Ghostty is an interesting project, but it’s not usable yet for those of us who use scrollback history search until they ship that feature https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/issues/189

The growing popularity of ghostty has made me realize a lot of people don’t use scroll back history search. I use it frequently to save time and avoid having to rerun time intensive tasks to pipe them through grep or tee everything to a file.

This exactly! Can't move from iterm2 until this feature, which is absolutely essential to me, is implemented.

Love the work they're doing though!!

Are there any workarounds?

In my ghostty config I use:

  scrollback-limit = 512000000
  keybind = super+f=write_scrollback_file:open
It writes it to a temporary file and then opens the file in the default text editor when I hit Cmd+F.

tmux

But there's a whole thread on other workarounds etc. Apparently it's on the roadmap.

The other thing keeping me on iTerm is Ghostty lacking tab support in quake mode

I'm pretty certain that exists, at least on macOS, but I don't use that feature. I just follow development.
