    https://github.com/typst/typst is an interesting competitor to ConTeXt. It's not even TeX, but somehow I tried (and liked) it before I tried CoTeXt. TeX syntax is not something I e…

    If you want the `-X` behavior only some of the time, see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46472859 . (Maybe I should've posted it in this thread)

    If you're like a quick fix, see https://ghostty.org/docs/help/terminfo#copy-ghostty's-termin... . If that doesn't work, perhaps one of the other suggestions on that page will.
