Überblick
Fast, lightweight and minimalistic Wayland terminal emulator
Verlauf
foot is a fast, lightweight Wayland-native terminal emulator whose own README emphasizes low dependency, disk, and memory footprint; desktop-environment independence; a server/daemon mode; searchable scrollback; URL handling; color emoji; true color; sixel images; and modern terminal protocol support.
The project is developed on Codeberg by dnkl and is written for Wayland rather than for X11 compatibility. Its README presents foot as a focused terminal emulator, while its installation guide documents Meson-based builds and the author's related libraries fcft and tllist as part of the build ecosystem.
The name is explained by the maintainer as a contraction from 'foo terminal' through 'footerm' to 'foot', matching the small, utilitarian naming style of the project.
foot became notable in Wayland-oriented Linux packaging because it is designed as a native Wayland terminal with its own terminfo. The installation guide notes that ncurses has included a version of foot's terminfo since the 2021-07-31 ncurses release, while still documenting packaging choices for foot-specific or separately packaged terminfo definitions.
Users run foot directly or use footclient with the server mode. Configuration is read from XDG-style foot.ini paths, and packagers can tune Meson options for documentation, tests, IME, grapheme clustering, terminfo, systemd units, and utmp backends.
Package maintainers care about foot because it sits at the intersection of Wayland, terminal capability databases, optional runtime integrations, and small C dependencies. Its docs explicitly discuss whether to use ncurses' bundled terminfo or package foot's own terminfo, a detail that affects remote shells, tmux, and TERM/TERMINFO behavior.
