Ghostel.el: A Modern Terminal Emulator for Emacs Powered by libghostty

Ghostel.el: Terminal emulator powered by libghostty

I introduce Ghostel, a new terminal emulator for Emacs that leverages the high-performance libghostty engine. Unlike older solutions, it supports modern features like inline images, rich underlines, and hyperlinks while maintaining seamless shell integration. With a native Zig module handling rendering and PTY I/O, it delivers superior speed and a flexible input mode system that bridges the gap between terminal commands and Emacs editing.

"Ghostel is inspired by emacs-libvterm and follows the same two-layer design, but uses Ghostty's modern VT engine instead of libvterm."
