Description

@shayelkin

Browser on which this bug occurs

Content issue, happens in each and every browser.

Expected Behavior

The configuration file locations listed in the docs section should match the behavor in edit.zig. Namely, the first of:

  1. (On macOS only) $HOME/Library/Application\ Support/com.mitchellh.ghostty/config.ghostty
  2. (On macOS only) $HOME/Library/Application\ Support/com.mitchellh.ghostty/config
  3. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ghostty/config.ghostty
  4. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/ghostty/config

Actual Behavior

The website suggests the XDG Paths is loaded before the macOS specific one, and that file could be loaded in either order.

Extra Details

This current Ghostty behavior is a result of
cbeb689 and adcaff7.

I discovered this discrepancy when digging into this discussion thread in the main ghostty repo.
