tuirm (Terminal UI Rocks, Modafaka) is a ncurses based toolkit for writting console applications using Lua
What does/will it do:
- abstract the application main loop
- have a nice set of highly customizable widgets
- abstract panels, with child widgets/panels, positioned relatively to it
- handle widget focus, with default keys for traversing them
- handle inputs nicely, with common callbacks like
widget.onClickandwidget.onFocusand stuff - callbacks with Lua
functions(which may be closures), which is really confy to program - handle panels/widgets layout and terminal resizes
