Who cares when Ghostty exists though...
- john_alan 11mo agoyour spelled iTerm2 wrong :)
- fukka42 11mo agoHow do I run this on Windows and Linux?
- latexr 11mo agoGhostty aims to be cross-platform (I think Windows support isn’t there yet but is planned), but iTerm2 is macOS-only.
- Brajeshwar 11mo agoI was on iTerm2 for a pretty loong time. You should try out Ghostty.
- WesolyKubeczek 11mo agoYou meant "iTerm2 with no scrollbars and no scrollback history search" was spelled wrong. (yes I know they are working on it; but I also know iTerm2 and Konsole have had them since about forever, and I use that feature a lot, so it's kinda major impediment)
- Spivak 11mo agoHow are all of you spelling WezTerm wrong.
- slenk 11mo agoJust started using this - it's pretty nice. Very customizable but it makes my oh-my-zsh setup look like crap with it's fonts. I started using it since it's cross platform and I use chezmoi, but the config quickly gets complicated if you want things like folders in your tab titles, etc
- speedgoose 11mo agoiTerm2 is not in the same league when it comes to speed.
- speedgoose 11mo agoI’m on ghostty but warp is a lot more than a terminal. I used to consider their product to be a shitty AI powered terminal until I saw a demo of it. Now I consider it as a fair AI agent application that has a good CLI integration and some notebook features.
- Aurornis 11mo agoGhostty is an interesting project, but it’s not usable yet for those of us who use scrollback history search until they ship that feature https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/issues/189 https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/issues/189 The growing popularity of ghostty has made me realize a lot of people don’t use scroll back history search. I use it frequently to save time and avoid having to rerun time intensive tasks to pipe them through grep or tee everything to a file.
- jorl17 11mo agoThis exactly! Can't move from iterm2 until this feature, which is absolutely essential to me, is implemented. Love the work they're doing though!!
- xbar 11mo agoAre there any workarounds?
- antew 11mo agoIn my ghostty config I use: scrollback-limit = 512000000 keybind = super+f=write_scrollback_file:open It writes it to a temporary file and then opens the file in the default text editor when I hit Cmd+F.
- jasonjmcghee 11mo agotmux But there's a whole thread on other workarounds etc. Apparently it's on the roadmap. https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/issues/189 https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/issues/189
- s_trumpet 11mo agoThe other thing keeping me on iTerm is Ghostty lacking tab support in quake mode
- tristan957 11mo agoI'm pretty certain that exists, at least on macOS, but I don't use that feature. I just follow development. Source: ghosty maintainer
- matwood 11mo agoI like Ghostty, but it's still missing a few features I need. Warp was interesting, but it was honestly overwhelming when I was simply reaching for a terminal. For now, I'm back on Terminal.app until Ghostty catches up feature wise.
