What is OmniPTY?
If your terminal is really a terminal plus a stack of add-ons (tmux for splits and sessions, a file manager in another pane, a prompt framework, a copy-mode plugin), OmniPTY builds those in, all configured from one TOML file that reloads when you save.
From its README on GitHub
OmniPTY is a launch on Show HN. It is written in Rust and released under the MIT license.
