Yeah, this is kindof ticking all my checkboxes for what I’d want in a terminal emulator. I’m an st user currently, but I might have to give wayst a try. It’s not often a piece of software comes along and entices me like this one.
(And yeah, I see the notice about it being alpha quality, but I suspect I’ll be able to get a feel for it even if I can’t really make it my daily driver yet.)
Also, I didn’t list the terminal image protocol thing among what attracts me about it. But I’ve never had that before. Who knows. Maybe wayst will convince me that’s a must-have feature in terminal emulators.
