From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I installed it yesterday, I'm using kitty as default one, and noticed its just better in displaying colors. They kinda have a bit of more depth there. Any other cool uses of wezterm that you might recommend? Thanks!
Another kitty user here. Sounds like I'll have to checkout wezterm..
Sorry for the late response...
It has a bunch of useful features but the one I use all the time is quick search (CS-Space). It searches for things (URLs, hashes, file paths) and marks them with a one or two letter shortcut. If you type the shortcut it copies the string onto your clipboard, if you enter the shortcut in caps it copies and also automatically pastes it. And you can define your own quick search strings, anything you can describe with a regular expression.
Oh that is sweet, I'll look into it. Thanks!
