looks cool, have to try…

So Eat is amazing. I'm considering replacing tmux with it.
I work inside a Chrome based terminal, using xtermjs ... eat is fast at doing things like cating files, but things like top seem relatively slow. Slower than tmux anyway.
But eat is still really amazing, thank you for it!

I'm confused, as on the github it says "line mode" is not available in eat.

[@intermarer9145]

I don't get it; what is this trying to show/demo exactly? Eshell in 2023? Is Eat a package?

[@EmacsConf]

Yes, eat is a terminal emulator: codeberg.org/akib/emacs-eat - Sacha
