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>
c-vt-cmake-static
Demonstrates consuming libghostty-vt as a static library from a CMake
project using FetchContent. Creates a terminal, writes VT sequences into
it, and formats the screen contents as plain text.
Building
cd example/c-vt-cmake-static
cmake -B build
cmake --build build
./build/c_vt_cmake_static
To build against a local checkout instead of fetching from GitHub:
cmake -B build -DFETCHCONTENT_SOURCE_DIR_GHOSTTY=../..
cmake --build build
