CRT dials shared crt.glsl · all tubes

The first nine dials are the constants in crt.glsl — one shader shared by every tube profile; screen padding is a per-profile Ghostty setting. The preview above runs the identical shader math, so what you see is what Ghostty renders.

Type a wordmark, pick a face, and Send to screen to see it on the tube
      through the CRT shader in the selected machine's palette. Copy as banner file emits a
      ready-to-paste banners/<machine>.txt block — the #: color
      header is filled from the selected machine. Banners read best at ≤ 66 columns; try
      kerned or smushed spacing when a word runs wide.

  


  

    
Publish back to Ghostty

    

      
      
      
    

    
Paste the publish command into your terminal — it writes
      retro/<slug> (and the shared crt.glsl if CRT is on) and
      opens a new window wearing this profile. A running window keeps the look it was
      launched with — pasting into one won't repaint it; ⌘⇧, only reloads the shared shader.
      Nothing here touches your files until you paste.
