Summary: Cross-platform, fast, feature-rich, GPU based terminal
Description: 
- Offloads rendering to the GPU for lower system load and buttery
  smooth scrolling. Uses threaded rendering to minimize input latency.

- Supports all modern terminal features: graphics (images), unicode,
  true-color, OpenType ligatures, mouse protocol, hyperlinks, focus
  tracking, bracketed paste and several new terminal protocol
  extensions.

- Supports tiling multiple terminal windows side by side in different
  layouts without needing to use an extra program like tmux

- Can be controlled from scripts or the shell prompt, even over SSH.

- Has a framework for Kittens, small terminal programs that can be
  used to extend kitty's functionality. For example, they are used for
  Unicode input, Hints and Side-by-side diff.

- Supports startup sessions which allow you to specify the window/tab
  layout, working directories and programs to run on startup.

- Cross-platform: kitty works on Linux and macOS, but because it uses
  only OpenGL for rendering, it should be trivial to port to other
  Unix-like platforms.

- Allows you to open the scrollback buffer in a separate window using
  arbitrary programs of your choice. This is useful for browsing the
  history comfortably in a pager or editor.

- Has multiple copy/paste buffers, like vim.
