1. They are having a "launch party". This is "interesting". They are selling to devs (I read bros, YMMV). 2. Is there a two minute tldr? (aka What are the key concepts?) 3. What is the evolutionary path from rxvt to this?

Here's the 2min tldr:

Warp is a fast, Rust-based terminal. Key features include: 1. Modern editor that lets you edit input like an IDE 2. Input and output are grouped in blocks for easier navigation 3. Integrated AI for command suggestions, debugging, and chat 4. "Warp Drive" to save parameterized commands as reusable workflows (like aliases but easier to use and more powerful)

A terminal with built-in "telemetry" (spyware) and a pricing model... Just what I never wanted!

To avoid being too negative, I'll offer the option of Kitty[1]. My current favorite terminal. Supports many features.

Including my personal favorites:

* ctrl+c (as opposed to stupid things like ctrl+shift+c) to copy data only when you have content selected. Otherwise, ctrl+c sends a sigint like normal.

* font ligature support (a controversial feature)
