@mylinuxforwork consider changing the default terminal to kitty. kitty in my opinion is better than alacritty, supports font ligatures too. This is an example of a configuration screenshot that I adapted from alacritty ML4W dotfiles to kitty |

Sorry to open a different post but this is a different issue I'm facing. I changed the default terminal through the "Dot files" App, on the system section from "alacritty" to "kitty" (as this was my terminal emulator of choice before installing ML4W). When I use the keybind SUPER+return it launches kitty just fine. But when I use super+ctrl+return to launch rofi and I want to open for example Neovim, or Yazi it launches those apps in Alacritty.
I created a custom config file under ~/.config/bashrc/custom and added export TERMINAL=kitty then sourced the ~/.bashrc, rebooted but rofi is still opening everything in Alacritty. I uninstalled Alacritty and it correctly launches the apps in kitty, but if I install it back rofi goes back to launching terminal apps in Alacritty. Not really important but if you maybe have an idea what I'm doing wrong I'd appreciate your feedback.
