Discover resourcesdir with `terminfo/g/ghostty`
as well as existing `terminfo/x/xterm-ghostty`.
This allows either terminfo file to be installed,
notably ncurses only provides a `terminfo/g/ghostty`.
This allows `termio.Exec` to track processes spawned via
`FlatpakHostCommand`, finally allowing Ghostty to function as a
Flatpak.
Alongside this is a few bug fixes:
* Don't add ghostty to PATH when running in flatpak mode since it's
unreachable.
* Correctly handle exit status returned by Flatpak. Previously this was
not processed and contains extra status bits.
* Use correct type for PID returned by Flatpak.
This PR adds a translation for German `de_DE`.
Additionally it excludes all `*.po` files from the typos CI action.
Some comments on the decisions I made (open to discuss them):
- I choosed to use `du` instead of `Sie` as this seems appropriate
to me.
- I added `Window` (`Fenster` in German) to all split commands
as it appears more naturally to me.
Fixes#6633
For macOS, we set LANGUAGE to the priority list of preferred languages
for the app bundle, using the GNU gettext priority list format (colon
separated list of language codes).
This previously was inherited by the termio env. At first, this was by
design, but this has inherent flaws. Namely, the priority list format is
a GNU gettext specific format, and programs that use alternate gettext
implementations (like musl or Python) do not understand it and actually
do the wrong thing (not their fault!).
This change removes the inheritance of LANGUAGE in the termio env. To
make it extra safe, we only do set and unset LANGUAGE when we know we
launch from an app bundle. That was always the desired behavior but this
makes it more explicit.
Sets the LANGUAGE environment variable based on the preferred languages
as reported by NSLocale.
macOS has a concept of preferred languages separate from the system
locale. The set of preferred languages is a list in priority order
of what translations the user prefers. A user can have, for example,
"fr_FR" as their locale but "en" as their preferred language. This would
mean that they want to use French units, date formats, etc. but they
prefer English translations.
gettext uses the LANGUAGE environment variable to override only
translations and a priority order can be specified by separating
the languages with colons. For example, "en:fr" would mean that
English translations are preferred but if they are not available
then French translations should be used.
To further complicate things, Apple reports the languages in BCP-47
format which is not compatible with gettext's POSIX locale format so
we have to canonicalize them. To canonicalize the languages we use
an internal function from libintl. This isn't normally available but
since we compile from source on macOS we can use it. This isn't
necessary for other platforms.
When one develops Ghostty while using Ghostty it could lead to an
interesting conundrum: the freshly built Ghostty would use the parent
Ghostty's resources, which would be stale and not reflect any new
changes to resources. This is especially bad for translators, since
their translations would not be reflected in the newly built Ghostty
if they happen to run it under older Ghostty, which is not only
counterintuitive and also painful in terms of workflow.
Now, on debug builds we always try to use the terminfo detection method
first in order to locate the zig-out/share/ghostty folder, and only fall
back to GHOSTTY_RESOURCES_DIR if the executable is for some reason no
longer in zig-out. You can test this behavior by manually moving the
Ghostty executable out of zig-out, and then launching it with and without
Ghostty.

Previously, Ghostty used a static API for async event handling: io_uring
on Linux, kqueue on macOS. This commit changes the backend to be dynamic
on Linux so that epoll will be used if io_uring isn't available, or if
the user explicitly chooses it.
This introduces a new config `async-backend` (default "auto") which can
be set by the user to change the async backend in use. This is a
best-effort setting: if the user requests io_uring but it isn't
available, Ghostty will fall back to something that is and that choice
is up to us.
Basic benchmarking both in libxev and Ghostty (vtebench) show no
noticeable performance differences introducing the dynamic API, nor
choosing epoll over io_uring.
`WINDOWID` is the conventional environment variable for scripts that
want to know the X11 window ID of the terminal, so that it may call
tools like `xprop` or `xdotool`. We already know the window ID for
window protocol handling, so we might as well throw this in for
convenience.
Multiple fixes to prevent file descriptor leaks:
- libxev eventfd now uses CLOEXEC
- linux: cgroup clone now uses CLOEXEC for the cgroup fd
- termio pipe uses pipe2 with CLOEXEC
- pty master always sets CLOEXEC because the child doesn't need it
- termio exec now closes pty slave fd after fork
There still appear to be some fd leaks happening. They seem related to
GTK, they aren't things we're accessig directly. I still want to
investigate them but this at least cleans up the major sources of fd
leakage.
The variant format string `^aay` is said to be equivalent to
`g_variant_new_bytestring_array`. Given that no length parameter is
provided, glib assumed a null-terminated array, causing a crash as glib
exceed the read boundaries to copy arbitrary memory.
This commit replaces the array construction code to use its arena
equivalents instead of glib, and make sure that the resulting array is
null-terminated.
