Termite looks for configuration files in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/termite/config, ~/.config/termite/config, $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/termite/config and /etc/xdg/termite.cfg. Many commands are borrowed from Vim, for example v for visual mode, Shift+v for visual line mode, Ctrl+v for visual block mode, y to copy ("yank") selected text, / and ? for searching, w, b, ^, $ for movement, and Escape to go back to insert mode. Ctrl+Tab starts scrollback completion, and Ctrl+Shift+Up / Ctrl+Shift+Down scroll the screen up or down.Ĭtrl+Shift+Space enters selection-mode, similar to vim's normal-mode. In insert mode, Ctrl+Shift+c is used to copy selected text to the X clipboard, Ctrl+Shift+v to paste. ![]() Text may be selected using the mouse, or by using selection-mode keys. Termite starts in insert mode by default. Termite supports transparency along with both the 256 color and true color (16 million colors) palettes. The configuration file allows changing colors and setting options. It is a modal application, similar to Vim, with an insert mode and selection mode where keybindings have different functions. Termite is a minimal VTE-based terminal emulator. Alacritty is dramatically faster than VTE, more robust, more secure and more modern overall. ![]() Alacritty has a keyboard text selection mode inspired by Termite and the upcoming 0.8 version has a similar hints mode. ![]() Note: Termite is no longer actively developed/maintained and the developers recommend using Alacritty as a replacement.
