Is that 0x1_0000 a typo? Shouldn't it be 0x1_000 or 0x10_000 instead?

Note that it's not my code, nor am I familiar with it. I just had it lying around on my disk to try out Alacritty.

Here's the line in question: https://github.com/jwilm/alacritty/blob/master/alacritty_ter...

I agree 0x1_000 or 0x10_000 would make more sense, but it doesn't look like the actual value used is hugely significant.

[sph → Narishma]

It makes sense to group hexadecimal numbers by two (nibbles).

In this case 0x1_0000 is the least-significant bit of the third byte.

If that's a bit flag encoded in a 32bit value, I also like 0x0001_0000 for clarity.
