Solution: Go back to using "xterm-kitty" and avoid the problems it causes in another way. diff --git a/runtime/doc/term.txt b/runtime/doc/term.txt --- a/runtime/doc/term.txt +++ b/runtime/doc/term.txt @@ -306,9 +306,14 @@ One of the problems is that the value fo Vim this is an indication that the terminal is xterm-compatible and the builtin xterm termcap entries should be used. Many other terminals depend on this. However, Kitty is not fully xterm compatible. The author suggested to -ignore the "xterm-" prefix and use the terminfo entry anyway, but that -conflicts with what is needed for other terminals. Therefore Vim removes the -"xterm-" prefix from "xterm-kitty" when it comes from $TERM. +ignore the "xterm-" prefix and use the terminfo entry anyway, so that is what +happens now, the builtin xterm termcap entries are not used. However, the +t_RV is set, otherwise other things would not work, such as automatically +setting 'ttymouse' to "sgr". + +It is not clear why kitty sets $TERM to "xterm-kitty", the terminal isn't +really xterm compatible. "kitty" would be more appropriate, but a terminfo +entry with that name is not widespread.
