14:13 <dnkl> ngortheone: the terminfos are very similar, and most applications will work. It's impossible to say what won't work. You should also be aware that future changes to xterm's terminfo could break foot in surprising ways.

14:49 <rockorager> https://github.com/MidnightCommander/mc/blob/953c10134767853a39e95caf9b04c7431f65d0e5/lib/tty/tty.c#L110

14:49 <rockorager> I was curious so looked into it

14:49 <rockorager> This is a super weird behavior

14:49 <rockorager> So setting TERM=xterm-256color means this will return false, just like TERM=foot

14:54 <rockorager> I know that vim checks if your TERM is prefixed with “xterm” to enable some things

15:08 <dnkl> rockorager: no? it does strncmp:ares. I.e it only checks the first letters of TERM. Thus it'll match all of xterm, xterm-256color, foot and foot-extra, to name a few

15:24 <dnkl> not sure if related, but there's an mc.lib file, that seem to define key codes, based on terminal names. Alacritty (where Shift-F6 works for me) is in it, but foot is not

15:25 <dnkl> that was it; I hot-patched it (/usr/share/mc/mc.lib), and added foot. After that, shift-f6 started working

15:31 <dnkl> as for neovim, I'm getting the same behavior in (at least) xterm, alacritty, contour and foot: shift-f6 is interpreted as f18

15:32 <WhyNotHugo> theme.sh has about 450 themes in a very simple format: https://github.com/lemnos/theme.sh/blob/master/themes/elio

15:32 <WhyNotHugo> I'm thinking of programatically converting them into foot themes and packaging them as foot-themes.

15:33 <j`ey> on that note, maybe foot should ship it's default as a theme fle

15:33 <j`ey> file

15:34 <dnkl> j`ey: it does

15:34 <j`ey> oh

15:35 <j`ey> dnkl: which one is it?

15:36 <dnkl> j`ey: starlight

15:36 <j`ey> ok ty

15:37 <dnkl> ngortheone: regarding neovim, for the terminfos that _do_ work, do they contain a kf18 entry?

15:37 <dnkl> (TERM=<terminfo> infocmp | grep kf18)

15:38 <dnkl> if that entry is missing, it is likely to be the reason shift-f6 works

15:39 <dnkl> j`ey: https://github.com/CosmicToast/starlight

15:39 <dnkl> WhyNotHugo: be my guest :)

15:41 <j`ey> I wrote something to change the themes, nice for running a VM with a different theme

15:58 <rockorager> dnkl: my lack of c knowledge is showing

16:03 <rockorager> dnkl: have you paid attention to the change in kitty keyboard?

16:03 <rockorager> I think I pinged you but can’t remember

16:05 <dnkl> I remember a ticket. The wording in it suggested the spec may change multiple times, and it wasn't until it made it into an actual release that the new behavior was decided.

16:06 <dnkl> so I've been waiting...

16:06 <rockorager> It’s decided now. https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/issues/6913

16:06 <rockorager> Unreleased still

16:06 <rockorager> Spicy issue though

16:13 <dnkl> so, to summarize: keys that affect the set of active modifiers should include themselves in modifier list of the key event, for both presses and releases

16:22 <rockorager> dnkl: that sounds right
