* Supports all modern terminal features: link:graphics-protocol.asciidoc[graphics (images)], unicode,

true-color, OpenType ligatures, mouse protocol, focus tracking, bracketed paste and so on.
|

* Supports tiling multiple terminal windows side by side in different

layouts without needing to use an extra program like tmux

Really, the correct solution for this is to convince the OpenSSH maintainers to have ssh do this

automatically when connecting to a server.

== A tribute
|
||||
|
||||
While over the decades I am sure many people have contributed to the
|
||||
development of the terminal emulator space, there is one individual in
|
||||
particular I would like to thank. link:http://invisible-island.net[Thomas E.
|
||||
Dickey], the creator of xterm. xterm is the most comprehensive and
|
||||
feature-rich terminal emulator I have had the pleasure of using. As I worked on
|
||||
kitty, I ran headlong into more and more gnarly corners of terminal behavior.
|
||||
On all those occasions, either the excellent documentation at
|
||||
link:http://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs/ctlseqs.html[xterm-ctlseqs] or
|
||||
investigating the behavior and code of xterm or vttest were invaluable tools to
|
||||
aid my understanding.
|
||||
|
||||
My achievements, if any, in developing kitty would not have been possible without
|
||||
his prior work and the generous sharing of knowledge accumulated over decades.
|
||||
|
||||
Thank you.
