Trackpad gestures

[nervenes]

It'd be really nice to see native gestures in Ghostty, something I feel lacking in most terminals, including the default Terminal.app. One out of many examples, pinching inwards should show all tabs - try this in Safari. I'm a GUI person, and I use the trackpad on my MacBook, so gestures is like a god sent for me - I use Swish which is a native gesture based window manager for macOS and it works flawlessly, but when the applications i use don't have gestures it feels like the flow of my productivity is cut in half.

As a very focused thing: pinching to see tab overview makes a ton of sense to me.

Are there other gestures that make sense to add? (That are idiomatic)

Gestures for navigating tabs comes to mind, think a two finger swipe (left and right) to navigate back and forth would be appropriate - in safari this would navigate back and forth the page history.

Another vote for 2 finger swipe to scroll left/right through panes.

I've never used iTerm but given it's also a native app it'd be interesting to hear what for, how and if they do gestures. so if anyone has experience with iterm and would like to share, please do! :)

iTerm does three finger swipe left and right to go to prev and next tab. Three finger swipe up and down to cycle between windows.

I use the left/right three finger swipe quite often.

I'm currently using BetterTouchTool to map the gestures to their respective shortcuts, but it would be nice to get this supported without 3rd party tools.
