In practice, the primary and selection clipboards are treated exactly
the same, but this allows OSC 52 sequences to use either 's' or 'p' as
the clipboard target.
Fixes#880
If a command is specified but it can't be found, then we try to fallback
to a default command like "sh" and log the issue. This prevents Ghostty
from simply exiting.
This enables shifted alt-prefixed keys, such as `shift+alt+.` on
US standard becoming `M->`. To do this, we needed to fix a few bugs:
(1) translation mods should strip alt even if other mods are set
(2) AppKit translation event needs to construct new characters with
the translation mods.
(3) Alt-prefix handling in KeyEncoder needs to allow ASCII utf8
translations even for macOS.
Fixes#872
In #867 we fixed macos-option-as-alt, but unfortunately AppKit ALSO does
some translation so some behaviors were not working correctly.
Specifically, when you had macos-option-as-alt set, option+e would
properly send `esc+e` to the pty but it would ALSO set the dead key
state for "`" since AppKit was still translating the option key.
This commit introduces a function to strip alt when necessary from the
translation modifiers used at the AppKit layer, preventing this
behavior.
This regressed sometime -- I can't find the exact commit -- but in any
case I've moved this handling directly into the KeyEncoder so we can
unit test it and prevent future regressions.
Fixes#865
Related to #861
In #861, we fixed a deadlock that could happen if the writer mailbox was
full from the reader thread by waking up the writer thread for
processing.
Unfortunately, the writer thread ALSO handles messages that require the
terminal lock (i.e. resizing, focus state, etc.). If the mailbox
contains these messages, it cannot make forward progress on the writes
(which do not require a lock). This makes it possible still under heavy
write scenarios to fully deadlock the read/write threads.
This commit modifies the behavior so that while we are attempting to
queue a writer message after it fails, we release the lock. This is a
very slow path since we are releasing/acquiring locks under heavy
contention. We can improve it in the future but for now its okay because
this is also a rare situation that only happens under the heaviest loads
that also produce heavy writes.
