Woah, hashimoto is making a new company called #Superlogical. And the first part they building is a #terminal #multiplex. 🤯 I can kind of see how it relates to #libghostty.
The track record speaks for itself. Basically, I am ready! 😎

🎉 Ah, yet another terminal emulator—because the world just can't get enough of those! 🚀 Dive into the riveting complexities of "ghostel.el," where a table of contents is the star feature. 📚 Spoiler: it's powered by the groundbreaking "libghostty," which we're sure is what everyone's been waiting for. 🙄

🤦♂️ Ah, another day, another #GitHub repository that nobody asked for. 🎉 Welcome to "Boo," a #terminal #multiplexer that does everything GNU Screen does, but with the added thrill of being built on #libghostty. Because, clearly, what we all needed was yet another tool to manage the overwhelming complexity of our super simple terminal sessions. 🙄

Am I the only one looking forward to libghostty because it'll make distributing cross platform terminal games easier?

The work on libghostty-vt continues. I recently exposed the key encoder API to C, which translates key events to escape sequences to send, supporting modern features like Kitty Keyboard Protocol. We also publish per-commit API docs and examples! See: https://libghostty.tip.ghostty.org/group__key.html
On its own, this is a big deal because translating input to encoding for terminals is very hard outside of the basics (standard character input, basically). Even for there terminal emulators, this might be a good idea to centralize on and contribute to.
As a reminder: libghostty-vt is dependency free. :)
There's also a nice community forming in Discord in the #libghostty channel with people building on the early versions of this (and the Zig module). There's still a ton of work to do. A lot of Zig API surface area isn't exposed at all to C yet (like, almost all of it).
Join if you're interested!

I'm totally with the #libghostty idea.
At dayjob, we have needed a #terminal emulator, but held back due to the exact point made: not core business. 🫠
This I feel is more common than people realize. We get a common way, and tooling can improve all over. 😎
