Recreated whirling in rag‘s floor for if someone wants if to use it for backgrounds or dnd etc.

Made a discovery on whirling‘s floor (with @ieilaf )

The patterns are based on zellij patterns found in Islamic architecture. A mosaic tilework made from very pretty and colourful geometric shapes. These floor patterns make up the pre-revolution martinaise ground. I actually found the exact patterns they used in the whirling online after making my own tiles before the discovery ermmm 😬😬

I‘m pretty sure the tiles are sourced from textures.com, here are the links to the tiles the game used:

>Teal grid with yellow octograms tiles

>Black, yellow, green and blue checkered tiles

>Black grid with white octogram tiles

>Angled squares forming white diamonds

here are my tiles feel free to use

zellij goes crazy btw

something i find so annoying with so many terminal multiplexers is that they're all almost perfect for using as a daily driver but every single one has some issue that makes it not possible to use properly

wezterm is nearly perfect with native keybinds, fantastic protocol support, good config, and a built-in multiplexing feature that works across ssh. unfortunately, that multiplexing feature is fully broken to the point of being unusable! if you detach and reattach, there's any number of issues that'll happen that mean having to reopen split panes, defeating the point of any of it. the command pallet is also a neat feature but impossible to navigate

zellij is really cool, actively developed, has an interesting plugin system, an expansive config, and real nice status bars telling you what keybinds you can use. but! those keybinds basically make it unusable. it spans most of the ctrl/alt keyboard space, which is exactly where, say, and editor might also go. it seems to have had kitty protocol support added at some point, but that doesnt work at all, and enabling kitty support in nushell while using zellij breaks everything

tmux is. well, it's tmux. it's solid, performant, scriptable, and pretty much abandonware. sure, it might have some updates to keep it working, but it will pretty much never get any real new features, and the ones it does have are kinda limited. you can only open 1 popup at a time? sure, i guess that works most of the time, but man that's an annoying limitation. oh and kitty protocol support? yeah right go fuck yourself actually

oh and that's it. on top of this there are basically these 3 options for detachable multiplexing (that works over ssh), and all others would end up just being inferior versions really. as to what i use currently? it's tmux in wezterm. wezterm is actually a good terminal, it's just the advertised 'multiplexing' features are basically non-functional, and tmux is good enough that is actually works, if a bit annoyingly

honestly, i want to work on wezterm and fix all the multiplexing shit so i can use it, but it's a massive project so i have no idea where to start. maybe i should work up the courage to ask some people and get stuck in, but that's anxiety and a lot of time

ugh
