Ghostty now has scrollbars for macOS drawn using native... macOS GUI widgets of course! Available now in tip releases. GTK will follow very shortly. 50% of Ghostty memes now dead.show more

Ghostty on macOS now also has native GUI for... showing progress bars reported by OSC 9;4. This is, as far as I know, the first macOS terminal to support this (will be part of Ghostty 1.2, coming soon. Available now in tip releases). Esc sequence and script in quoted post.show more

Getting closer now. Navigable search results are now in.... The last hard problem is done. I'm now starting the macOS GUI for all of this (GTK will follow).show more

Command palette coming to Ghostty, implemented with native UI... of course. macOS initially but GTK will follow and be part of the same tagged release, since there's already a mostly complete open PR. Almost all keybinding actions available, will be able to customize entries too.show more

Ghostty on macOS now copies multiple formats into the... clipboard. If you paste into rich text apps now, it'll preserve formatting! If you paste plain text, that'll work too. I think Ghostty may be the only macOS terminal other than the built-in to do this. Coming soon to GTK.show more

Ghostty (and libghostty) now fully implement the Kitty clipboard... protocol to allow apps to read/write non-textual data (like images!). Ghostty is the first to implement the full protocol outside Kitty. The biggest program to support this is probably Claude Code. Demo below. This will be part of Ghostty 1.4, available in nightly now. Available in libghostty now.show more

Thanks to a contributor, Ghostty now has a TUI... for seeing all built-in themes plus a live preview of what they look like. Ghostty has over 300 built-in themes!show more

Thanks to an amazing contributor, Ghostty now supports a... beautiful titlebar with tabs in the titlebar. These are still fully native tabs, we surgically modify macOS's view hierarchy to make them look like this, so they retain all the macOS native behaviors you'd expect.show more

ghostty + chromium + niri + vertical/horizontal tabs +... splits + helium styling macos + windows + linux cmux v2 coming soonshow more

The macOS unobtrusive update feature is now shipped to... tip releases (aka. OpenAI Demogate). Demo shows a real update! Beyond visuals, also mproved functionality, e.g. tip updates will now link to a GH compare view between your commit and the latest in lieu of release notes.show more

Amp now has macOS Satellites! Agents can now spawn... Macs and build, test and run your iOS and macOS applications on them. Rolling out now.show more

Ghostty on Linux getting a bunch of improvements. We... now use Adwaita widgets (if available). Demo of Adwaita tabs, tab overview, header, and about dialog below. Mostly the work of awesome contributors. Note: ignore the missing icon, that's something borked about my NixOS configshow more

Big day for desktops. Advanced Voice is now available... in the macOS and Windows desktop apps.show more

Ghostty Devlog 006, speed edition 🚀. An intro to... SIMD, clever unicode lookup algorithms, and CSI parsing fast-paths all in order to make Ghostty wicked fast. The video below compares the plain-text throughput of Ghostty to another popular macOS terminal. Note that this video only showcases one particular type of speed. There are many other ways to measure the speed of a terminal and I note that in the devlog. The video is a very real world scenario though (i.e. tailing loud log output). 👻show more

Even with close confirmation I sometimes close my terminal... and think "OH FUCK NO." Coming soon to Ghostty, you can undo that. 🥰 (Technical details: we keep the terminal running for a configurable time in the background before terminating for real, similar to email undo send). (macOS only for now, AppKit APIs provide a nice undo manager implementation that eases this quite a bit. I still have to do research on GTK for Linux.)show more

mattn Thanks, I've implemented essentially this using our internal... TUI framework. Just shipped a new release. `amp update` will get it. Let me know if this works for you. (I used the Pinyin IME I'm familiar with on macOS in Ghostty, but I hope the technique will work in general.)show more

Reverse engineered the original Xbox version of Futurama as... native MacOS game in C++show more

Now you can run HTML/JS/WebGPU app as native apps... on macOS/Windows/Linux without any code change, no WebView or browser required, improved performance and much lower memory usage. Here is pure native web app running on macOS. Powered by WerbScene.show more

Native macOS alternative to Obsidian...

This bugs me more than it should. This is... Ghostty, but it happens to other software. Characters on the corners are cropped by the border radius of the window. I like macOS in general, but wish Apple would roll back the rounded corners a tad.show more
