			Still think there's more to be gleaned from https://github.com/skywind3000/vim-terminal-help/blob/master/plugin/terminal_help.vim

			Also I was reminded of this great paragraph from the blender wiki article:

			Ok I got a lot of vim stuff working, glad to say. Don't have the drop-in-current-window functionality yet, but opening a file in a new tab and pasting into vim terminal both work.

			First I had to turn off the alacritty paste. Then it turned out all that was going wrong was it was sending <esc>v instead of M-v (which I sorta tried to fix using a previous answer on Stackoverflow). The final fix was:

			tnoremap <esc>v <C-@>"+

			Along the way I learned how to make vim really verbose: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3025615/is-there-a-vim-runtime-log

			and a step towards a vim desribe-key: an answer recommended remapping a key by typing

			:nnoremap

			and then C-q then the key you want. In my case the familiar <code>^[v</code> popped up, which gave the the info I needed: it was coming through as escape.

			So just to play along, I did as they instructed and got

			:tnoremap ^]v

			which now shows my command: <Nul>"+. Unfortunately at no point did it show "visual mode" command, whatever that is. Maybe it just discarded the escape and went for v, visual mode. I guess you can read about default keybindings with <code>:index</code>.

			Just now I discovered this terminal emulator st, but it runs on x and I'm trying to get that out of my config so it's a no-go for now. Though it does claim the suckless tag.

			Also reminded of the Kakaoune editor, looks like vim with multiple cursors: http://kakoune.org/ - reminded of it by this other editor https://helix-editor.com/

			But I think I'm going to just switch back to emacs, with my new knowledge of terminal window management done by an editor terminal emulator.

			I keep seeing tree-sitter all over the place, looks cool but maybe so low level it just works and I don't need to learn it. All this great software for free, wow!
