This is the integration step that turns the ported crates into a working
terminal: `cargo run` now opens a GTK window running the user's shell.
ghostty-core ports App.zig, Surface.zig (split into keyboard, mouse,
binding, clipboard and config submodules), surface_mouse.zig and
global.zig, and implements the runtime traits. perform_binding_action
handles every binding action.
Cross-crate integration:
- The core<->runtime traits (CoreApp, CoreSurface, RtApp, RtSurface,
Waker) move from apprt-gtk into ghostty_apprt::runtime_api so the core
stays runtime-agnostic; Scrollbar/RendererHealth stand-ins are replaced
by the real terminal/renderer types.
- termio now uses ghostty_renderer::state::{State, SharedState}; the
renderer calls kitty_update; image-storage-limit is applied at init
and on config change.
- The search thread locks the terminal through a TerminalLock trait so
it can share the render state mutex; termio's Wakeup gained a hook to
wake the renderer thread.
- apprt-gtk: GL proc addresses are resolved through libepoxy's
epoxy_glFoo pointer variables (plain glFoo symbols resolved to null),
default DPI fixed to 96, libadwaita version read without GTK init so
--version works headless.
The root binary dispatches +actions to ghostty-cli (list-fonts,
show-face and new-window are now wired) and otherwise runs the GTK app
with the real core.
Verified at runtime on Wayland and X11: shell prompt and colored output
render, child exit closes the window cleanly. Not yet verified: keyboard
and mouse input, clipboard, IME, tabs and splits (no key injection was
possible in this environment). GHOSTTY_DEBUG_SCREENSHOT=<png> dumps the
renderer's last frame for headless checks.
Test Plan:
- cargo test --workspace (2890 passed)
- cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings

cargo run
Ports ZIG/src/apprt/{action,structs,surface,ipc,runtime}.zig into
ghostty-apprt: the Action enum performed by the core on the app runtime
(all 65 variants with docs), Target<S> generic over the runtime's
surface handle, clipboard/size/scale/selection structs, the core->surface
Message enum with a Mailbox over an AppMailbox trait, and IPC action
types for +new-window.
Owned Strings and Arc<Config> replace Zig's borrowed slices/pointers.
Scrollbar and RendererHealth are local stand-ins until core integration.
The embedded C API and browser runtime are out of scope.
Test Plan:
- cargo test -p ghostty-apprt (16 tests)
