Interesting read, thanks for posting. I hadn’t considered how predictive text works in a terminal emulator and its cool to see how that works as well as getting a better understanding of child processes and what commands would/wouldn’t start one

This is a great deep dive! I am curious how difficult/slow it is to extend the modern xterm interface. For example, I saw that some terminals now support squiggly underlines for errors. What would it take to build a terminal (and associated interface) that supported things like text size? (Of course it would break a lot of applications that treat the screen as a two dimensional grid)

Not sure, but i would guess you see your files
