Как я превратил статус-лайн Claude Code в тренажёр ПДД за 60 строк bash

Строка внизу терминала Claude Code показывает модель, ветку и проценты контекста. Я на неё смотрю сотни раз в день, пока агент думает. В какой-то момент стало жалко: такое внимание, а тратится на информацию, нужную дай бог раз в час. Заменил их на билеты ПДД и очередь непрочитанных статей. Ниже, как это устроено и что ещё туда кладут люди.

#TIL that #Alacritty (the terminal) has a daemon mode.

I put this in my ~/.xsession:

export ALACRITTY_SOCKET=/tmp/rld/alacritty-socket
[ -e "$ALACRITTY_SOCKET" ] && rm $ALACRITTY_SOCKET
alacritty --daemon --socket $ALACRITTY_SOCKET &

and this in my ~/.ctwmrc:

menu "NetBSD"
{
    "NetBSD"			f.title
    ""				f.separator
    #" Terminal"			!"uxterm &"
    " uxterm"			!"uxterm -ls &"
	" lxterminal"       !"lxterminal -l &"
	" Alacritty"        !"alacritty msg create-window &"
    ""				f.separator
(...)
#
# "evilwm" style keyboard shortcuts
#

# it is useful to be able to spawn a terminal without clicking.
"Return" = mod4     : all : !"alacritty msg create-window &"

Tinted — то, из‑за чего ты захочешь использовать терминал

Всем привет! Меня зовут Илья, я frontend‑разработчик. Но сегодня хочу поговорить не о JavaScript, а о терминале. Несмотря на то, что я уже много лет работаю разработчиком, активно пользоваться терминалом я начал всего около года назад. До этого терминал для меня был просто местом, где запускается сборка проекта, немного Git и иногда еще пара команд. Думаю, у многих так же. Обычно мысли о терминале вызывают ступор. Кажется, что это что‑то непонятное, черно‑зеленое и предназначенное только для «настоящих программистов», и на практике большинство ограничивается npm run dev , git status и на этом все. В этом гайде я хочу показать, как можно превратить терминал в красивую и удобную среду разработки, которая не уступает IDEA и другим редакторам. Сразу оговорюсь: речь пойдет исключительно о терминале, а не о NeoVim . NeoVim — это отдельная большая тема.

Decided to add scroll velocity to #Alacritty as a nice QoL improvement for #linuxmobile :

https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/pull/9008

Hopefully this should help scrolling through big terminal backlogs without access to a mouse.

#rust #linux

Support in other applications is spotty: The #alacritty terminal emulator accepts input from multiple seats, #kitty doesn't.

You can kinda browse the web together using #firefox, but only if you start it after the seats have been set up. #chromium doesn't seem to support multiple seats at all.

I think writing end-user applications with great multi-seat support (or patching existing ones) is currently the lowest-hanging fruit!

I’m going back to #Yakuake as my main #terminal app. For a longish while it had problems with global shortcut keys under #Wayland meaning it could only be activated if it already had the focus, but now everything seems to be all right again. Farewell #Alacritty, you are an excellent terminal emulator, but Yakuake is just always “there” at my fingertip. #KDEPlasma #KDE #FLOSS #Linux

I've always been too afraid of tiling window managers and also too lazy to learn new behaviors. I've tried it many times but I failed again and again because of my laziness.

Yesterday I've installed #herbstluftwm on #Xubuntu on a low end Fujitsu U727 notebook and played around for while with the configuration. Well, I think I fell in love this time. 😍 Very smooth! And I think replacing xterm with #alacritty was also a good idea.

Is there anything I should definitely try?

#windowmanager #tilingwindowmanager #linux

Found this TODO list for #Alacritty on an old drive today:

- reduce cell storage size (zerowidth)
- Fix box drawing
- Synchronized updates
- Fix keybindings/VirtualKeyCodes
- Use proc_pidinfo for SpawnNewInstance on macOS
- Blinking cursor
- Rework configuration
- New VSync / Frame scheduling on macOS/Windows/X11
- website
- Tmux margins?
- Regex URLs?
-> Different launchers for different regexes?

Nice to see that all of them (other than tmux margins) have been implemented.

Normally I prefer using dark themes. When working on the terrace indeed light themes show better contrast. I've created a script that toggles dark/light mode in #alacritty and #kde / #plasma : https://gist.github.com/sarmbruster/41ecce95e96568c2a26105d93333a746

Just in case you might find that useful. #linux

One of my favorite featues of #Alacritty is how it allows you to shrink its windows to any size, which allows you to use an Alacritty window as a ruler...

наконец-то нормальные картинки в нормальном терминале, как же хорошо когда есть #guix

Just saw that they open sourced warp (the terminal that turned into LLM slop) and decided to look at some of the remaining terminal emulation pieces.

There's some *interesting* similarities in the terminal code I've looked at so far:

Warp:
https://github.com/warpdotdev/warp/blob/master/crates/warp_terminal/src/model/ansi/control_sequence_parameters.rs#L15

Alacritty:
https://github.com/alacritty/vte/blob/master/src/ansi.rs#L819

Interesting how quickly an Apache (and in parts MIT) license can turn into AGPL.

Alacritty 0.17: aggiornamenti TOML 1.1 e nuove opzioni per Wayland

https://yoota.it/alacritty-0-17-aggiornamenti-toml-1-1-e-nuove-opzioni-per-wayland/

Just released version 0.17.0 of Alacritty:
https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/releases/tag/v0.17.0

My personal highlight is the improvements to focus tracking for touch devices, which is very useful on Linux phones.

#alacritty #rust

Alacritty Contributors released #Alacritty version 0.17.0. https://alacritty.org/

Release Candidate 1 of Alacritty 0.17.0 is now available for testing:

Moved from #alacritty to #kitty this week. But I really needed a better icon.
Picked the white one. 😺https://github.com/DinkDonk/kitty-icon

@jnunemaker I see no mention of #Alacritty here. I switched to it form iTerm2 (which I had been sponsoring and using for years and years) when iTerm2 introduced AI features.

even (Free)BSD can be stylish with Hyprland

#freebsd #hyprland #waybar #alacritty

@ruralocity @mitchellh after one week of usage I can tell I'm not going back to #alacritty, I will keep myself using #ghostty for the foreseeable future.

I've been told your #Rails leader uses #Alacritty as his terminal emulator - part of their Linux "distribution"...

That above has accelerated my _need_ to move to something else since I had some other issues - besides being kind-of-slow in my environment...

So, starting today I'm changing to #Ghostty, by @mitchellh

https://ghostty.org

Ghostty is neat, and works perfectly with my current setup: #tmux + #ViM on both, macOS and Linux.

Graphical apps like #Alacritty now works, it just needs something called #NixGL installed, and then you have to run the application from the terminal with nixGL, example:

nixGL alacritty

~/.nix-profile/share/applications/Alacritty.desktop
