libtickit-dev - 0.4.3-1 main

This library provides an abstracted mechanism for building interactive
full-screen terminal programs. It provides a full set of output drawing
functions, and handles keyboard and mouse input events.
.
Using this library, applications can
.
* Divide the terminal into a hierarchy of nested, possibly-overlapping
rectangular windows
* Render output content and react to input events independently in any
window region
* Use fully Unicode-aware string content, including non-BMP, full-width
and combining characters
* Draw line-art using Unicode box-drawing characters in a variety of
styles
* Operate synchronously or asynchronously via file descriptors, or
abstractly via byte buffers
* Recognise arbitrary keyboard input, including modifiers*
* Make use of multiple terminals, if available, from a single
application
.
The following terminal features are supported (depending on terminal support):
.
* Many rendering attributes; bold, italics, underline, reverse,
strikethough, alternate font
* 256 and 24-bit (16 million) colours
* Mouse including mouse wheel and recognition of position reporting greater
than 224 columns
* Arbitrary scrolling regions
.
This package contains the header files and libraries needed for developing
with libtickit.
