alacritty macos keys don't work properly

[dvc94ch]

need to do some development on a mac and am trying to replicate my linux setup as well as possible. alt+enter works alright, but alt+printable character does not. any ideas?

Have you found the solution to this? I have the same problem.

If you are using Alacritty, you can add this keybinding to your configuration https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/issues/93#issuecomment-353489475.

Sorry for the late reply. Is it correct that Alacritty on macOS still requires the linked configuration for Tilish to work, or has this issue been fixed upstream? Perhaps it would help other users if I add a link to that issue in the Tilish README?

I confirm that Alacritty on MacOS still requires the key binding configuration, but the impact is pretty far up. Even outside of tmux, none of the key sequences involving option | alt (meta) work without the configuration.

Thanks for confirming.

I have now added a note about this at the end of the "Terminal compatibility" section of the README. Does this resolve the issue, or do you think I ought to add any more instructions there for macOS + Alacritty users?
