[Github-comments] Re: [geany/geany] Terminal/console feature on Windows (#675)

holly molly.. just stumbled upon this paragraph in [termite#readme] while 
searching for [dirs]
this provided a many fold increase to my love for gtk too 🤣😘

2023-04-22 Thread goyalyashpal via Github-comments
so, my use-case this time is to make the `execute` command in geany to use a 
terminal which has [iterm image 
protocol](https://wezfurlong.org/wezterm/imgcat.html?h=image) support (like 
wezterm)

currently, geany opens with conhost, and conhost doesn't support that.

i didn't by intention - it's probably by accident. it happens very often when 
the network is weak and the ctrl enter keypress doesn't respond immediately

No, please no! I am on windows, and using Geany 1.38 for quite some months. And 
I very much love the non-windowsy look on linux applications. 

It refreshes me to see some element of difference, and gives some sense of 
freedom to my eyes. Don't fall for this "foolish consistency" of _native 
themeing_

And also... the UI on my system ain't scaled up at all 🤔 ?
