Commit ad503b8c4fa7 ("linux: consider Xft.dpi to scale the content")
introduced reading gtk-xft-dpi when the X11 build option is enabled.
While the name suggests it is X11-specific (perhaps it was at one
point), gtk-xft-dpi is a GTK setting that can be modified regardless of
GDK backend. GNOME’s Large Text accessibility setting ultimately
modifies it. Outside of desktop environments, it can be set via GTK
configuration files.
Remove the conditional gating the code on X11, since none of the code is
actually X11-specific. While we’re here, document scaling behaviors
under Config.font-size.

On non-MacOS desktop environments (Windows, Gnome, KDE, Xfce, VS Code,
...), `ctrl+ins` and `shift+ins` are system-wide alternate keybindings
(except for terminals) for `Copy` and `Paste` respectively. This PR
explicitly defines them as such in Ghostty's default keybindings.
Using `ctrl+ins` as an alt-keybinding for `Copy` allows
static/context-unaware remapping of `Copy` to `cmd+c` for Linux systems
using Mac keyboards via
[keyd](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/137698#issuecomment-2404192700);
with the default `ctrl+shift+c` keybinding for copy this is basically
impossible (because that binding only applies to terminals).
Renames the top/bottom directions of `goto_split` to up/down. I have
tested this on linux (nixos) but given that `goto_split` is broken on
linux anyway (#2866) there's not a whole lot to test.
I have no way to build on macOS so I can't verify that I've changed
everything correctly for that.
Closes#3237
I realize I'm rolling the dice by opening a PR without a pre-approved
issue, but I'll take that chance. Feel free to close if this isn't
desired; no hard feelings!
Currently, the docs for `cursor-style-blink` have two backticks side by
side in the docs, which end up rendering as actual backticks rather than
a code-formatted blank space:

/>
This change puts a space between the backticks so they render as a
code-formatted space.
This gives people finer-grained control over the coloring of their
window titlebars. Currently only implemented for GTK.

Fixes#3648
The confirm-close-surface configuration can now be set to always
ensuring a confirmation dialog is shown before closing a surface, even
if shell integration indicates no running processes.

Adds info about the MetricModifier config options that they can be used
with percentages, and links to the config option `adjust-cell-width`
that has more info
Based on both context and observed behavior, "now" was intended to be "not" in the paragraph describing the behavior of `focus-follows-mouse` is set to `true`.
Fixes#3114
I forgot that the format gets parsed as a Zig string so putting it in
already parsed made `+list-keybinds` incorrect. It worked either way but
this fixes the `+list-keybinds` CLI action.
# Description
This commit introduces the ability to launch the quick terminal in the
middle position.
## Note to reviewer
- The quick terminal is currently centered. Should we consider adding a
top offset to better align with the screenshot in [the issue](#2494 )?
Should it be configurable?
- On large monitors, half the visible frame might be excessively large.
To mitigate, I am planning to implement #2384 but we should probably
agree on a good default maximum width/height in middle position.
- I also figured out, reloading the configuration does not update the
quick terminal configuration. That is also an issue I will try to fix.
Resolves#2494
I agree to relicense my commit to MIT.

This breaks fixterms encodings for these specific keys so that shells
and other programs that rely on the legacy encoding for these keys will
work by default.
This only does this for macOS because for whatever reason during the
large beta period, only macOS users found this as lacking.
If users want to restore fixterms behaviors, they can rebind these keys
as `unbind`.

The justification there makes sense to me and I think it would be a good
change to make. Copied here:
> There are a few bindings that feel a little weird on macOS. My suggestions:
>
> (1) Equalize Splits
> ```
> keybind = shift+opt+equal=unbind
> keybind = ctrl+cmd+equal=equalize_splits
> ```
> The default hijacks the `±` character on US keyboards. Believe it or not, I do use ± in the terminal. Ctrl+cmd+equal matches the arrow key bindings in the Window > Resize Split menu and thus looks more elegant and is easier to memorize.
>
> (2) Jump to Prompt
> ```
> keybind = cmd+up=jump_to_prompt:-1
> keybind = cmd+down=jump_to_prompt:1
> ```
> These are the bindings in Terminal.app. The default shift-cmd-up/down is usually associated with extending a selection. Cmd-up/down are available (they currently act as simple up/down). I bind them additionally to the defaults.
In a [Discord
thread](https://discord.com/channels/1005603569187160125/1319727495473397791)
someone was having problems running Ghostty because they had
accidentally created a directory called `~/.config/ghostty/config`.
Instead of erroring out Ghostty would hang trying to "read" the
directory. Crashes can also happen if the argument to `--config-file` on
the CLI or a recursively loaded config file.
This patch prevents those hangs or crashes by refusing to read anything
but a plain file (symbolic links to plain files continue to work as
well).
Subsumes #2580 (which has multiple conflicts with main due to recent
changes to metrics); I figured it'd be easier to just implement it this
way.
#2580 claimed to solve #2487 but I don't think it really does- ideally
we can think of a good way to configure each individual cursor type, but
I don't wanna just do something ad hoc and add a bunch of config keys
blindly so I limited the scope of this.
