decided against using kitty's diff feature due to using the existing
colors of the shell being non-trivial.

kitty

kitty is a new terminal emulator built from the ground up to support all modern terminal features.

Use Cases

kitty can be used to:

  • View images in the terminal, without the visual inconsistencies of w3m
  • Change background opacity on the fly (without opening a new terminal)
  • View emoji and other special symbols in the terminal
  • View all icon fonts in the terminal
  • Change the entire color scheme on the fly (both the terminal and kitty itself)
  • Display over 16 million different colors at the same time (also known as 24-bit true color support)

You should not use kitty if:
