The ssh wrapper previously used a separate set_ssh_terminfo function
that returned a record to be merged, which result in some redundant
control flow and TERM assignments.
This inlines the terminfo logic and builds env/opts incrementally based
on feature flags. TERM is set to a fallback early and only overridden on
success, which simplifies our error handling and avoids mutable variable
capture issues in closures.
Lastly, warnings are now consistently written to stderr, and I made
various other control flow and syntax improvements.
Nushell <https://www.nushell.sh/> is a modern interactive shell that
provides many shell features out-of-the-box, like `title` support. Our
shell integration therefore focuses on Ghostty-specific features like
`sudo`.
We use Nushell's module system to provide a `ghostty` module containing
our shell integration features. This module is automatically loaded from
$XDG_DATA_DIRS/nushell/vendor/autoload/ when `nushell` shell integration
is enabled.
Exported module functions need to be explicitly "used" before they're
available to the interactive shell environment. We do that automatically
by adding `--execute "use ghostty *"` to the `nu` command line.
This imports all available functions, and individual shell features are
runtime-guarded by the script code (using $GHOSTTY_SHELL_FEATURES). We
can consider further refining this later.
When automatic shell integration is disabled, users can still manually
source and enable the shell integration module:
source $GHOSTTY_RESOURCES_DIR/shell-integration/nushell/vendor/autoload/ghostty.nu
use ghostty *
This initial work implements our TERMINFO-aware `sudo` wrapper (via the
`sudo` shell feature). Support for additional features, like `ssh-env`
and `ssh-terminfo`, will follow.
