😺 vim-kitty

(Neo)vim syntax highlighting for Kitty terminal configuration and session files.

Keywords based on v0.37.0.

See screenshot for a visual explanation of what this plugin does.

📜 Filetype detection

Any *.conf or *.session files in kitty's configuration directory is considered.

You can always add # vim:ft=kitty at the beginning of any file to make sure the syntax is loaded, or you can set it temporarily with :set ft=kitty.
