Features

  • Background Image Selector

    Uses wezterm.read_dir to scan the backdrops directory for images.

    See: key bindings for usage

  • GPU Adapter Selector

    💡 Only works if the front_end option is set to WebGpu.

    A small utility to select the best GPU + Adapter (graphics API) combo for your machine.

    GPU + Adapter combo is selected based on the following criteria:

    1. Best GPU available

      Discrete > Integrated > Other (for wgpu's OpenGl implementation on Discrete GPU) > Cpu

    2. Best graphics API available (based off my very scientific scroll a big log file in Neovim test 😁)

      💡
      The available graphics API choices change based on your OS.
      These options correspond to the APIs the wgpu crate (which powers WezTerm's gui in WebGpu mode)
      currenly has support implemented for.
      See: https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu#supported-platforms for more info

      • Windows: Dx12 > Vulkan > OpenGl
      • Linux: Vulkan > OpenGl
      • Mac: Metal

All Key Binbdings

Most of the key bindings revolve around a SUPER and SUPER_REV(super reversed) keys.

  • On MacOs:
    • SUPER ⇨ Super
    • SUPER_REV ⇨ Super+Ctrl
  • On Windows and Linux
    • SUPER ⇨ Alt
    • SUPER_REV ⇨ Alt+Ctrl

To avoid confusion when switching between different OS and to avoid conflicting
with OS's built-in keyboard shortcuts.

  • On all platforms: LEADER ⇨ SUPER_REV+Space
