+kitty (fast, featureful, GPU-based terminal emulator)
+
+kitty is a terminal emulator for X11 and Wayland[1], which offloads
+the rendering to the GPU[2] and supports modern terminal features. It
+also supports tiling multiple terminal windows without using an extra
+program like screen or tmux.
+
+[1] For Wayland support, install wayland-protocols before building
+ kitty. It will be auto-detected. It may be necessary to add the
+ following line to ~/.config/kitty/kitty.conf:
+
+ linux_display_server wayland
+
+[2] Requires hardware-accelerated OpenGL support.
