History
Mitchell Hashimoto 64340c62bf example: add c-vt-kitty-graphics 
Demonstrates the sys interface for Kitty Graphics Protocol PNG
support. The example installs a PNG decode callback via
ghostty_sys_set, creates a terminal with image storage enabled,
and sends an inline 1x1 PNG image through vt_write. Snippet
markers are wired up to the sys.h doxygen docs.

Example: ghostty-vt Kitty Graphics Protocol

This contains a simple example of how to use the system interface (ghostty_sys_set) to install a PNG decoder callback, then send a Kitty Graphics Protocol image via ghostty_terminal_vt_write.

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
