Some Deno code for TUI…stuff.

TUIAppFramework3

To run demonstration, try one of:

• deno run --check=all help
• deno run --check=all hello
• deno run --check=all clock
• deno run --check=all --allow-read src\demo\ts\tuidemo3.ts wc README.md CHANGELOG.txt
• deno run --check=all src\demo\ts\tuidemo3.ts wc -
  • This one reads data from stdin; recommendation is to pipe in a file
  • You can also type text in but it will ‘look messy’ and you’ll have to manually send EOF (Ctrl+z on Windows, Ctrl+d on Unixen) or Ctrl+c to quit.

Other stuff

For reading characters and escape codes as sent by terminals, use toCharishes from escapeparser.ts, which will give you an AsyncIterable<Charish>, where Charish is either a number (for a regular character) or an object representing the data contained in an escape sequence. See charishdemo.ts for example.

Streams of charishes can in turn be translated into ‘input events’. See eventreader.ts for example.

There’s also some stuff about box drawing buried in here.

This project is currently ‘just a bunch of code’, isn’t very well organized, and may change drastically between versions.

See DEVLOG.md for stream of consciousness as I try to figure out what I’m trying to build.
