DESCRIPTION

12       Alacritty  is  a  modern  terminal  emulator  that  comes with sensible
13       defaults, but allows for extensive configuration. By  integrating  with
14       other  applications, rather than reimplementing their functionality, it
15       manages to provide a flexible set of features with high performance.
