How to do Toggle Background Opacity

[yanskun]

I like to use the terminal with a transparent background.
However, when sharing a screen for pair programming, etc., it seems that noise can be introduced depending on the other person, so I would like to be able to easily turn off transparency.

iTerm has a Toggle Transparency feature that allows you to switch between custom opacity and non-transparent by pressing cmd + u.

Does Ghostty have it?

Since Alacritty doesn't seem to have this feature, I prepared a shell script to change the config directly.

If Ghostty doesn't have this feature, I'll prepare a Shell Script.
However, if Ghostty has it, I'd like to use it.
(If I get excited, I'd like to implement it directly in Ghostty and submit a PR.)

There is no way to toggle it besides removing it from your config and then reloading the config and vise versa at the moment

Hello,

Same need here, background opacity toggling is a feature I use a lot, and I would love to see it in ghostty 😊

@yanskun Before you get excited and make the PR, I am interested if you have a script 😇
