termtest

termtest is a tool to test the terminal’s features in a semi-automated way.

I considered writing this in Python but it has a shitty curses library where you need to call initscr() before anything else. Overall, it is a good idea to avoid such layers on top of the terminfo library.

Using

Build dependencies: a C99 compiler (tcc is guaranteed to work)
Runtime dependencies: ncurses

$ git clone https://git.janouch.name/p/termtest.git
$ c99 termtest.c -o termtest -lncurses
$ ./termtest
