How to fix Neovim disappearing when launching a program.

[palmerusaf]

I wanted to post this here in case anyone else ran into this problem. If you launch a GUI app from the terminal this config is setup to automatically hide the terminal. While this is a nice feature it can be problematic if you're launching GUI apps from a terminal based editor. The fix is simple. Just go to .config > hypr > UserConfigs > UserSettings.conf. Then find the line that says enable_swallow = true. It should be in the misc block. Either comment it out or set it to false. There's probably a way to keep this feature but prevent it from executing on Neovim terminals with the regex.

I ended up switching to Neovide. I still use the terminal to launch some GUI apps because I still haven't figured how to get Hyprland's polkit to work with timeshift and backintime-qt. Great project btw. I'm still a noob to Arch and Hyprland, so it's nice having a starting point.
