Example: VT Stream Processing in C

This contains a simple example of how to use ghostty_terminal_vt_write to parse and process VT sequences in C. This is the C equivalent of the zig-vt-stream example, ideal for read-only terminal applications such as replay tooling, CI log viewers, and PaaS builder output.

This uses a build.zig and Zig to build the C program so that we can reuse a lot of our build logic and depend directly on our source tree, but Ghostty emits a standard C library that can be used with any C tooling.

Usage

Run the program:

zig build run
