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>
Examples
Standalone projects demonstrating the Ghostty library APIs.
The directories starting with c- use the C API and the directories
starting with zig- use the Zig API.
Every example can be built and run using zig build and zig build run
from within the respective example directory.
Even the C API examples use the Zig build system (not the language) to
build the project.
Running an Example
cd example/<dir>
zig build run
