Even more, I can have split logic based on window size, window titles that show me who also checked out a file while I am inside an editor, even per-window color and font schemes.
All apps should use something like Lua for their config.
Anyway, this is the reason I love the new wave of terminals, they bring new stuff on the table and anyone can find one they love. I just installed Ghostty and it works as I expect out of the box, with even less config (0) than I have on iTerm. And it's fast. Now I just hope they'll add a config UI some day (one of the reasons I prefer static config files: you can't really get a UI with a programming language) and I'll be in terminal heaven
The way this works in Wezterm is you can add regexes that match text in the terminal and format that text as links. So, I turn #(\d+) into "GITHUB_PR:$1" and then add a "on link clicked" callback to handle that special URL form by shelling out to `gh pr view --web $1` in the same working directory as the clicked pane.
Lua is also simple enough that if you want to have a static config, you can have a single table that is very json-like.
Insanely good ;)
Being able to quickly script minor functionality into my terminal emulator is my favorite thing about WezTerm
