Alessandro De Blasis libghostty: add ghostty_free for cross-runtime memory safety 4mo ago

libghostty: add ghostty_free for cross-runtime memory safety On Windows, Zig's built-in libc and MSVC's CRT maintain separate heaps, so calling free() on memory allocated by the library causes undefined behavior. Add ghostty_free() that frees through the same allocator that performed the allocation, making it safe on all platforms. Update format_alloc docs and all examples to use ghostty_free() instead of free(). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

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
