Hi @rancid flame. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Based on the knowledge sources provided, I understand your concern about the gap in Neovim when using Warp terminal on Mac. This issue is related to the padding/margin that Warp adds around alt-screen applications like Neovim. Unfortunately, there isn't a direct way to completely remove this gap at the moment, but there are some workarounds and updates you should be aware of:

  1. The padding was intentionally added by Warp for compatibility and stability reasons with alt-screen applications like Neovim and k9s. GitHub Issue #2373

  2. As of version v0.2024.11.19.08.02.stable_01 and later, Warp has introduced an opt-in fix for this issue. You can try enabling it by running the following command in your terminal:

    defaults write dev.warp.Warp-Stable AltScreenPaddingOverride true

    GitHub Issue #2373

  3. If the above doesn't work or you're using an older version, some users have found that setting their Neovim theme to match the terminal background color can help make the gap less noticeable. However, this doesn't actually remove the gap. GitHub Issue #2390

  4. The Warp team is aware of this issue and it's being tracked. They are working on potential solutions, but it may take some time due to the complexity of maintaining compatibility with various applications.

If these workarounds don't solve your problem satisfactorily, you might want to consider using a different terminal emulator temporarily until Warp fully addresses this issue. The Warp team seems to be actively working on improvements, so keep an eye on their updates.

Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:
