Example: ghostty-vt Terminal Formatter

This contains a simple example of how to use the ghostty-vt terminal and formatter APIs to create a terminal, write VT-encoded content into it, and format the screen contents as plain text.

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
