GTK is also merged. Main branch has search. Its also exposed via libghostty for embedders.

But only in the the tip (nightly) build. I'm somewhat tempted to switch to them for this.

A while ago I compiled Ghostty from HEAD, because it had a bug fix I cared for. It was a very stable and pleasant experience. No hassle whatsoever.

If you'd like you can also use `tip` as the update channel to get the nightly build binary without having to compile it yourself: https://ghostty.org/docs/config/reference#auto-update-channe...

Ah. Cool!

If you need to do that again note that there is asdf plugin as well ;-)

For Linux compiling is actually the only way to get tip.
