Why should this be included in the repository?
While similar to kitty: GPU Accelerated, customizable, image support, multiplexing, etc...
Wexterm stands out by:
Built with Rust
Supports SSH session persistence natively (with a little configuration) unlike kitty.
Configuration scripts are done via lua and I'd rather not have to translate my entire config to something else.
Extensive and far more readable online documentation.
Are we allowed to redistribute it?
MIT, OFL-1.1
