@bugaevc@mastodon.technology this seems overcomplicated, I'd much rather have something like Acme or Plan 9's rio shells and build these things on top of that
@grainloom @bugaevc Both of you are not contradicting each other there :)
@ckeen @bugaevc@mastodon.technology I mean, it looks cool but uuugh, I hope it doesn't end up as its own OS and will integrate with the rest of the system
otherwise this just looks like ZSH with some GTK/Qt added
@ckeen @bugaevc@mastodon.technology idk, I like a lot of the ideas in theory but if it's not as portable and modular as what we currently have, I don't see myself using it anytime soon
i'm not against making UIs better but I'm not sure how I feel about these ideas
how does it compare to what came before? how does it compare to Emacs?
None of this is portable in any way. That's why we are still stuck with what we have. Every wanted to know how the graphical shells change their title? There are some escape sequences for that. Icky stuff...
