Is there a mode to always pass escape codes to the application?

[jiaxincao]

My terminal sends ^[[127;5u when I press ctrl-backspace. However, zellij today intercepts the message, and overrides it. This is very frustrating, since a lot of my key bindings fail to work because of it.

It seems that the client side is always using kitty keyboard protocol for keys with modifiers (here). And when the server side application doesn't request kitty keyboard protocl, zellij will try to translate these escape codes with its own logic.

Is there a way to prevent zellij from doing it?

Does this happen in locked mode as well?

Yes, it does happen in locked mode as well. Is that possible to provide a passthrough mode to forward all escape codes to applications?

Yes. You can add explicitly_disable_kitty_keyboard_protocol true to your configuration.

did you mean support_kitty_keyboard_protocol false?

It works. Thanks!
