+
+Configuring kitty
+-------------------
+
+|kitty| is highly configurable, everything from keyboard shortcuts to
+painting frames-per-second. Press :sc:`edit_config_file` in kitty
+to open its fully commented sample config file in your text editor.
+For details see the :doc:`configuration docs <conf>`.
+
+
+Remote control
+------------------
+
+|kitty| has a very powerful system that allows you to control it from the
+:doc:`shell prompt, even over SSH <remote-control>`. You can change colors,
+fonts, open new :term:`windows <window>`, :term:`tabs <tab>`, set their titles,
+change window layout, get text
+from one window and send text to another, etc, etc. The possibilities are
+endless. See the :doc:`tutorial <remote-control>` to get started.
+
+.. _sessions:
+
+Startup Sessions
+------------------
+
+You can control the :term:`tabs <tab>`, `:term:`kitty window <window>` layout,
+working directory, startup programs,
+etc. by creating a "session" file and using the :option:`kitty --session`
+command line flag or the :opt:`startup_session` option in :file:`kitty.conf`.
+For example:
+
+.. code-block:: session
+
+    # Set the layout for the current tab
+    layout tall
+    # Set the working directory for windows in the current tab
+    cd ~
+    # Create a window and run the specified command in it
+    launch zsh
+    # Create a window with some environment variables set and run
+    # vim in it
+    launch --env FOO=BAR vim
+    # Set the title for the next window
+    launch --title "Chat with x" irssi --profile x
+
+    # Create a new tab (the part after new_tab is the optional tab
+    # name which will be displayed in the tab bar, if omitted, the
+    # title of the active window will be used instead)
+    new_tab my tab
+    cd ~/somewhere
+    # Set the layouts allowed in this tab
+    enabled_layouts tall, stack
+    # Set the current layout
+    layout stack
+    launch zsh
+
+    # Create a new OS window
+    new_os_window
+    # set new window size to 80x25 cells
+    os_window_size 80c 25c
+    # set the --class for the new OS window
+    os_window_class mywindow
+    launch sh
+    # Make the current window the active (focused) window
+    focus
+    launch emacs
+
+.. note::
+    The :doc:`launch <launch>` command when used in a session file
+    cannot create new OS windows, or tabs.
+
+
+Mouse features
+-------------------
+
+* You can click on a URL to open it in a browser.
+* You can double click to select a word and then drag to select more words.
+* You can triple click to select a line and then drag to select more lines.
+* You can triple click while holding :kbd:`ctrl+alt` to select from clicked
+  point to end of line.
+* You can right click to extend a previous selection.
+* You can hold down :kbd:`ctrl+alt` and drag with the mouse to select in
+  columns.
+* Selecting text automatically copies it to the primary clipboard (on
+  platforms with a primary clipboard).
+* You can middle click to paste from the primary clipboard (on platforms
+  with a primary clipboard).
+* You can select text with kitty even when a terminal program has grabbed
+  the mouse by holding down the :kbd:`shift` key.
+
+All these actions can be customized in :file:`kitty.conf` as described
+:ref:`here <conf-kitty-mouse.mousemap>`.
+
+
+Font control
+-----------------
+
+|kitty| has extremely flexible and powerful font selection features. You can
+specify individual families for the regular, bold, italic and bold+italic
+fonts. You can even specify specific font families for specific ranges of
+unicode characters. This allows precise control over text rendering. It can
+come in handy for applications like powerline, without the need to use patched
+fonts. See the various font related configuration directives in
+:ref:`conf-kitty-fonts`.
+
+
+.. _scrollback:
+
+The scrollback buffer
+-----------------------
+
+|kitty| supports scrolling back to view history, just like most terminals. You
+can use either keyboard shortcuts or the mouse scroll wheel to do so.  However,
+|kitty| has an extra, neat feature. Sometimes you need to explore the
+scrollback buffer in more detail, maybe search for some text or refer to it
+side-by-side while typing in a follow-up command. |kitty| allows you to do this
+by pressing the :sc:`show_scrollback` key-combination, which will open the
+scrollback buffer in your favorite pager program (which is ``less`` by default).
+Colors and text formatting are preserved. You can explore the scrollback buffer
+comfortably within the pager.
+
+Additionally, you can pipe the contents of the scrollback buffer to an
+arbitrary, command running in a new :term:`window`, :term:`tab` or :term:`overlay`,
+for example::
+
+   map f1 launch --stdin-source=@screen_scrollback --stdin-add-formatting less +G -R
+
+Would open the scrollback buffer in a new :term:`window` when you press the :kbd:`F1`
+key. See :sc:`show_scrollback` for details.
+
+If you want to use it with an editor such as vim to get more powerful features,
+you can see tips for doing so, in
+`this thread <https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/issues/719>`_.
+
+If you wish to store very large amounts of scrollback to view using the piping or
+:sc:`show_scrollback` features, you can use the :opt:`scrollback_pager_history_size`
+option.
+
+You can also view the output of the last command to run in the shell, by
+pressing :sc:`show_last_command_output`. See :ref:`shell_integration` for
+details.
+
+.. _cpbuf:
+
+Multiple copy/paste buffers
+-----------------------------
+
+In addition to being able to copy/paste from the system clipboard, in |kitty| you
+can also setup an arbitrary number of copy paste buffers. To do so, simply add
+something like the following to your :file:`kitty.conf`::
+
+   map f1 copy_to_buffer a
+   map f2 paste_from_buffer a
+
+This will allow you to press :kbd:`F1` to copy the current selection to an
+internal buffer named ``a`` and :kbd:`F2` to paste from that buffer. The buffer
+names are arbitrary strings, so you can define as many such buffers as you
+need.
+
+Marks
+-------------
+
+kitty has the ability to mark text on the screen based on regular expressions.
+This can be useful to highlight words or phrases when browsing output from long
+running programs or similar. To learn how this feature works, see :doc:`marks`.
