I used iTerm2 until I noticed that Ghostty’s New Tab opens at the current working directory.

Haven’t gone back since.

You can set that in iterm 2. I've had it that way for ages

    Oh right, it didn’t work for me because it depends on edits to my shell config files that didn’t work in my setup.

    I suppose my accolade is that Ghostty just does what I want without hunting through config screens and managing file edits.

You can configure iterm2 to do whatever you want in new tabs or panes. This feature has been available for over a decade.

I have it reuse the same directory in a new pane. And my home directory in a new tab.
