libtsm4 - 4.0.2-0.4 main

TSM is a state machine for DEC VT100-VT520 compatible terminal
emulators. It tries to support all common standards while keeping
compatibility to existing emulators like xterm, gnome-terminal, konsole, ..
.
TSM itself does not provide any rendering nor window management.
It is a simple plain state machine without any external dependencies.
It can be used to implement terminal emulators, but also to implement
other applications that need to interpret terminal escape sequences.
.
This library is very similar to libvte of the GNOME project.
However, libvte is highly bound to GTK+, which makes it unsuitable for
non-graphics projects that need to parse escape sequences. Instead,
TSM tries to restrict its API to terminal emulation only. Furthermore,
TSM does not try to establish a new terminal emulation standard, but
instead keeps compatibility as close to xterm as possible.
This is why the TERM variable can be set to xterm-color256 with any
TSM based terminal emulator.
.
This package contains the libtsm runtime library.
