In docs option reference, for macos-icon info. It is showing two times
similar thing. And Note looks good instead of just text because it wont
work without `custom-style`. So a Big Note is a good highlight.

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.
This commit removes support for building without libadwaita. (Y'all knew
that I just had this sitting in my back pocket). This will need some
serious review to ensure that we haven't lost any functionality.
Fixes#5257
Specify environment variables to pass to commands launched in a terminal
surface. The format is `env=KEY=VALUE`.
`env = foo=bar`
`env = bar=baz`
Setting `env` to an empty string will reset the entire map to default
(empty).
`env =`
Setting a key to an empty string will remove that particular key and
corresponding value from the map.
`env = foo=bar`
`env = foo=`
will result in `foo` not being passed to the launched commands.
Setting a key multiple times will overwrite previous entries.
`env = foo=bar`
`env = foo=baz`
will result in `foo=baz` being passed to the launched commands.
These environment variables _will not_ be passed to commands run by Ghostty
for other purposes, like `open` or `xdg-open` used to open URLs in your
browser.

This adds a new enum value for `macos-non-native-fullscreen`:
`padded-notch`. This value will add padding to the top of the window to
account for the notch on applicable devices while still hiding the
menu.
This value is preferred over "visible-menu" by some people because for
screens without a notch, the window will take up the full height.
The plan in the future is that we may color the padded area when a notch
is present. In this commit it appears as transparent.
This is just a fun change to add a bunch of alternate icons. We don't
want to add too many since this increases the final bundle size but we
also want to have some fun. :)
If a theme was not a file or a directory you could get a crash or a hang
(depending on platform) if the theme references a directory. This patch
also prevents attempts to load from other non-file sources.

This is a bit of a hammer-meets-nail solution, but it's a simple
solution to the problem. The reverse mapping is used to find the
binding that an action is bound to, and it's used by apprt's to populate
the accelerator label in the UI.
The problem is that accelerators in GTK are handled early in the event
handling process and its difficult to get that event mapping to a
specific surface. Therefore, the "performable" prefix was not working.
On macOS, this issue didn't exist because there exists an OS mechanism
to install an event handler earlier than the menu system.
This commit changes the reverse mapping to only include bindings that
are not performable. This way, the keybind always reaches the surface
and can be handled by `Surface.keyCallback` which processes
`performable`.
The caveat is that performable bindings will not show up in the UI
for menu items. This is documented in this commit now. They still work,
its just a UI issue.
More mathematically sound approach, does a much better job of matching
the appearance of non-linear blending. Removed `experimental` from name
because it's not really an experiment anymore.
Fixes#4631
This introduces a mechanism by which parsed config fields can be renamed
to maintain backwards compatibility. This already has a use case --
implemented in this commit -- for `background-blur-radius` to be renamed
to `background-blur`.
The remapping is comptime-known which lets us do some comptime
validation. The remap check isn't done unless no fields match which
means for well-formed config files, there's no overhead.
For future improvements:
- We should update our config help generator to note renamed fields.
- We could offer automatic migration of config files be rewriting them.
- We can enrich the value type with more metadata to help with
config gen or other tooling.
The native window drag region is driven ultimately by the window's
`contentLayoutRect`, so we can just override it in `TerminalWindow`
to return a rect the size of the full window, disabling the gesture
without causing any side effects by altering the responder chain.
This PR addresses #2125 for the Metal renderer. Both options are
available: "Apple-style" blending where colors are blended in a wide
gamut color space, which reduces but does not eliminate artifacts; and
linear blending where colors are blended in linear RGB.
Because this doesn't add support for linear blending on Linux, I don't
know whether the issue should be closed or not.
### List of changes in no particular order
- We now set the layer's color space in the renderer not in the apprt
- We always set the layer to Display P3 color spaces
- If the user hasn't configured their `window-colorspace` to
`display-p3` then terminal colors are automatically converted from sRGB
to the corresponding Display P3 color in the shader
- Background color is not set with the clear color anymore, instead we
explicitly set all bg cell colors since this is needed for minimum
contrast to not break with dark text on the default bg color (try it
out, it forces it fully white right now), and we just draw the
background as a part of the bg cells shader. Note: We may want to move
the main background color to be the `backgroundColor` property on the
`CAMetalLayer`, because this should fix the flash of transparency during
startup (#4516) and the weirdness at the edge of the window when
resizing. I didn't make that a part of this PR because it requires
further changes and my changes are already pretty significant, but I can
make it a follow-up.
- Added a config option for changing alpha blending between "native"
blending, where colors are just blended directly in sRGB (or Display P3)
and linear blending, where colors are blended in linear space.
- Added a config option for an experimental technique that I think works
pretty well which compensates for the perceptual thinning and thickening
of dark and light text respectively when using linear blending.
- Custom shaders can now be hot reloaded with config reloads.
- Fixed a bug that was revealed when I changed how we handle
backgrounds, page widths weren't being set while cloning the screen.
### Main takeaways
Color blending now matches nearly identically to Apple apps like
Terminal.app and TextEdit, not *quite* identical in worst case
scenarios, off by the tiniest bit, because the default color space is
*slightly* different than Display P3.
Linear alpha blending is now available for mac users who prefer more
accurate color reproduction, and personally I think it looks very nice
with the alpha correction turned on, I will be daily driving that
configuration.
### Future work
- Handle primary background color with `CALayer.backgroundColor` instead
of in shader, to avoid issues around edges when resizing.
- Parse color space info directly from ICC profiles and compute the
color conversion matrix dynamically, and pass it as a uniform to the
shaders.
- Port linear blending option to OpenGL.
- Maybe support wide gamut images (right now all images are assumed to
be sRGB).
This commit is quite large because it's fairly interconnected and can't
be split up in a logical way. The main part of this commit is that alpha
blending is now always done in the Display P3 color space, and depending
on the configured `window-colorspace` colors will be converted from sRGB
or assumed to already be Display P3 colors. In addition, a config option
`text-blending` has been added which allows the user to configure linear
blending (AKA "gamma correction"). Linear alpha blending also applies to
images and makes custom shaders receive linear colors rather than sRGB.
In addition, an experimental option has been added which corrects linear
blending's tendency to make dark text look too thin and bright text look
too thick. Essentially it's a correction curve on the alpha channel that
depends on the luminance of the glyph being drawn.
