Escaped config strings (ghostty_os::osbytes) kept reaching OS
boundaries undecoded, and decoding was occasionally applied to plain
text. The root cause was that both were plain `String`s. Now:
- `EncodedOs` is a newtype (no Display/AsRef<Path>) that decodes only
via to_os/to_path/to_bytes/to_wide; plain text enters via
from_plain_text. OS helpers (env, home, xdg, passwd, resources dir,
path expansion), config::Path, WorkingDirectory, theme/file_load/edit
paths, terminal pwd, OpenUrl/Pwd actions and termio cwd use it, so the
compiler forces decoding at every boundary. os::open takes &OsStr.
Config output is unchanged.
Fixes all rows of docs/rewrite/notes/review-rv5-codex.md (final-Z7.md):
screen-file copy; regex/OSC 8 URLs no longer decoded (regression);
lossless Windows WTF-8/WTF-16 for args, env and CreateProcessW; Windows
resources dir/TERMINFO; color OSC request lists and X11 color lookup no
longer allocate globally (C zero-allocation test extended); macOS Mach
handler resumes all threads before KERN_FAILURE (hang regression) and
SIGABRT minidumps go through the exception thread; plus open-config,
background images, crash dir, ssh cache, exe dir/PATH, fontconfig
filenames, file links, kitty TMPDIR, .hushlogin and benchmark paths.
The typing also surfaced and fixed gtk-custom-css, bell audio, bash
HISTFILE, OSC 52 writes and the C config getters.
Test Plan:
- cargo test --workspace (3376 passed)
- just check-macos (both), just check-windows, just check-wasm
- diff <(ghostty-rs +show-config --default --docs) \
<(ghostty +show-config --default --docs)
Resolves the 13 rows still partial in docs/rewrite/notes/review-rv4-
codex.md (details in final-Z5.md):
- Escaped config strings are decoded to raw bytes at every OS boundary:
Flatpak cwd/argv to D-Bus, screen-file paths, the default config
template, GHOSTTY_RESOURCES_DIR/TERMINFO/shell integration/
bindtextdomain consumers, custom shader loading, list-themes hyperlinks.
- osbytes escapes literal U+FDD0 on non-Unix too (bijective everywhere);
the GTK paste dialog only decodes text that was actually encoded.
- shadertoy: whole-array uses of iChannelTime rebuild a plain float[4]
from the std140-padded members (naga-validated, MSL offsets checked).
- libghostty-vt: the OSC parser holds caller-allocated storage inline
and command payloads borrow from it, so ghostty_osc_end performs no
global allocations (verified from Rust and C).
- crash: aarch64 Linux minidump context fixed; macOS fatal signals record
siginfo, registers and a fault-safe stack walk.
- tripwire: selectionString map allocation-failure cleanup test ported.
- libghostty-vt emits the versioned soname libghostty-vt.so.0 at build
time (no patchelf needed at install).
Test Plan:
- cargo test --workspace (3342 passed)
- just check-macos; just check-macos x86_64-apple-darwin;
just check-windows; just check-wasm
- cargo check --target aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu -p ghostty-crash
rustfmt.toml sets group_imports, imports_granularity and imports_layout,
which are nightly-only; agents formatted with stable rustfmt, which
ignored them. This is a formatting-only pass with `cargo +nightly fmt`.
Test Plan:
- cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
- cargo test --workspace
Addresses the partial ports listed in
docs/rewrite/notes/review-completeness-codex.md (details in
docs/rewrite/notes/gaps-X2.md):
- Flatpak: the exit watcher no longer consumes the host command; a
shared FlatpakSignalHandle lets closing a surface still SIGHUP the
host process group.
- Child environment is byte-preserving end to end (ghostty_os::EnvMap
of OsStrings) and Snap paths are filtered like filterSnapPaths.
- argv handling no longer panics on non-UTF-8 arguments.
- URI percent-decoding keeps raw bytes; OSC 7 pwd is passed through
without lossy conversion.
- Keybinding comparison/hashing uses full Unicode case folding from a
table generated from CaseFolding.txt (Unicode 17.0.0).
- Link regexes set Oniguruma's whole-search retry limit through the new
minimal ghostty-onig crate (one SAFETY-commented FFI call).
- OSC 9 NUL-capacity check ordering matches Zig.
- Wayland registry binds/clears globals advertised after startup.
- Custom shaders may pass sampler2D to helper functions (naga adapter).
- +list-themes preview renders OSC 8 links, styled underlines and
follows color-scheme reports.
Also includes the inspector's integration edits in shared files
(renderer state hook, termio VT recording, core/apprt-gtk wiring), X1's
config/input/cli additions for completion generation, and a fix for a
race in the termio backpressure test (it wrote before `stty raw`
applied, so the cooked line discipline dropped bytes past MAX_CANON).
Test Plan:
- cargo test --workspace
- cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
Cleanup pass over items collected in docs/rewrite/INTEGRATION_TODO.md:
- OSC 133 printf-q / percent decoders live once in
ghostty_vt::string_encoding; ghostty-os re-exports them.
- CursorStyle and clipboard codepoint map entries have one definition
(ghostty-terminal); ghostty-config now depends on ghostty-terminal.
- ActionKey::docs() trailing blank lines fixed at the source; cli's
workaround removed (+list-actions --docs still byte-identical).
- x11_color exposes names in original case; cli no longer re-parses
rgb.txt.
- One cgroup scope wait loop (ghostty_os::cgroup::wait_for_scope).
- Flatpak passwd lookup implemented in ghostty-os via a local pty.
- +version shows the rustc version captured at build time.
Resources: dev builds find <workspace>/resources automatically (keeping
Ghostty's sentinel-file detection and GHOSTTY_RESOURCES_DIR);
scripts/gen-terminfo.sh (just terminfo) regenerates the compiled
terminfo; `just install [PREFIX]` installs binary, share/ghostty,
terminfo, desktop/D-Bus/systemd/metainfo files and icons.
Test Plan:
- cargo test for vt, os, config, input, cli
- diff `+list-keybinds`, `+list-actions --docs`, `+show-config --default`
against /usr/bin/ghostty
Ports the parsing half of ZIG/src/terminal into the ghostty-vt crate:
- Parser state machine with a compile-time generated parse table and
the UTF-8 decoder
- OSC parser incl. all sub-parsers (titles, colors, clipboard, hyperlinks,
semantic prompts/OSC 133, OSC 9 / ConEmu, iTerm2, kitty clipboard,
color and text-sizing protocols, context signals)
- CSI, SGR, modes table with save/restore, charsets, ansi, device status,
mouse shapes, APC, DCS (incl. XTGETTCAP), tmux control-mode parser
- color palette / X11 color names, kitty color and graphics command parser
Deviations from Zig (documented in docs/rewrite/notes/ghostty-vt-W*.md):
parser actions own their payloads instead of borrowing parser buffers;
OSC strings are Vec<u8>; non-exhaustive Zig enums gain an Other(raw)
variant; tmux regexes replaced by equivalent hand-written matchers.
Known follow-up: semantic_prompt.rs carries local copies of the printf-q
and percent decoders that belong in ghostty-os.
Test Plan:
- cargo test -p ghostty-vt: 395 passed, 1 ignored (skipped in Zig too)
- cargo clippy -p ghostty-vt --all-targets -- -D warnings: clean
