First cut of the terminal core memory model from ZIG/src/terminal:
size, point, style, hyperlink, ref_counted_set, page and PageList.
Design (see docs/rewrite/ARCHITECTURE.md decisions 2-4):
- Cell/Row are 8-byte u64 wrappers with Zig's exact bit offsets.
- Page owns row/cell Vecs plus style set, grapheme and hyperlink maps;
Page::layout reproduces Ghostty's byte-size formula on 64-bit Linux so
scrollback-limit pruning matches.
- PageList keeps nodes in a generation-checked slab with a free list and
list-owned tracked pins addressed by handles.
This is explicitly partial (docs/rewrite/notes/ghostty-terminal-
pagelist.md): 151/202 PageList tests ported; reflow rebuilds a snapshot
instead of Zig's incremental ReflowCursor; point<->pin conversion walks
from the list head (no active/viewport caches); RefCountedSet doesn't
reproduce probe-dependent ID reuse. A follow-up pass finishes parity.
Test Plan:
- cargo test -p ghostty-terminal (239 tests)
Start of the full Rust rewrite of Ghostty 1.3.1 (reference source in
../ghostty). Sets up a workspace whose crates mirror Ghostty's Zig modules
(vt, unicode, datastruct, os, input, config, terminal, font, renderer,
termio, core, apprt-gtk) so porting work can proceed in parallel per crate.
Also adds:
- docs/rewrite/{ARCHITECTURE,PLAN,STATUS,AGENT_GUIDE}.md: crate map, core
design decisions (safe Rust, slab-based PageList, logical capacity
accounting), phased plan, progress tracker, and porting rules.
- Workspace clippy config relaxing pedantic lints that are pure noise for
low-level terminal code (casts, long functions).
- Shared vt types needed by several work packages up front: kitty
keyboard flags (kitty/key.rs) and the CSI separator bitset (SepList).
Test Plan:
- cargo test -p ghostty-vt (3 tests pass)
- cargo clippy -p ghostty-vt --all-targets -- -D warnings
