|

|
||||
screen or as the desktop wallpaper, that shows the output from an arbitrary
|
||||
terminal program.
|
||||
Draw the desktop wallpaper or docks and panels using arbitrary
|
||||
terminal programs, For example, have `btop
|
||||

Make a Quake like quick access terminal
|

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|

.. versionadded:: 0.42.0
|

Support for quake mode, works only on macOS and Wayland, except for GNOME.
|
||||
|
||||
This kitten can be used to make a quick access terminal, that appears and
|
||||
disappears at a key press. To do so use the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: sh
|
||||
|
||||
kitten quick-access-terminal
|
||||
|
||||
Run this command in a terminal, and a quick access kitty window will show up at
|
||||
the top of your screen. Run it again, and the window will be hidden.
|
||||
|
||||
Simply bind this command to some key press in your window manager or desktop
|
||||
environment settings and then you have a quick access terminal at a single key press.
|
||||
You can use the various panel options to configure the size, appearance and
|
||||
position of the quick access panel. In particular, the :option:`kitty +kitten panel --config` and
|
||||
:option:`kitty +kitten panel --override` options can be used to theme the terminal appropriately,
|
||||
making it look different from regular kitty terminal instances.
