I’ve never used scrollback search, and it was a discovery for me that there’s a contingent that are very vocal in their demands for scrollback search.

I can see why someone would feel attached to this feature though.

Mostly I’m looking forward to seeing it implemented so I can stop reading complaints about this being missing in every thread about ghostty!

My use cases are trying to find the one test that failed out of my suite and finding a specific log print when my app is running. Yes, there are other ways to do both of these. Having scrollback search in the terminal is a very convenient option though.

I wish they didn’t lock the GitHub issue so that we could see how many thousands more reactions it would get.
