@ -123,11 +123,6 @@ Ghostty supports some features that require shell integration. I am aiming
to support many of the features that
[Kitty supports for shell integration](https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/shell-integration/).
Ghostty will automatically inject the shell integration code for `zsh` and
`fish`. Other shells are not supported. You can also manually load them
in many cases (see `src/shell-integration`). **If you want to disable this feature,**
set `shell-integration = none` in your configuration file.
The currently support shell integration features in Ghostty:
* We do not confirm close for windows where the cursor is at a prompt.

#### Shell Integration Installation and Verification
**On macOS,** Ghostty will automatically inject the shell integration code for `zsh` and
`fish`. Other shells are not supported. You can also manually load them
in many cases (see `src/shell-integration`). **If you want to disable this feature,**
set `shell-integration = none` in your configuration file.
**On Linux,** automatic shell integration requires that you set the
`GHOSTTY_RESOURCES_DIR` environment variable to point to the
`zig-out/share` directory after building Ghostty from source.
To validate this directory the file `$GHOSTTY_RESOURCES_DIR/terminfo/ghostty.terminfo`
should exist.
To verify shell integration is working, look for the following log lines:
```
info(io_exec): using Ghostty resources dir from env var: /Applications/Ghostty.app/Contents/Resources
info(io_exec): shell integration automatically injected shell=termio.shell_integration.Shell.fish
```
If you see any of the following, something is not working correctly.
The main culprit is usually that `GHOSTTY_RESOURCES_DIR` is not pointing
to the right place.
```
ghostty terminfo not found, using xterm-256color
or
shell could not be detected, no automatic shell integration will be injected
```
