Mac OS Alt key and opening panes horiztontally? #3634

Open bsodmike opened 1 month ago

bsodmike commented 1 month ago

Hi,

I'm on Mac with Alacritty and haven't figured out getting my left-Alt key working BUT, I have been using Zellij for a while.

Can we add a option to Ctrl + p so that we can do <Ctrl + p> + n but with the option of opening the pane horizontally?

Or can someone please advise on getting the Alt key to work?

Thanks! Mike.

Wow, https://www.reddit.com/r/zellij/comments/17p04cr/how_to_control_new_pane/. This wasn't on the command strip but good to know!

Will leave open for someone to comment on getting my Alt key to work, otherwise please close.

Hey,

to get the Alt key working on macos, you can set this option in Alacritty's configuration:

[window]
option_as_alt = "Both"

Thanks, I already have OnlyLeft and I get ¬ if I press ALT + l (lowercase L). And neovim doesn't recognise <M-l>. Ideas?
