Watch kitty in action!
Shell integration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
kitty automatically integrates with common shells to allow browsing the
output of the previous command in a pager by pressing
:sc:`show_last_command_output`, jumping to previous prompt locations in the
scrollback by pressing :sc:`scroll_to_previous_prompt` and clicking with the
mouse anywhere in the current command to move the cursor there. See
:doc:`shell-integration` for details.
Logos for windows
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
kitty has the ability to display arbitrary ``PNG`` images at the corner
of any kitty window to serve as a *logo* for quick window identification.
Can be controlled via :opt:`window_logo_path` and also and changed via
the :ref:`at_set-window-logo` remote control command.
Useful to quickly identify special windows or just for some *bling*.

Visual keyboard based window select
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Select a kitty window visually using the keyboard, like the
:doc:`kittens/hints`, but for kitty windows. Can also be used from shell
scripts/third party integrations via the :ref:`at_select-window` remote control
command.
