Introduction

Terminality aims to be a cross-platform terminal manipulation library. It provides a set of functions which are used to manipulate a text terminal, functions such as clearing the screen, changing text colours, moving the cursor, etc.

The Terminality interface very closely resembles the old Borland Pascal/C text-mode functions. This interface stays the same between platforms but the implementation changes - Terminality will use the standard Win32 SDK console functions on Win32 platforms (Windows 95|98|ME|NT|2K|XP), ncurses on Unix platforms and it is extensible to cover other platforms as long as someone is willing to write up a backend.

Backends

• Win32 SDK
• ncurses
  • Linux
  • FreeBSD
  • Solaris (with minor modifications)
  • AIX (I've been told it works but that was a long time ago)
• DJGPP and PD-CURSES under DOS (ported by Michal Safranek)

Downloads

• [Terminality v2.1 source] 235kb (.tar.gz)
