I've tried Ghostty and it's great, but Kitty's hints mode[1] is the one feature keeping me from switching from Kitty to Ghostty. There are quite a few discussions around this and similar features in the Ghosstty-org/ghostty Discussions[2] which I follow. Most of them are references from ghostty-org/ghostty/discussions/2394[3]. Maybe now that Ghostty has finished implementing Kitty graphics hints will be next .

Yeah this is what is keeping me from using ghostty. Unfortunately I think that discussion is dead and no one agrees on the design of the three or so separate parts. I maintain a fork with quick select for my own purposes but I can’t use it at work.

		BTW here is my fork: https://github.com/Grazfather/ghostty/tree/quick_select `link = copy_to_clipboard=[0-9a-f]{7,40} link = open=https?://[a-zA-Z0-9.]+[-a-zA-Z0-9()@:%_\\+.~#?&//=]* keybind = ctrl+o>y=quick_select` Far from perfect. No way to bind to specific action:regex pair, so `ctrl+o` then `y` will show hints for both urls, which it'll try to open, and git hashes, which it'll copy to the clipboard.

How have I not heard of hints mode before, that is amazing. Thanks for pointing it out I need to go remember some new hotkeys now.

Hints Mode, yummy. That would be nice.

See like something that can be handled by the multiplexer?
