open config using $EDITOR

[AnirudhG07]

I am very excited to use Ghostty, I have VERY recently got it. One thing that I am fond of using in my MacOS is using command + comma to open settings or config files. In iTERM, they had a gui, for Kitty they used vim(which I changed to nvim). But Ghostty uses TextEdit.
I discussed this on discord and people said it is not possible yet. Can it be possible in future so that the config file can be open with $EDITOR, or similar. Maybe in the default configs, you can add an option of opening the config file in EDITOR.

Thanks for Ghostty! Loving it!
(Sorry if this is repeated, although I coudnt find a discussion for it.)

IMHO Command+, should open the (non existing yet) settings GUI.

May be a different keybinding could be use to launch $EDITOR instead, but I think that having a flag like +show-config --path could be enough, so you can do vim $(ghostty +show-config --path).

Yes true, it is currently opening the config, which is in a way settings only.
Thanks for the cmd

That's the plan, there is another discussion tracking that.

Agreed: this is standard on macOS apps.

It's not yet implemented; that's the point of this feature request's existence.

ghostty supports this now ghostty +edit-config
