kitty.conf
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
.. highlight:: conf
|
|
|
|
|kitty| is highly customizable, everything from keyboard shortcuts, to
|
|
rendering frames-per-second. See below for an overview of all customization
|
|
possibilities.
|
|
|
|
You can open the config file within kitty by pressing :sc:`edit_config_file` (:kbd:`⌘+,` on macOS).
|
|
You can reload the config file within kitty by pressing
|
|
:sc:`reload_config_file` (:kbd:`⌃+⌘+,` on macOS) or sending kitty the ``SIGUSR1`` signal.
|
|
You can also display the current configuration by pressing :sc:`debug_config`
|
|
(:kbd:`⌥+⌘+,` on macOS).
|
|
|
|
.. _confloc:
|
|
|
|
|kitty| looks for a config file in the OS config directories (usually
|
|
:file:`~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf`) but you can pass a specific path via the
|
|
:option:`kitty --config` option or use the ``KITTY_CONFIG_DIRECTORY``
|
|
environment variable. See the :option:`kitty --config` option for full details.
|
|
|
|
Comments can be added to the config file as lines starting with the ``#``
|
|
character. This works only if the ``#`` character is the first character
|
|
in the line.
|
|
|
|
You can include secondary config files via the :code:`include` directive. If
|
|
you use a relative path for :code:`include`, it is resolved with respect to the
|
|
location of the current config file. Note that environment variables are
|
|
expanded, so :code:`${USER}.conf` becomes :file:`name.conf` if
|
|
:code:`USER=name`. Also, you can use :code:`globinclude` to include files
|
|
matching a shell glob pattern. For example::
|
|
|
|
include other.conf
|
|
globinclude kitty.d/**/*.conf
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. note:: Syntax highlighting for :file:`kitty.conf` in vim is available via
|
|
`vim-kitty <https://github.com/fladson/vim-kitty>`_.

Sample kitty.conf
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
.. only:: html
|
|
|
|
You can download a sample :file:`kitty.conf` file with all default settings and
|
|
comments describing each setting by clicking: :download:`sample kitty.conf
|
|
</generated/conf/kitty.conf>`.
|
|
|
|
.. only:: man
|
|
|
|
You can edit a fully commented sample kitty.conf by pressing the
|
|
:sc:`edit_config_file` shortcut in kitty. This will generate a config
|
|
file with full documentation and all settings commented out. If you
|
|
have a pre-existing kitty.conf, then that will be used instead, delete
|
|
it to see the sample file.
