Please help.

I'm using `kitty` on Windows 10 to ssh into my development environment in `neovim` (0.9.1) on a Raspberry Pi 400. However, using `screen` messes up the colours alot, to say the least. The first image shows `neovim` in `kitty` without `screen`, while the second image is of `neovim` inside a `screen`.

Is there a solution to this problem?

#neovim #nvim #screen #development #programming #rust #rustlang

@jonas so… how good is your reason for using screen, instead of tmux or zellij?

Because I’ve never had that kind of problem with either.

@mars my reason is but years 😂 I've never used any other "multiplexer"...

So... I'd say my reason isn't that good 😂

@jonas @mars it’s not a bad reason. It’s a big part of your workflow probably. I’d you’re switching to tmux, you may be able to rebind keys so that it acts like screen. Ctrl-A instead of Ctrl-B etc.

@jonas @c0dec0dec0de you can rebind everything in tmux.

The defaults are ok, but not great. With a little time and effort you can get the same workflow you have in screen.

And if you are ready for something different, Zellij has great features an sensible defaults.

@mars I’ve started to look at Zellij. Seems nice! After all it’s in Rust so hits hits close to home 🙂

I’ve been doing so many different tests today so I’m not sure if `tmux` worked or not. Perhaps there were some setting in .tmux.conf… 🤪

@jonas @c0dec0dec0de what seems to be the problem with tmux?

For true color you have to add some lines to your config file indeed.

Zellij is great, but the workflow and bindings are weird. I have to keep locking and unlocking.

@mars I’m not even sure there is a problem. Let me get back to you on that 🙂

@c0dec0dec0de

@mars @c0dec0dec0de ok, so I’ve landed this endeavour in Zellij. I have not done any deeper research but the colouring works as expected.

I’ve been on `screen` as long as I can remember so the keybindings are very new! 😂
