ISO/IEC 2022 defines the C0 and C1 control codes. The C0 set are the familiar codes between 0x00 and 0x1f in ASCII, ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8 (eg. ESC, CR, LF). Some VT100 terminal emulators (eg. screen(1), PuTTY) support the C1 set, too. These are the values between 0x80 and 0x9f (so, for example, 0x84 moves the cursor down a line). I am...
I'm an avid Emacs user and love shell-mode that in my opinion brings the best of two worlds: Emacs buffers and terminal emulators. For me shell-mode's biggest down fall is that ncurses based applications wouldn't render correctly. Having the need to design & code a little monitoring app in C that reads and write to standard input & out...
I have a small ncurse program I'm running, but the output doesn't seem to show up unless I stick the wrefresh() in a while loop. Is there some buffering going on or something? I tried other refresh functions in the library and fflush with stddout (which I don't think makes sense, but worth a try), but nothing seems to work. A second sma...
I'm writing a C++ application using ncurses in Eclipse CDT however I can't run/debug my app in eclipse because the console in eclipse does not work with curses. My app runs fine if I run it from a terminal but I just added some new code and now I'm getting a segmentation fault so I'd like to use the debugger in eclipse to help me fix the...
I'm using C (gcc) and ncurses, to make a program that will be monitoring data coming from the serial port. The program has a big while, where it reads the data coming from the port and at the same time, it prints that info in the screen... But the problem is here: How can it read input from my keyboard, (since getch() freezes the progr...
I like having log data in a last-first form (the same way most blogs and news sites organize their posts). The languages I'm most comfortable in are C++ and Python: is there a way to output log data either to the screen (stdout) or a file with the most recent entry always being on top? Or is there perhaps a way of modifying tail to sho...
Hi all, Apparently this is almost a duplicate of "Bad pipe filedescriptor when reading from stdin in python - Stack Overflow"; however, I believe this case is slightly more complicated (and it is not Windows specific, as the conclusion of that thread was). I'm currently trying to experiment with a simple script in Python: I'd like to...
I have been looking for an equivalent to kbhit() and I have read several forums on this subject, and the majority seems to suggest using ncurses. How should I go about checking if a key is pressed in c++ using ncurses. The function getch() provided by ncurses reads character from the window. I would like to write a function that only c...
I have a small project that I need to compile. I have one header and one source that I have created and a nearly empty driver.c that includes my header. Observe: // iol.h #ifndef __IOL_HEADER #define __IOL_HEADER /* program: iol.h date: 5 October 2010 */ #define UNIX 1 #define WINDOWS 2 #define OS UNIX #if OS == UNIX #...
I have following code to try and alter the default Ruby Ncurses behavior: #!/usr/bin/env ruby require 'logger' require 'rubygems' require 'ncurses' class Ncurses::WINDOW def initialize( height, width, starty, startx ) w = super( height, width, starty, startx ) w.clear w.move(0,0) w.addstr('first psot') ...
Hi, I'm looking for a terminal UI library having widgets (like buttons, checkbox, ...), and compatible with python3. I tried : pycdk (pyrex does not work with python3, and porting it is a mess) urwid (does not work with python3, it has a port but not working well with new curses interface). Does anyone know such a library ? Thanks...
