There's been a bug report against tilda for more than a year to get them to update their vte version. Some of the things tilda can do, like an opaque background, are unsupported in vte 2.91. Unfortunately this puts tilda in a tight spot, needing at least 0.30 and less than 0.38. Some of the other terminals out there either use or used this version also, but I haven't checked to see if they've moved on yet or not. -- Efraim Flashner <efr...@flashner.co.il> אפרים פלשנר GPG key = A28B F40C 3E55 1372 662D 14F7 41AA E7DC CA3D 8351 Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed on emails sent or received unencrypted
