2023-06-12Switch to TOML configuration formatChristian Duerr
This switches Alacritty's default configuration format from yaml to toml. While yaml is still supported, it is done by converting it to toml and should be removed entirely in the future. All existing features were persisted based on my testing. Behavior should not change much, though `--option` might have slightly different behavior since the entire line is not interpreted as one line of toml. A new `alacritty migrate` subcommand has been added which allows automatic migration from yaml to toml. This also could be used as a facility to automatically fix configuration file changes in the future. Closes #6592.
2023-05-28Move manpages to scdocChristian Duerr
This rewrites the existing manpages to use the `scdoc` format, making it simpler to read and edit the manpages without intricate roff knowledge. Some minor changes to the manpages were made in the process, mostly focusing on correcting some of the wording. The list of maintainers has also changed to ensure people not involved in the project anymore aren't unnecessarily contacted for support.

2020-08-07Rework installation instructionsCanh Dinh
Since users should be capable of finding packages for their distributions, this removes all instructions that point users directly at specific packages. The third party repositories like COPR have been kept, since those are more difficult to find. The structure of the installation instructions has also been reworked to adjust for this and the post build instructions should be a bit cleaner now.

2020-01-11Move Alacritty to organizationChristian Duerr
This fixes various outdated links pointing to the old jwilm/alacritty repository. Since `copypasta` now has its own github repository at https://github.com/alacritty/copypasta, the sources have been removed from Alacritty.

2019-06-03Add Gentoo install dependenciesChristian Duerr
While Gentoo was listed in the table of contents of the INSTALL.md, the instructions to install the build dependencies were missing. This adds the emerge command necessary to install all dependencies of Alacritty (other than Rust) so building from source without the overlay is possible.

2019-04-28Switch from copypasta to rust-clipboardChristian Duerr
This switches our own `copypasta` crate with the more standardized `clipboard` library, which allows us to get rid of the `xclip` dependency on X11. Additionally, this lays the foundation for native Wayland clipboard support once the clipboard crate is updated (or a fork is created). Fixes #5.

The crate containing the entry point is called alacritty, and the crate containing everything else is called alacritty_terminal.

2019-03-03Fix terminfo support for extended capabilitiesChristian Duerr
To make sure all extended capabilities can be queried correctly, it is necessary to compile the terminfo file using the `-x` flag. Since Alacritty specified support for the XTerm mouse mode (XM/xm), using the `-x` flag was not possible until now without breaking programs like `htop`. By removing this flag, these issues should be resolved. This fixes https://github.com/jwilm/alacritty/issues/2131.
