* Rework installation instructionsCanh Dinh2020-08-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since users should be capable of finding packages for their distributions, this removes all instructions that point users directly at specific packages. The third party repositories like COPR have been kept, since those are more difficult to find. The structure of the installation instructions has also been reworked to adjust for this and the post build instructions should be a bit cleaner now.

* Remove Ubuntu PPA installation instructionsChristian Duerr2020-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | Since the Ubuntu PPA from mmstick is apparently not maintained anymore, people should no longer be instructed to install the outdated version that is available from the PPA. The System76 PPA repository still contains an up to date version of Alacritty, but since it also comes with several other packages we cannot recommend users to install it outside of Pop!_OS. Fixes #3863.

* Move Alacritty to organizationChristian Duerr2020-01-11
| | | | | | | | This fixes various outdated links pointing to the old jwilm/alacritty repository. Since `copypasta` now has its own github repository at https://github.com/alacritty/copypasta, the sources have been removed from Alacritty.

* Set maximum Rust version to 1.31.0Christian Duerr2019-04-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | By setting the minimum Rust version and enforcing it with CI, Alacritty should hopefully make it possible for maintainers to package the application even on distributions which are not rolling release. The 1.31.0 target has been chosen here because it's the first version of the Rust 2018 release. Bumping this version in the future should be considered to be a breaking change and should only be done with caution and in consideration of the supported Rust versions of the major distributions available. This fixes #2277.

* Small Updates to the README (#2091)Nathan Lilienthal2019-02-18
| | | | | | | Update the README and related files. This commit generally updates some language in the "About" section, and other sections with respect to keeping accurate information, and laying out the project goals in a clear way. We're also marking Alacritty as "beta" software at this point, not that this has any explicit meaning.
* Document that alacritty requires winpty-agent on windows Zac Pullar-Strecker2019-02-02
| | | | | | | | | To make things easier to understand for Windows users, the relationship between Alacritty and the WinPTY agent has been clarified in the documentation. This also bundles the windows agent and exe together in a zip file to make distribution for windows easier on the user.
* Make all configuration fields optionalChristian Duerr2019-01-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All configuration fields now have fallback values which will be used if the field is not present. This includes mouse, key bindings and platform specific differences. The mouse and key bindings are now filled by default, if the user rebinds a default mapping, it will be overwritten. To unbind a default binding, it can be mapped to `chars: ""`. Since all platform differences can now be correctly handled by the `src/config/mod.rs` code, it's no longer necessary to maintain separate configuration files, so the `alacritty_macos.yml` and `alacritty_windows.yml` have been deleted. Fixes #40. Fixes #1923.

* Add support for Windows (#1374)Zac Pullar-Strecker2018-10-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Initial support for Windows is implemented using the winpty translation layer. Clipboard support for Windows is provided through the `clipboard` crate, and font rasterization is provided by RustType. The tty.rs file has been split into OS-specific files to separate standard pty handling from the winpty implementation. Several binary components are fetched via build script on windows including libclang and winpty. These could be integrated more directly in the future either by building those dependencies as part of the Alacritty build process or by leveraging git lfs to store the artifacts. Fixes #28.
* Extract manual installation instructionsChristian Duerr2018-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Alacritty's manual installation instructions take up a lot of space in the README and they are hard to navigate because there's a lot of information for specific distros which are irrelevant to most users. To improve this situation, the manual installation section has been moved to the `INSTALL.md` file. This allows keeping the readme to a minimum which just includes the straight-forward instructions required to install it on systems which provide packages for it. Having a separate file also makes it possible to add a full index just for the installation instructions, which makes it possible to skip sections which are irrelevant.

* Add standalone terminfo definitionDaniel Eklöf2018-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | This replaces the current definitions, which depend on the system's 'xterm-256color' terminfo definition with the `alacritty` and `alacritty-direct` definitions. The new definitions are completely standalone. The default `TERM` value has been changed to be dynamically set based on the definitions installed on the system. Alacritty will try to use the `alacritty` definition first and fall back to `xterm-256color` if the `alacritty` definition is not present.
