# URL Decoding Fix for Terminal File Path Clicking
## Discussion
This change does not allow for paths that literally have `%XX` inside of
them. If any such paths exist, they will fail to ctrl+click. A larger
change would be needed to handle that.
## Problem
In the terminal, you could ctrl+click file paths to open them in the
editor, but this didn't work when the paths contained URL-encoded
characters (percent-encoded sequences like `%CE%BB` for Greek letter λ).
### Example Issue
- This worked: `dashboardλ.mts:3:8`
- This didn't work: `dashboard%CE%BB.mts:3:8`
The URL-encoded form `%CE%BB` represents the Greek letter λ (lambda),
but the terminal wasn't decoding these sequences before trying to open
the files.
## Solution
Added URL decoding functionality to the terminal path detection system:
1. **Added urlencoding dependency** to `crates/terminal/Cargo.toml`
2. **Created decode_file_path function** in
`crates/terminal/src/terminal.rs` that:
- Attempts to decode URL-encoded paths using `urlencoding::decode()`
- Falls back to the original string if decoding fails
- Handles malformed encodings gracefully
3. **Applied decoding to PathLikeTarget creation** for both:
- Regular file paths detected by word regex
- File:// URLs that are treated as paths
## Code Changes
### New Function
```rust
/// Decodes URL-encoded file paths to handle cases where terminal output contains
/// percent-encoded characters (e.g., %CE%BB for λ).
/// Falls back to the original string if decoding fails.
fn decode_file_path(path: &str) -> String {
urlencoding::decode(path)
.map(|decoded| decoded.into_owned())
.unwrap_or_else(|_| path.to_string())
}
```
### Modified PathLikeTarget Creation
The function is now called when creating `PathLikeTarget` instances:
- For file:// URLs: `decode_file_path(path)`
- For regular paths: `decode_file_path(&maybe_url_or_path)`
## Testing
Added comprehensive test coverage in `test_decode_file_path()` that
verifies:
- Normal paths remain unchanged
- URL-encoded characters are properly decoded (λ, spaces, slashes)
- Paths with line numbers work correctly
- Invalid encodings fall back gracefully
- Mixed encoding scenarios work
## Impact
This fix enables ctrl+click functionality for file paths containing
non-ASCII characters that appear URL-encoded in terminal output, making
the feature work consistently with tools that output percent-encoded
file paths.
The change is backward compatible - all existing functionality continues
to work unchanged, and the fix only activates when URL-encoded sequences
are detected.
Release Notes:
* File paths printed in the terminal that have `%XX` escape sequences
will now be properly decoded so that ctrl+click will open them
Part of #28238
This PR refactors `FindHyperlink` handling and associated code in
`terminal.rs` into its own file for improved testability, and adds
tests.

Fixes rendering of colors in the terminal to use XTerm's idiosyncratic standard steps instead of the range that was previously in use. Matches the behavior of Alacritty, Ghostty, iTerm2, and every other terminal emulator I've looked at.
Release Notes:
- Fixed rendering of terminal colors for the XTerm 256-color indexed color palette.
The core change here is the following:
```rust
fn write_to_pty(&self, input: impl Into<Vec<u8>>);
// into
fn write_to_pty(&self, input: impl Into<Cow<'static, [u8]>>);
```
This matches the trait bounds that's used by the Alacritty crate. We are
now allowed to effectively pass `&'static str` instead of always needing
a `String`.
The main benefit comes from making the `to_esc_str` function return a
`Cow<'static, str>` instead of `String`. We save an allocation in the
following instances:
- When the user presses any special key that isn't alphanumerical (in
the terminal)
- When the uses presses any key while a modifier is active (in the
terminal)
- When focusing/un-focusing the terminal
- When completing or undoing a terminal transaction
- When starting a terminal assist
This basically saves us an allocation on **every key** press in the
terminal.
NOTE: This same optimization can be done for **nearly all** keypresses
in the entirety of Zed by changing the signature of the `Keystroke`
struct in gpui. If the Zed team is interested in a PR for it, let me
know.

By consuming the event during processing we save a few clones during
event processing.
Overall in this PR we save one Clone each during:
- Paste to the terminal
- Writing to the terminal
- Setting the title
- On every terminal transaction
- On every ViMotion when not using shift

Terminal may update its hovered word way before reporting it to the
terminal view, and that processing the file check later.
Hence, store the terminal hover data in the terminal view and avoid
highlights when it's different from what the terminal has (as the source
of truth here).
In addition, now only does hover refreshes when the terminal hover
actually changes, not on every event report.
Release Notes:
- Fixed underline flicker when switching cmd-hovered words in terminal
To-dos:
- [x] Expose the command to defend against cases where that's just super
long
- [x] Tackle the vertical scroll conflict with panel scroll
- [x] Reduce default font-size

## Summary
This PR starts the process of adding debug task locators to Zed's
debugger system. A task locator is a secondary resolution phase that
allows a debug task to run a command before starting a debug session and
then uses the output of the run command to configure itself.
Locators are most applicable when debugging a compiled language but will
be helpful for any language as well.
## Architecture
At a high level, this works by adding a debug task queue to `Workspace`.
Which add's a debug configuration associated with a `TaskId` whenever a
resolved task with a debug config is added to `TaskInventory`'s queue.
Then, when the `SpawnInTerminal` task finishes running, it emits its
task_id and the result of the ran task.
When a ran task exits successfully, `Workspace` tells `Project` to start
a debug session using its stored debug config, then `DapStore` queries
the `LocatorStore` to configure the debug configuration if it has a
valid locator argument.

TODO:
- [x] Use AsyncFn instead of Fn() -> Future in GPUI spawn methods
- [x] Implement it in the whole app
- [x] Implement it in the debugger
- [x] Glance at the RPC crate, and see if those box future methods can
be switched over. Answer: It can't directly, as you can't make an
AsyncFn* into a trait object. There's ways around that, but they're all
more complex than just keeping the code as is.
- [ ] Fix platform specific code

### DISCLAIMER
> As of 6th March 2025, debugger is still in development. We plan to
merge it behind a staff-only feature flag for staff use only, followed
by non-public release and then finally a public one (akin to how Git
panel release was handled). This is done to ensure the best experience
when it gets released.

Fixes a few problems,
- Uses `Boundary::Grid` instead of `Boundary::Cursor` for highlighted
range adjustments.
This fixes quite a few wierd behaviors around highlighting paths that
had to be scrolled into view (i.e. were in the terminal history)
including the issue described in the release notes as well as a
regression caused by #26401 where the highlight range would span from
the start of the path to the cursor location in the shell prompt
- Strips all trailing `:`s from the paths, updating the highlighted
range accordingly.
This worked fine before and is just a visual improvement.
Release Notes:
- Fixed an issue where file paths in the terminal surrounded by `()` or
`[]` would not be highlighted properly
Closes#25086
Release Notes:
- Fixed a bug where file paths in the built in terminal of the format
`path/to/file.ext:row:col:description or error message` would not be
correctly identified as file paths due to the colon & additional text at
the end
These changes tackle two issues with running terminal commands via vim
mode:
- When using `!!` the tab's title was set to `!!` instead of the
previous command that was run and these changes fix that in order to
always display the previous command in the tab's title when re-running
the command with `!!`
- For a terminal command, pressing the rerun button would actually bring
up the task palette, so this has been updated in order to disable the
rerun button when the terminal tab was spawned via a vim command
Closes#25800
Release Notes:
- Fixed the terminal tab title when using `!!` to rerun the last command
- Improved the terminal tab for when command is run via vim mode, in
order to disable the rerun button, seeing as Zed does not support it
This reverts commit 9ef0501853 due to a
panic.

Handle the case where you click on the terminal while pressing Shift.
Instead of setting a new selection head, we simply update the selection
to that point. This allows you to repeatedly extend the selection to new
points by pressing Shift while preserving the original selection head.
Preview:
Selection works in direct terminal, but doesn't on Vim like program,
which is expected.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e46987d8-a9a3-495d-8dd9-98d461317a8d
Release Notes:
- Added ability to extend selection with Shift + click in the terminal.
Done automatically with
> ast-grep -p '$A.background_executor().spawn($B)' -r
'$A.background_spawn($B)' --update-all --globs "\!crates/gpui"
Followed by:
* `cargo fmt`
* Unexpected need to remove some trailing whitespace.
* Manually adding imports of `gpui::{AppContext as _}` which provides
`background_spawn`
* Added `AppContext as _` to existing use of `AppContext`

This PR makes progress on #7711 by identifying any common prefix of the
paths in the file finder's search results, and replacing the "interior"
of that prefix---every path segment but the first and last---with `...`,
when a heuristic indicates that the longest path would otherwise
overflow the modal.
The elision is not applied to any segment that contains a match for the
search query.
There may be more work to do on #7711 in the case of long result paths
that do not share a significant common prefix.
Release Notes:
- Improved display of long paths in the file finder modal

There's still a bit more work to do on this, but this PR is compiling
(with warnings) after eliminating the key types. When the tasks below
are complete, this will be the new narrative for GPUI:
- `Entity<T>` - This replaces `View<T>`/`Model<T>`. It represents a unit
of state, and if `T` implements `Render`, then `Entity<T>` implements
`Element`.
- `&mut App` This replaces `AppContext` and represents the app.
- `&mut Context<T>` This replaces `ModelContext` and derefs to `App`. It
is provided by the framework when updating an entity.
- `&mut Window` Broken out of `&mut WindowContext` which no longer
exists. Every method that once took `&mut WindowContext` now takes `&mut
Window, &mut App` and every method that took `&mut ViewContext<T>` now
takes `&mut Window, &mut Context<T>`
Not pictured here are the two other failed attempts. It's been quite a
month!
Tasks:
- [x] Remove `View`, `ViewContext`, `WindowContext` and thread through
`Window`
- [x] [@cole-miller @mikayla-maki] Redraw window when entities change
- [x] [@cole-miller @mikayla-maki] Get examples and Zed running
- [x] [@cole-miller @mikayla-maki] Fix Zed rendering
- [x] [@mikayla-maki] Fix todo! macros and comments
- [x] Fix a bug where the editor would not be redrawn because of view
caching
- [x] remove publicness window.notify() and replace with
`AppContext::notify`
- [x] remove `observe_new_window_models`, replace with
`observe_new_models` with an optional window
- [x] Fix a bug where the project panel would not be redrawn because of
the wrong refresh() call being used
- [x] Fix the tests
- [x] Fix warnings by eliminating `Window` params or using `_`
- [x] Fix conflicts
- [x] Simplify generic code where possible
- [x] Rename types
- [ ] Update docs
### issues post merge
- [x] Issues switching between normal and insert mode
- [x] Assistant re-rendering failure
- [x] Vim test failures
- [x] Mac build issue

Now we ensure that task output is fully drained and printed to Zed
terminal pane on task completion.
This change depends on a recent change to alacritty_terminal crate:
5e78d20c70.
Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/18342
Release Notes:
- Fixed missing task terminal output on Linux for short-running commands
This is a follow-up to #22615 and fixes the issue of `alacritty`
resulting in broken shell/CLI apps if `alacritty` is not in the terminfo
database.
Closes #ISSUE
Release Notes:
- Set `TERM` to `xterm-256color` in Zed's built-in terminal
Closes#17991
Release Notes:
- Set the `TERM` environment variable inside the terminal
Currently the terminal inherits the `TERM` variable from the parent
process. However this can cause issues with programs that rely on this
variable to make sure certain features are present. For example not
supporting backspaces making the terminal almost unusable.
Closes#10325
Release Notes:
- Fixed an issue inside the integrated terminal where clicking on URLs
that started with `file://` would sometimes not work when the path
included a line number (e.g. `file:///Users/someuser/lorem.txt:221:22`)
Expands #18715
Release Notes:
- Added arrow keys movement to the built-in terminal's [vi
mode](https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/blob/master/docs/features.md#vi-mode)
(which is using Alacritty under the hood).
Details
--
A minuscule improvement on #18715 to allow user with alternative
keyboard layouts to use the terminal's vi mode with the arrow keys.
