When working inside a vterm terminal, editing multi-line text can be awkward: you lose access to Emacs keybindings, navigation, and editing commands. vterm-editor solves this by opening a temporary buffer where you can write comfortably using all of Emacs, then send the result back to vterm.

A question for emacs users who have a python REPL workflow and use corfu (so a very small, possibly 0-member group).

Has anyone been able to get completions to work on the REPL in vterm ? I keep getting:

>>> ["0__dummy_completion__", "Path", "1__dummy_completion__"]

or much larger walls of text. Makes using the REPL impossible.

I'm experimenting with using #Emacs for my terminals, especially using the #vterm package. It could be a really nice environment: cross-platform, easy copy-pasting with keyboard commands only, etc.

However, when I started up the #Gemini CLI in the vterm buffer, I found that it renders quite differently. See https://github.com/akermu/emacs-libvterm/issues/776. Basically, there are soft stripes between the #Unicode block characters and the shade characters are dithered instead of being nice solid blocks.

since i was using #vi on #vterm anyway , so why not try #nvim for once
recently I messed up my #zsh profile paths on #kitty and but most tasks went well on #vterm #magit
the latter is so simple , that I wonder why was I using another term for git or anything in 1st place
OS is obviously #nixos , hence the isolated envs
it's really hard to always know how one programs uses another
today my #vterm is doing better than #kitty for #zsh
#nixos
custom #zsh functions give me the git/ tmux functionality I need
can't recall but someone wrote #go helpers for this
#vterm
sh-set-shell may not be #vterm , but its good enough
ok, so #vterm doesn't actually run bash upon start. If I run /bin/bash, all my usual environment is working.
How to “source venv/bin/activate” in #Emacs in #vterm through TRAMP ssh session? It doesn’t seem to find ‘source’. It’s highly specific but it’s annoying that I can’t do that.
