Am I the only person wondering why we need 100 terminal emulators when there are only 2 or 3 solutions to using command line tools more like a REPL? (to some degree warp, some bash support in hydrogen, advanced edit mode of powershell) I don't care for using "fancy" TUIs all i want is better tooling to interact with these that does not feel like 1970 and more like the chrome console.
> I saw tradeoffs that I didn't like. I saw features that I wanted. I saw performance that I could improve. I saw stagnation. There are many fantastic terminals out there and you should use them if they work for you. But I wanted something different and thought maybe others did too.
This motivation is pretty clearly stated in the article.
Some people use "fancy TUIs" (the famous editors vim and emacs surely count) and if you don't, feel free to ignore this new option.
Unfortunately, launching a fancy TUI like lazydocker inside a fresh install of Ghostty will make the TUI exit with an error, when the same TUI runs just fine on iTerm, alacritty, etc.
