesystem location containing the kitty terminfo database.
 | 
						||
#: A value of direct means put the entire database into the env var
 | 
						||
#: directly. This can be useful when connecting to containers, for
 | 
						||
#: example. But, note that not all software supports this. A value of
 | 
						||
#: none means do not touch the variable.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# forward_stdio no
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Forward STDOUT and STDERR of the kitty process to child processes.
 | 
						||
#: This is useful for debugging as it allows child processes to print
 | 
						||
#: to kitty's STDOUT directly. For example, echo hello world
 | 
						||
#: >&$KITTY_STDIO_FORWARDED in a shell will print to the parent
 | 
						||
#: kitty's STDOUT. Sets the KITTY_STDIO_FORWARDED=fdnum environment
 | 
						||
#: variable so child processes know about the forwarding. Note that on
 | 
						||
#: macOS this prevents the shell from being run via the login utility
 | 
						||
#: so getlogin() will not work in programs run in this session.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# menu_map
 | 
						||
 |

 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#:    menu_map global "Actions::Launch something special" launch --hold --type=os-window sh -c "echo hello world"
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: This will create a menu entry named "Launch something special" in

# wayland_titlebar_color system
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: The color of the kitty window's titlebar on Wayland systems with
 |

 | 
						||
#: means to use the default system colors, a value of background means
 |

						||
#: and finally you can use an arbitrary color, such as #12af59 or red.
 |

# macos_titlebar_color system
 | 
						||
 |

#: also be used to set it explicitly. A value of background means to
 | 
						||
#: use the background color of the currently active window and finally
 | 
						||
#: you can use an arbitrary color, such as #12af59 or red. WARNING:
 | 
						||
#: This option works by using a hack when arbitrary color (or
 | 
						||
#: background) is configured, as there is no proper Cocoa API for it.
 | 
						||
#: It sets the background color of the entire window and makes the

# macos_option_as_alt no
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Use the Option key as an Alt key on macOS. With this set to no,
 | 
						||
#: kitty will use the macOS native Option+Key to enter Unicode
 | 
						||
#: character behavior. This will break any Alt+Key keyboard shortcuts
 | 
						||
#: in your terminal programs, but you can use the macOS Unicode input
 | 
						||
#: technique. You can use the values: left, right or both to use only
 | 
						||
#: the left, right or both Option keys as Alt, instead. Note that
 | 
						||
#: kitty itself always treats Option the same as Alt. This means you
 | 
						||
#: cannot use this option to configure different kitty shortcuts for
 | 
						||
#: Option+Key vs. Alt+Key. Also, any kitty shortcuts using
 | 
						||
#: Option/Alt+Key will take priority, so that any such key presses
 | 
						||
#: will not be passed to terminal programs running inside kitty.
 |

 | 
						||
# macos_quit_when_last_window_closed no
 |

#: Have kitty quit when all the top-level windows are closed on macOS.
 | 
						||
#: By default, kitty will stay running, even with no open windows, as
 |

#: is the expected behavior on macOS.
 | 
						||

 |

#::  You can create shortcuts to clear/reset the terminal. For
 | 
						||
#::  example::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::      # Reset the terminal
 | 
						||
#::      map f1 clear_terminal reset active
 | 
						||
#::      # Clear the terminal screen by erasing all contents
 | 
						||
#::      map f1 clear_terminal clear active
 | 
						||
#::      # Clear the terminal scrollback by erasing it
 | 
						||
#::      map f1 clear_terminal scrollback active
 | 
						||
#::      # Scroll the contents of the screen into the scrollback
 | 
						||
#::      map f1 clear_terminal scroll active
 | 
						||
#::      # Clear everything on screen up to the line with the cursor or the start of the current prompt (needs shell integration)
 | 
						||
#::      map f1 clear_terminal to_cursor active
 | 
						||
#::      # Same as above except cleared lines are moved into scrollback
 | 
						||
#::      map f1 clear_terminal to_cursor_scroll active
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  If you want to operate on all kitty windows instead of just the
 | 
						||
#::  current one, use all instead of active.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  Some useful functions that can be defined in the shell rc files
 | 
						||
#::  to perform various kinds of clearing of the current window:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  .. code-block:: sh
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::      clear-only-screen() {
 | 
						||
#::          printf "\e[H\e[2J"
 | 
						||
#::      }
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::      clear-screen-and-scrollback() {
 | 
						||
#::          printf "\e[H\e[3J"
 | 
						||
#::      }
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::      clear-screen-saving-contents-in-scrollback() {
 | 
						||
#::          printf "\e[H\e[22J"
 | 
						||
#::      }
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  For instance, using these escape codes, it is possible to remap
 | 
						||
#::  Ctrl+L to both scroll the current screen contents into the
 | 
						||
#::  scrollback buffer and clear the screen, instead of just clearing
 | 
						||
#::  the screen. For ZSH, in ~/.zshrc, add:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  .. code-block:: zsh
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::      ctrl_l() {
 | 
						||
#::          builtin print -rn -- $'\r\e[0J\e[H\e[22J' >"$TTY"
 | 
						||
#::          builtin zle .reset-prompt
 | 
						||
#::          builtin zle -R
 | 
						||
#::      }
 | 
						||
#::      zle -N ctrl_l
 | 
						||
#::      bindkey '^l' ctrl_l
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  Alternatively, you can just add map ctrl+l clear_terminal
 | 
						||
#::  to_cursor_scroll active to kitty.conf which works with no changes
 | 
						||
#::  to the shell rc files, but only clears up to the prompt, it does
 | 
						||
#::  not clear any text at the prompt itself.
 |

# map cmd+k clear_terminal to_cursor active
 |

#: Reload kitty.conf
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# map kitty_mod+f5 load_config_file
 | 
						||
# map ctrl+cmd+,   load_config_file
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  Reload kitty.conf, applying any changes since the last time it
 | 
						||
#::  was loaded. Note that a handful of options cannot be dynamically
 | 
						||
#::  changed and require a full restart of kitty. Particularly, when
 | 
						||
#::  changing shortcuts for actions located on the macOS global menu
 | 
						||
#::  bar, a full restart is needed. You can also map a keybinding to
 | 
						||
#::  load a different config file, for example::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::      map f5 load_config /path/to/alternative/kitty.conf
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  Note that all options from the original kitty.conf are discarded,
 | 
						||
#::  in other words the new configuration *replace* the old ones.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Debug kitty configuration
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
# map kitty_mod+f6 debug_config
 | 
						||
# map opt+cmd+,    debug_config
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  Show details about exactly what configuration kitty is running
 | 
						||
#::  with and its host environment. Useful for debugging issues.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#: Send arbitrary text on key presses
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  E.g. map ctrl+shift+alt+h send_text all Hello World
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  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 decodes ANSI C escapes
 | 
						||
#::  <https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/ANSI_002dC-
 | 
						||
#::  Quoting.html> so you can use escapes like \e to send control
 | 
						||
#::  codes or \u21fb to send Unicode characters (or you can just input
 | 
						||
#::  the Unicode characters directly as UTF-8 text). You can use
 | 
						||
#::  `kitten show-key` to get the key escape codes you want to
 | 
						||
#::  emulate.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  The first argument to send_text is the keyboard modes in which to
 | 
						||
#::  activate the shortcut. The possible values are normal,
 | 
						||
#::  application, kitty or a comma separated combination of them. The
 | 
						||
#::  modes normal and application refer to the DECCKM cursor key mode
 | 
						||
#::  for terminals, and kitty refers to the kitty extended keyboard
 | 
						||
#::  protocol. The special value all means all of them.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::  Some more examples::
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
#::      # Output a word and move the cursor to the start of the line (like typing and pressing Home)
 | 
						||
#::      map ctrl+alt+a send_text normal Word\e[H
 | 
						||
#::      map ctrl+alt+a send_text application Word\eOH
 | 
						||
#::      # Run a command at a shell prompt (like typing the command and pressing Enter)
 | 
						||
#::      map ctrl+alt+a send_text normal,application some command with arguments\r
