* terminal: memoize the motion surface instead of dumping the scrollback per keyGabriel Schneider2026-08-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Every keystroke in a shell pane rebuilt the motion surface from scratch: shellRows dumped ghostty's WHOLE history+active grid, split it, blanked the prompt rows and handed back slices into the scratch arena, which the next update threw away. A pane sitting on a multi-megabyte agent transcript paid an O(scrollback) dump per press of `j`, and paid it once or twice per key, since flatSurface then rebuilt the same rows joined by '\n' beside it. The dump is now memoized against the pane it was built for (term_pane.RowsCache on Pardes.shell_rows), gpa-owned rather than scratch-arena because the whole point is to outlive the update that built it. One entry, not a table: the surface is built for the pane the cursor is in, and a second pane asking would only double a multi-megabyte buffer for a slot it is about to lose again. A pane that is not the live one is answered from the arena as before. The lifetime rule is the part that would have rotted silently, so it is one rule and it is written down: `rows` is handed out to callers, so everything that notices the entry has gone bad — output arrived, the grid reflowed, the pane died, another pane wants the slot — only marks it `stale`, and the buffers are freed in exactly two places, `sweep` at the TOP of an update before any handler can be holding them, and `reset` when the editor goes away. Nothing frees mid-update. dropPane clears the pointer immediately though: a freed pane's address comes back from the allocator as a different pane, and an entry still naming it would answer for the wrong grid. Two things fall out of having the join already: - flatSurface returns the memo's `text` verbatim when the lines it was handed are the cached rows untouched, instead of rebuilding the join. - paneCursorLines returns `rows` directly when there is no edit buffer, where it used to copy the array one slice at a time to produce exactly what it was given. One bug on the way past, in the same function: an EMPTY edit buffer writes one line but modal.lineCount("") is 0, so `ls` was sized one short of what the loop writes — the same floor the paste site needs. Killing a whole line (`A<C-u>`, `d%`) on a buffer covering the last row made that a length of zero. And test/perf.zig grows the axis that would have caught this: a terminal scoreboard beside the file one, three scrollback fixtures (64 KiB, 1 MiB, 8 MiB — half the ceiling) against render / output / resize-rows / resize-cols / key-down / edit-char, sharing the existing text and JSON reports and the --base comparison. resize-cols and resize-rows are both there because a COLUMN change reflows every page in the list and a row change does not. Measured on that table: key-down is 142 / 630 / 636 us across the three fixtures — flat from 1 MiB to 8 MiB, which is the dump being gone, and render flat at ~110 us throughout. What remains of key-down's step at 1 MiB is the linear scan indexOf refuses to index for a terminal; that is now a ponytail waiver naming its own price (615 us against 140 us) and the threading through paneOff/panePos/paneLineStart it would cost, to be done the day 0.6 ms shows up next to something anybody can feel.
* gui: the ground is the theme's own background, not a hand-agreed #121212Gabriel Schneider2026-08-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SDL shell painted 18,18,18 behind the grid and inside every cell the core left at its default background, whatever the theme was wearing. Under a light theme that is a black line along the bottom and right edges of the window -- the strip left over when the window is not a whole number of cells -- measured two pixels tall with acme at 1728x2102. The ground is now core.theme().bg, read once a frame, the way PardesView reads pardes_theme_bg: a Theme command takes hold without a relaunch, and it is the theme's OWN background rather than the animated chrome colour, because document backgrounds switch the instant the theme does. The other half of the macOS fix does not port. A theme that declares no background (the curated dark, every vendored *_transparent) goes see-through over an NSVisualEffectView there; here it keeps the terminal-native dark, because SDL's GPU API refuses to claim a SDL_WINDOW_TRANSPARENT window at all -- 'The GPU API doesn't support transparent windows', SDL_gpu.c, since D3D12 has no transparent swapchain. Tried it: the shell fails at ClaimWindowForGPUDevice and exits. bg_default now says so where the next person will look for it. Verified on a real window under niri: with Theme acme the bottom strip is #ffffea where it was #121212.
* merge the macOS app branch: the AppKit shell, pixel attachments, live ↵Gabriel Schneider2026-08-11
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | theming, and mupdf -Djpx Three commits off 38e9919 (macos-app@upstream) merged into main's ghostty bump. No textual conflicts, and two things the merge needed: - nested.zig asked libc for fstatat. Darwin has it; on linux std.c declares it `void` (glibc hides it behind a versioned symbol std cannot name), so the tty build stopped at 'type void not a function'. statNoFollow keeps fstatat on darwin and asks statx on linux for the same three fields, which is what this file did before the branch generalized it to both platforms. - .DS_Store rode along with a797a1a. Deleted, and .gitignore now says so. linux: snap 86/86, unit-test, image-harness and mupdf-check green. nested.zig also type-checks for aarch64-macos.
| * macos: pixel attachments, live theming, and a signed appGabriel Schneider2026-08-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Esc alternates between the last two panes; Toggleterm is goneGabriel Schneider2026-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Esc ran Toggleterm, which hopped between the newest DOC and the newest TERMINAL. That distinction never earned its keep. It made Esc unpredictable — which of three panes you landed on depended on their kinds, not on where you had been — and it could not alternate between two files at all, which is the case you hit most. Editing two files, Esc did nothing. The replacement already existed. Last (SPC j j) is "the pane you were in before this one, whichever it was": it walks the jump stack for the newest entry naming a different pane and restores its line and column. So Esc, and Shift-Esc in tty, now run Last, and Toggleterm is deleted rather than renamed — a third implementation of "go to the other pane" was the thing to avoid. SPC w t goes with it; the w group is the four directional moves, and the jump group already had SPC j j. Held down, Esc alternates. Two files, a file and its shell, a file and a +Search — all the same, because Last has no notion of kind to get wrong. This depends on the swap in the same series: Last reads the stack backwards, and until hopping stopped appending, the pane you came from could fall off it. windownav.snap needed only its keys and prose changed — its golden did not move at all, which is the useful evidence here: for the one scenario the old builtin handled well, Last produces an identical focus sequence. Coverage for what it did not handle is new: a unit test opens a second FILE by looking its name and asserts Esc alternates between two panes of the SAME kind, which is the case that used to be a no-op. Docs follow: tutor.txt, docs/helix-keys.md, docs/design.typ, and the builtin index goldens, which are now one row shorter. 75/75 snapshots, both unit suites, and the macOS ABI build all pass.
* a native macOS backend: libpardes plus an AppKit shellGabriel Schneider2026-08-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
