=====

'termo' is a library providing an alternative to ncurses' handling of terminal
|
||||
input. ncurses does a really terrible job at that, mainly wrt. mouse support
|
||||
which seems to be utterly broken. If you can drag things in a terminal
|
||||
application, such as in VIM, I can assure you it's not using ncurses for that.

input. ncurses does a terrible job at that, mainly wrt. mouse support which was
|
||||
even completely broken for a few years, making it impossible to drag things
|
||||
around in applications. While that one bit has been fixed, it continues to lack
|
||||
support for rxvt-unicode's 1015 mode and it's generally incapable of relaying
|
||||
certain key combinations.
|
||||
|
||||
Since terminal I/O is really complicated and full of special cases, this project
|
||||
doesn't aspire to also replace the output part of ncurses, but is rather
|
||||
complementary to it. In the end it makes use of its terminfo library.

The API can be considered stable. This project is in maintenance mode.
