Kitty is a feature-rich, cross-platform terminal that offers fast performance through GPU-based processing. This release features several enhancements, including the ability to dock windows to edges of other windows or tabs, saving the application's state upon logout or shutdown, and restoring it upon next start. Kitty now supports custom shaders for graphical effects, improved performance through various optimizations, and a new drag and drop feature for seamless file transfer between kitty and GUI programs.
Additionally, kitty introduces support for vertical tabs, smooth scrolling with momentum, and resizable windows with mouse support. The application also includes a new keyboard-based file selector and a scrollbar for easy scrollback navigation. Kitty now offers a Quake-like translucent floating terminal window and pioneers multiple sized text, allowing for more efficient terminal program rendering.
