Devlog Libghostty Kitty Graphics Protocol Support
Kitty The Fast Featureful Gpu Based Terminal Emulator Quickstart The libghostty zig and c api as well as the ghostling demo application have all been updated to support the kitty graphics protocol. this includes the ability to parse and read information about. Ghostty gui has supported kitty graphics since version 1.0 and i believe we have one of the most comprehensive kitty graphics protocol implementations besides kitty itself. for example, we support unicode placeholders which lets the protocol work in tmux, which is i think only supported by ghostty besides kitty.
St Simple Terminal Suckless Org Software That Sucks Less Kitty keyboard protocol support is broken with some inputs. this is due to limitations of the underlying raylib input system; it doesn't support rich enough input events to fully and correctly implement the kitty keyboard protocol. this is a known issue. To check if a terminal emulator supports the graphics protocol the best way is to send the above query action followed by a request for the primary device attributes. Ghostty is a fast, feature rich, and cross platform terminal emulator that uses platform native ui and gpu acceleration. Libghostty vt is extracted from ghostty and inherits all of the real world benefits: simd optimized parsing, very good unicode support, highly optimized memory usage, a robust fuzzed and valgrind tested codebase, excellent feature compatibility such as parsing kitty graphics protocol or tmux control mode, and more.

I'm using the new ghostty terminal on macos and linux it is multiplatform (windows will come later) and is comparable to kitty or wezterm. my understanding is that it aims to support the same kind of display image in terminal functionality as kitty. For information about terminal state management and screen operations, see terminal core and screen management. for vt parsing and action execution, see stream processing and action dispatch. The library inherits ghostty's battle tested features: simd optimized parsing for speed, excellent unicode support, memory efficient design, and compatibility with advanced protocols like kitty graphics protocol and tmux control mode. Real terminal core – the first release, libghostty vt, will extract and package up ghostty’s proven internals, including unicode support, kitty graphics, simd optimized parsing, and more.
