Three changes that all turned out to be the same shape -- a feature that
worked in one direction, or for one pane kind, and quietly did not in the
others.
CLIPBOARD. Every register write emitted set_clipboard, so deleting one
character threw away whatever the desktop was holding; multi-cursor yank took
the join's early return and emitted nothing at all, so the same key reached
the clipboard on one cursor and not on two. Nothing could READ the clipboard:
the SDL shell had no SDL_GetClipboardText anywhere in it, and the tty shell
never asked for OSC 52, so `p` from another application was dead in both.
Now it is helix's split. y/d/c/p/P/R and the acme chords are the DEFAULT
REGISTER and nothing else; the system clipboard is five words on helix's own
letters -- SPC y, SPC Y, SPC p, SPC P, SPC R -- spelled as builtins so they
land in Help and are executable like every other verb. The one exception is
the tag `y` chord, which still mirrors out because a tag is always insert, so
SPC cannot be pressed there, and copying the path out is the whole point of
the chord.
Reading is a new read_clipboard effect answered by an ordinary Event.paste, so
the round trip is honest about being one: SDL and NSPasteboard answer inside
the same drain, the browser answers a promise, and a terminal answers over
OSC 52 or -- far more often -- refuses. A refused read is a paste that does
not happen, and the request dies at the next keystroke rather than landing
minutes late in whatever pane is focused by then.
The tty shell also enables BRACKETED PASTE now and coalesces
paste_start..paste_end into one event. Before this a paste arrived as a flood
of individual key presses: plausible in insert mode, and in normal mode every
pasted character ran as a command.
n/N. They stepped the armed results buffer and immediately Looked each row, so
you could not walk past a hit without opening it. They are a MOTION now:
select the next look-able text, open nothing, and let Enter decide. What they
step is the largest whitespace-delimited run look.resolve can act on
(look.lookableSpan, wrapper punctuation peeled), over a RING of panes -- every
pane that has performed a look, most recent first, then the output buffers
that have not, newest first, and only if both are empty the pane in front of
you. N is the exact inverse of n, computed rather than remembered: both
directions ask the same question about the same spans and compare against the
column the walk parks on, so x presses one way and x back land exactly where
you started, pane boundaries and the ring's seam included.
A ring rather than a list with two ends because a shell's cursor sits at the
prompt, below everything it has printed, so a walk that could not come round
would have nowhere to go on the very first press -- which is the case n/N were
written for.
One motion everywhere, no pane-kind or buffer-kind special case. The only
thing a buffer may change is the GRAIN of what a step selects, and it does it
with one flag rather than a branch: output_pane.Traits.commands (renamed from
`executes`, which named one reader's behaviour rather than the fact) makes a
row select WHOLE, because a ThemeSel line is a word to run and has no path
inside it to pick out. `]d`/`[d` are not n/N -- they are helix's diagnostic
motions, their job is to ARRIVE, and they still reach searchStep.
THE TTY PROMPT. Leaving raw tty blanked the prompt row, and the command you
had typed at that prompt shares the row, so it went too -- a shell out of tty
read as output only. OSC 133 marks the row CELL by cell, so the two are
separable: config.tty_blank = .prompt cuts the prompt's own columns and leaves
the command, left-hugged at column 0 in line with the output under it rather
than in a bay of blanks. .prompt_and_input is the old behaviour, kept.
Because the row is now something you can put a cursor in, enterTty adds the
hidden prompt width back before asking ghostty to walk the shell's own cursor
to it -- the modal column on a cut row is short by exactly that much.
Verified: unit-test 186/186 (nine new), snap 87/87 (new ttyprompt.snap),
hxdiff 481 and hxparity 561 with 0 mismatches, tty and gui both build. And
against the real binaries rather than the harness: in a pty, SPC y emits OSC
52 carrying exactly the selection while plain y emits nothing, SPC p issues
the read and pastes the reply, and a bracketed paste of "dd..." inserts text
instead of deleting two lines. In a real SDL window, SPC y then SPC p round
trips through the system clipboard while the default register holds different
text. Setting tty_blank back to .prompt_and_input reproduces all 86 old
goldens byte for byte.

The AppKit shell now draws what the core renders, follows the theme without a
relaunch, and builds into something you can hand to someone.
- Pixel attachments. Surface.images was dropped on the floor here, so a PDF
pane showed nothing at all: native_images is now set, pardes_image_s carries
the geometry the core already clipped, and PardesView keeps one CGImage per
(serial, page, revision) so scrolling costs a draw and not a decode. Image
panes get real pixels instead of the petscii fallback.
- Themes take hold live. pardes_tick never advanced the chrome animation, so
every tagline kept the previous theme's colours until the next launch and
the 16 ms re-pump spun for the rest of the session. pardes_theme_bg retires
the hand-agreed #121212 and drives the window background and the titlebar
appearance; a theme with no background of its own now gets a transparent
window over an NSVisualEffectView.
- The cell snaps to whole DEVICE pixels rather than whole points. Monaco
advances 8.4014pt at 14, so ceiling to 9 spaced every column 7.1% wider than
the face was drawn for.
- The dial is one notch per 10 degrees instead of 20, and a release keeps
turning in proportion to how hard it was thrown -- ramping up from zero at
the floor, so a slow twist coasts not a little but not at all.
- A file dropped on the grid is a click plus Look, so it opens beside the pane
it was dropped on. No drop concept was added to the core.
- The titlebar follows the focused pane: proxy icon, filename, and the dirty
dot. File.saved_revision is the watermark that last one needed.
- Config (SPC f c) prints the resolved startup config path.
- build.zig assembles, signs and packages the bundle itself; build-app.sh is
gone. -Dmacos-identity= takes a Developer ID, macos-dmg makes the image, and
the icon is Glenda.

Adds -Dplatform=macos, a fourth backend beside tty, gui and web. Zig keeps the
core, the ptys, every effect and the worker threads; Swift owns NSApplication,
the window, input translation, and drawing the cell grid with CoreText. They
meet at a hand-written C ABI in src/macos/pardes.h, built as a static library
the app links.
The ABI is src/web.zig's boundary with the wasm removed, because both hosts are
the same animal: someone else owns the clock, feeds events in through flat
functions, and reads one packed cell buffer out. The browser proved the shape.
The one divergence is that the browser has no processes and forwards every
effect to JavaScript, whereas forkpty is right here, so src/macos.zig performs
them — spawn, write, resize_pty, save_file, new_file, write_dump, open_link,
set_clipboard. lsp, pipe and watch are answered with nothing and marked; the
core already tolerates that, since the browser answers none of them either.
This deliberately inverts ghostty's split, which was studied first and is
written up in docs/ghostty-macos-notes.md. Ghostty hands Zig a bare NSView*,
installs its own CALayer and owns the frame clock; Swift never renders. Pardes
does the opposite because its frame is already a cell grid and CoreText draws
one natively — the alternative is a second hand-rolled glyph atlas, which is
what most of gui.zig's 4,300 lines already are. It would also have been written
blind: the Swift half cannot be compiled here.
What makes the scaffold verifiable rather than dead code is that the Zig half is
ordinary POSIX and builds and tests on Linux. Borrowing ghostty's best trick,
build.zig translate-C's the header into the test build and src/macos.zig asserts
every constant, struct layout, and exported function's arity and widths against
it. That guard earned its place immediately: pardes_scroll grew a cell
coordinate after the Swift view had been written against the older form.
Skipped, and named as the upgrade path in docs/macos.md: the Xcode project,
xcframework, lipo and codesigning ghostty needs. All four exist for
distribution; a dev build is a swiftc invocation and a directory with a plist.
The Swift app is a scaffold and says so — every uncertain API spelling carries
an UNVERIFIED marker, and no part of it has been compiled.
tty is unaffected: 75/75 snapshot scripts and both unit suites pass.
