Zig's KeyEvent.utf8 and the embedded API's key/preedit text are byte
slices passed through to key encoding and the pty; the port converted
them lossily to UTF-8.
- KeyEvent.utf8 is &[u8] end to end (ghostty-input encoder, core,
ghostty-lib C API, libghostty-vt key events, GTK callers). Where Zig
validates with Utf8View (alternates, modify-other-keys, ctrl CSI-u,
associated text, binding unicode lookup) invalid text takes the same
"no UTF-8" fallback.
- Invalid preedit UTF-8 behaves like Zig's `try Utf8View.init`: the
prior preedit is cleared and marked dirty, the callback returns an
error (logged by the C API) and no preedit is set.
- The inspector key widget shows invalid key text lossily, display only.
Test Plan:
- cargo test --workspace --no-fail-fast (3407 passed)
- cargo test -p ghostty-lib --features test-platform (C-API key text
0xff 0xfe reaches the pty unchanged)
- just check-macos (both), just check-windows, just check-wasm
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
Ports ZIG/src/inspector (the Dear ImGui terminal inspector) as the
ghostty-inspector crate using dear-imgui-rs + dear-imgui-glow (imgui-rs
lacks a safe docking API): screen, modes, keyboard events, terminal IO
/ VT sequence log with filtering, cell inspector with picking, page
list, renderer and size/font info, with Ghostty's docking layout. The
crate denies unsafe except a single dock.rs module wrapping DockBuilder.
GTK: imgui_widget, inspector_widget and inspector_window classes with
their blueprints replace the former no-op; ctrl+shift+i toggles the
inspector window.
Core: activate/deactivate hooks, key event and mouse recording, and VT
stream recording in termio while an inspector is active, as in Zig;
overlay features reach the renderer through an InspectorHook on the
render state. The debug input replay hook gained inspector-screenshot/
click/scroll steps used to verify all tabs in the real app.
Deviations: font size scales with the display scale instead of Zig's
fixed 16*2; pop-out dock splits apply one frame later; DCS/APC
descriptions are approximated.
Test Plan:
- cargo test -p ghostty-inspector (15 incl. headless full-UI draw)
- cargo test -p ghostty-core --test e2e_inspector (4)
