Catthode for Ghostty

From CRT to OLED. Bringing warmth back to a world of cold themes. cattho.de

A true-black Ghostty theme with white phosphor text, an amber cursor, warm highlights, and Catthode's complete ANSI palette.

Install from GitHub

mkdir -p ~/.config/ghostty/themes
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/catthode/ghostty/main/themes/Catthode \
  -o ~/.config/ghostty/themes/Catthode

Add this line to ~/.config/ghostty/config:

theme = Catthode

If you do not already have a Ghostty configuration, the repository's config file contains this setting and can be linked directly.

Ghostty reloads its configuration with Cmd+Shift+, on macOS and Ctrl+Shift+, on Linux.

Nix

This repository can be used as a non-flake input and linked into a Home Manager configuration:

inputs.catthode-ghostty = {
  url = "github:catthode/ghostty";
  flake = false;
};

xdg.configFile."ghostty/themes/Catthode".source =
  "${inputs.catthode-ghostty}/themes/Catthode";

programs.ghostty.settings.theme = "Catthode";

Distribution

Ghostty does not have a separate theme store. Catthode is intentionally distributed from this Catthode-owned GitHub repository and is not submitted to an unrelated theme collection.

The screenshot above was captured in Ghostty 1.3.1 using synthetic terminal content. It contains no username, filesystem location, command history, or personal media.

Remove

Remove the theme = Catthode setting, then delete only ~/.config/ghostty/themes/Catthode.
