This is quite nice! I found the name zenta slightly inconvenient to remember and type, so I renamed the executable to 'relax', but the help messages still say 'zenta'. As a small fix, maybe you can make the help messages print argv[0] as the executable name?

The thing that’s missing for me is discovery. Release Radar and the Discovery playlist and related artists on Spotify (for me) are currently top tier. I get introductions to artists no one else has with songs I often like. Last.fm used to do this? Maybe? But doesn’t seem like it anymore. Other streaming services, apple, tidal, quobuz, youtube, all seem lacking in one aspect or alter. Are there options on this?

For me spotify's suggestions used to be good but degraded over time. I wonder if ChatGPT would be good at this? I assume so

If I had to guess, it's because terminals don't know what a cursor is. From the terminal's perspective, it is just told to print a solid blinking block at a certain location. Neovide knows what the cursor is because it is communicating directly with Neovim.

A terminal could do this, but there would need to be direct integration into Bash, ZSH, etc.

Yeah true, maybe could be done with heuristics though - in nearly every case, there's only one single blinking block, which is the cursor. However, not everyone has their cursor configured to blink, and there are cases where there are other blinking blocks. Not sure how to deal with that...
