Bash-Visual

Bash visualisation library

Description

BashVisual simplifies Unix-console operation (sh, bash, csh etc). It uses tput and standard Unix-terminal facilities. It is also thread-safe.

BashVisual allows:

  • control position, colors and text's form
  • draw graphical primitives (rectangle, window)
  • create dynamic scrolling objects
  • get window parameters (weight, height)

See the wiki!
