has someone ever integrated this on a curses-like interface ?

Is this even possible ? I was thinking on making a terminal UI based on curses to plot real time, maybe someone has already tried ?
Hi @chromafunk ,
I think this should be perfectly possible.
Basically, plotille just uses ASCII codes for colors. And Figure.show(…) returns a str you can print with whatever function you like.
Would be great, if you keep me posted on your project (i am just curious) and i am happy to help, if you encounter problem.
Best, Tammo
yeah, that's why I came here ... basically I love this lib and I want to build a curses interface with it, I have set up a test with it, and it seems that for some reason, curses can't render braille characters properly ( this is in the same term where I am running plotille )
I have tried to force using the locale as some online posts suggest but I'm getting this :
Do you know why this happens and how to fix it ? I believe that once this is fixed, it would be possible and then I will finish it. Another option that I am working on is to make it with notcurses instead of with curses, but this requires more work on the source code ( somebody is already working on it ) let me know !
Hi, looks like the ansii escape codes are escaped somehow (all the ^[[ gibberish). Apparently ncurses does not like these, as it uses the codes itself. Maybe this helps: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30189434/how-to-display-pre-colored-string-with-curses
(I am on the phone and cannot check, sry)
gotcha ! yeah someone is building a parser for notcurses and I'm just going to jump in and help with it. I'll let you know when it's finished
