Hi! I really like this terminal. Are there any plans to get it into Arch Linux official repositories? After using gentoo for a while, I'm a bit allergic to compiling updated
<gustafla>
I see. Glad to hear it's possible. Meanwhile someone (me if I really wanted to bother) could set up a foot-bin AUR package. Unless your optimizations also include -march=native?
<gustafla>
But yeah thanks for your work!
<dnkl>
gustafla: no -match-native. It uses makepgs CFLAGS, except it forces -O3, mostly due to a regression in GCC where -O2 and PGO doesn't produce better result than regular -O2
<dnkl>
gustafla: you're welcome :)

<sosodank>
you pretty much have to enlist an Arch TU to move your package into community
<sosodank>
and they're then going to have to maintain it
<rcf>
Evangelize on the Arch channels and maybe someone will start using it and package it
<rcf>
That's my hope anyway.
<sosodank>
have you seen -march=native improve performance for foot?
<testuser[m]>
march=native doesn't have much difference than setting it to an x86 v2/v3/v4 march
<rcf>
I've never actually looked into it, mainly because I've never run into any performance issues
<rcf>
Hence no need to expend effort on proper benchmarks.
<sosodank>
right, i meant that more for gustafla

Anyone know a terminal application that has support for mouse wheel *left/right* events? This corresponds to mouse buttons 6 and 7 in X.
<ifreund>
my mouse doesn't even have those buttons :D
<dnkl>
ifreund: I had to borrow one :D
* dnkl
is, obviously, adding support to foot
<sosodank>
i've seen 8 and 9, but no 6 and 7

sosodank: 8 and 9 are typically the extra "side" buttons
<dnkl>
But yeah... Not sure how common mouse with a tiltable scroll wheel is...
<dnkl>
Anyway, foot now generates escapes for them (when the application enables mouse event reporting)
<dnkl>
Just wanted to see it in action :D

Emacs (of course) supports it
<dnkl>
(require 'mwheel)
<dnkl>
(setq mouse-wheel-tilt-scroll t)
<dnkl>
(setq mouse-wheel-flip-direction t)

(mouse-wheel-mode t)
<testuser[m]>
has anyone faced this issue where foot shows tiny grey lines at random places that go away when you move your cursor near them ?
<dnkl>
testuser[m]: you on GNOME?
<testuser[m]>
no
<testuser[m]>
sway
<dnkl>
Fractional scaling?
<testuser[m]>
1.25
<dnkl>
That's likely related
<testuser[m]>
the "lines" are 1 column wide and appears at places the cursor has visited
<dnkl>
Dickey added it all by himself. It's not released yet though. I just happened to see the changelog for the upcoming release
<dnkl>
ifreund: ^^
<ifreund>
kinda neat that it just happend without prompting as it appears alacritty/kitty needed to do
<dnkl>
I have no idea how this came to be...
<ifreund>
having it out of sync with the official foot terminfo is super awkward though :/
<dnkl>
ifreund: supposedly he tested the terminal, and changed the capabilities he felt was wrong
<dnkl>
For example, he removed the status-line capabilities because "foot doesn't set the window title"
<dnkl>
Which is wrong
<dnkl>
Unless you test on Weston or GNOME, with CSDs
<dnkl>
(foot-1.8.3 will have support for title in CSDs too, btw)
<ifreund>
nice
<dnkl>
Apparently, bell also doesn't work
* ericonr
knows people who like the bell with sound
<testuser[m]>
what bell
<testuser[m]>
does it refer to the boink sound when you press backspace on an empty line
<dnkl>
testuser[m]: "echo -e '\a'"
<dnkl>
testuser[m]: there's a couple of different things foot can do with it.
<dnkl>
See the "bell" section in foot.ini(5)
<dnkl>
ericonr: funny thing is, "tack" (test application) says exactly that foot bell: "you should hear a bell, otherwise it's not working"
<dnkl>
S/foot/for
<ericonr>
hm, so if you do a graphical bell, it's non conforming?
<dnkl>
ericonr: I guess :)
<dnkl>
Not that it matters; it doesn't affect any capabilities in the terminfo - it's just a comment in the terminfo source file

Fwiw: setting TERMINFO_DIRS seems to work best; it'll still search the default location (but only *after* searching TERMINFO_DIRS)
<ericonr>
nice
<ericonr>
supposedly you'd want to append to it
<ericonr>
because users might have things already
<dnkl>
ericonr: of course :)

hi
<phin>
is there a way to get gnome titlebars with foot?
<dnkl>
phin: I'm guessing you actually mean GTK titlebars, in which case the answer is no
<dnkl>
In GNOME, all applications draw their own titlebar
<phin>
darn :(
<dnkl>
Since foot isn't based on gtk, it won't, and can't, draw gtk-styled bars
<phin>
ya that makes sense

if you want to go complain to someone, complain to the gnome and gtk people, they're the ones who pushed so hard for CSD everywhere on wayland :P
