Ports ZIG/src/terminal/stream.zig: the Stream feeds bytes through the
UTF-8 decoder and parser and dispatches every CSI/ESC/OSC/DCS/APC and
C0/C1 control to a Handler as a high-level Action (all 95 Zig
variants). Zig's comptime handler interface becomes a Handler trait with
an associated error type, a required vt() and an optional vt_raw() hook.
Performance: next_slice() processes 4 KiB chunks, finds ESC with memchr
and decodes printable runs in bulk (scalar port of ZIG/src/simd's
index_of / utf8_decode_until_control_seq), plus the CSI parameter fast
path.
Terminals must construct the stream with Stream::new_alloc so the OSC
parser accepts allocating commands (colors, OSC 133), as in Zig.
Minor differences: after a stray UTF-8 byte the rest of the chunk
returns to the fast path, and a spurious Zig warning after CSI 2/5 W is
dropped.
Test Plan:
- cargo test -p ghostty-vt (448 passed; 37/38 stream tests ported,
the skipped one only exercises the C ABI)
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
