This replaces #7433. The improvements are:
1) Install the systemd user service in the proper directory depending
on if it's a 'user' install or a 'system' install. This is controlled
either by using the `--system` build flag (as most packages will) or by
the `-Dsystem-package` flag.
2) Add the absolute path to the `ghostty` binary in the application
file, the DBus service, and the systemd user service. This is done so
that they do not depend on `ghostty` being in the `PATH` of whatever
is launching Ghostty. That `PATH` is not necessarily the same as the
`PATH` in a user shell (especially for DBus activation and systemd user
services).
3) Adjust the DBus bus name that is expected by the system depending on
the optimization level that Ghostty is compiled with.
Cleans up the logic, checks for out of bounds using rows instead of
sel.contains because that excludes cases where a rectangle selection
doesn't include the leftmost column.
Also adds test for clipping behavior of rectangular selections.
Fixes an issue where rectangle selections would appear visually wrong if
their start or end were out of the viewport area, because when cloning
them the restored pins were defaulting to the start and end of the row
instead of the appropriate column.
GHOSTTY_VERSION was mistakenly referenced but is never set. Use
TERM_PROGRAM_VERSION which is actually provided by Exec.zig from
build_config.version_string.
- Fix fallback path from full path to "src" since full path is built
later
- Extract duplicate code from listCachedHosts and clearCache into
runCacheCommand helper
- Addresses feedback from @00-kat
- Clarify that +list-ssh-cache shows shell integration cached hosts
- Add note about +clear-ssh-cache command and when to use it
Addresses mitchellh's feedback on action descriptions.
Updates Config.zig documentation to reflect that SSH cache management is
now handled by proper CLI actions (+list-ssh-cache and +clear-ssh-cache)
rather than shell wrapper commands.
Fixes documentation missed in e8c8a51.
- Add +list-ssh-cache and +clear-ssh-cache CLI actions
- Remove ghostty() wrapper functions from all shell integrations
- Improve variable naming in shell scripts for readability
Addresses @00-kat's feedback about CLI discoverability and naming
consistency. The new CLI actions follow established Ghostty patterns
and are discoverable via `ghostty --help`, while maintaining clean
separation of concerns between shell logic and cache management.
Addresses feedback about separation of concerns in shell integration
scripts.
Extracts host caching logic to
`src/shell-integration/shared/ghostty-ssh-cache` and updates all four
shell integrations to use the shared script. The `shared/` subdirectory
preserves the existing organizational pattern where all shell-specific
code lives in subdirectories. This cleanly separates SSH transport logic
from cache management while reducing code duplication by ~25%.
All existing SSH integration behavior remains identical.
Rewrote shell functions to support the two new flags for
shell-integration-features:
- ssh-env: TERM compatibility + best effort environment variable
propagation (anything beyond TERM will depend on what the remote host
allows)
- ssh-terminfo: automatic terminfo installation with control socket
orchestration
- Flags work independently or combined
Implementation optimizations:
- ~65% code reduction through unified execution path
- Eliminated GHOSTTY_SSH_INTEGRATION environment variable system
- Replaced complex function dispatch with direct flag detection
- Consolidated 4 cache helper functions into single _ghst_cache()
utility
- Simplified control socket management (removed multi-step
orchestration)
- Subsequent connections to cached hosts are now directly executed and
more reliable
New additions:
- If ssh-terminfo is enabled, ghostty will be wrapped to provide users
with convenient commands to invoke either of the two utility functions:
`ghostty ssh-cache-list` and `ghostty ssh-cache-clear`
- Add ssh_env and ssh_terminfo flags to ShellIntegrationFeatures
- Remove SSHIntegration enum and ssh-integration config option
- Update setupFeatures to handle new flags via reflection
- Remove setupSSHIntegration function and all references
Integrates SSH functionality into existing shell-integration-features
system for better consistency and user control.
Need a sanity check on this new approach for "full" to help determine if
it's worth additional iteration/refinement.
It solves the double auth issue, successfully propagates env vars, and
avoids output noise for connections that happen after terminfo is
installed. The only issue I don't have time to fix tonight is the fact
that it drops the MOTD for cached (re)connections.
- Cache known hosts with terminfo in
$GHOSTTY_RESOURCES_DIR/terminfo_hosts
- Skip installation step for cached hosts (single connection instead of
two)
- Use secure file permissions (600) and atomic writes
- Extract SSH target safely from command arguments
- Maintains full functionality while improving user experience on
repeated connections
- Fix elvish function name mismatch and use conj for list operations
- Simplify terminfo installation command per ghostty docs (tic -x -)
- Fix conditional structure to ensure error messages always print
- Remove redundant checks and optimize array initialization
- Use consistent patterns across bash, fish, elvish, and zsh
implementations
Add detailed explanations of shell function behavior, TERM compatibility
trade-offs, environment variable propagation, and authentication
requirements per maintainer feedback.
Keeps only functional additions for SSH integration wrapper,
preserving original line breaks and indentation to minimize
diff noise per maintainer feedback.

Adds support for background images via the `background-image` config.
Resolves#3645, supersedes PRs #4226 and #5233.
See docs of added config keys for usage details.
> [!NOTE]
> Unlike what is implied by the original issue, because this is
implemented in the renderer it is inherently per-surface not per-window,
meaning a window with a split will have two copies of the background
image.
### Future work
- We should probably introduce code in the apprts that tells surfaces
their position and size relative to the window, which would allow us to
add a `background-image-area` config with options for `surface` and
`window` to control that behavior (and probably default it to `window`).
That apprt code would also allow for window-relative custom shader
locations, which is also a fairly common user request, so I think it's
worth it.
- Currently if you use a high res background image this is fairly
inefficient, since each surface independently loads a copy of the
background image. On systems with limited VRAM this could be an issue
for users who use a lot of surfaces, so it may be worth making a shared
image cache to avoid this problem.
- ~~It's probably worth using compressed texture formats for images,
I'll look in to doing that.~~ (c43702c)
BPTC is required to be available OpenGL >= 4.2 and our minimum is 4.3 so
this is safe in terms of support. I tested briefly in a VM and didn't
encounter any problems so this should just be a complete win.
(Note: texture data is already automatically compressed on Metal)
