Shell Integration Code

This is the shell-specific shell-integration code that is used for the shell-integration feature set that Ghostty supports.

This README is meant as developer documentation and not as user documentation. For user documentation, see the main README.

Implementation Details

Bash

The bash shell integration must currently be sourced manually from bash/ghostty.bash.

Fish

For Fish, Ghostty prepends to the XDG_DATA_DIRS directory. Fish automatically loads configuration files in <XDG_DATA_DIR>/fish/vendor_conf.d/*.fish on startup, allowing us to automatically integrate with the shell. For details on the Fish startup process, see the Fish documentation.

Zsh

For zsh, Ghostty sets ZDOTDIR so that it loads our configuration from the zsh directory. The existing ZDOTDIR is retained so that after loading the Ghostty shell integration the normal Zsh loading sequence occurs.
