When integrating zenmode with kitty i needed to do extra digging to understand a configuration issue

Describe the solution you'd like

Setting the kitty configuration is not used when launching kitty, it needs to be terminal launch arguments and for MacOS they define a file that can be used for this. Essentially the arguments specified in the zen mode documentation for kitty need to be applied as part of launching the terminal, the configuration file is applied when launching kitty from kitty.

Validation checking terminal is configured correctly with

kitty @ --to $KITTY_LISTEN_ON set-font-size "+6"
kitty @ --to $KITTY_LISTEN_ON set-font-size "0"

worked great and would be invaluable to anyone with an issue.

Once i followed the FAQ zen mode font scaling worked correctly.

Describe alternatives you've considered

none

Additional context

mostly just a suggestion for doco enhancement to save someone digging around trying to figure it out since it can be a bit overly complex digging around a mix of nvim config, tmux config, kitty config.
