term

A tiny terminal emulator. Currently a work in progress, but reasonably functional.

Demo

(With heavy 256-color GIF compression...)

Current Features

• Implements a common subset of a VT-100 terminal's escape sequences (including truecolor graphics)
• Supports Unicode/UTF-8 character sets
• Depends upon standalone Xlib only

Compiling, Running, and Configuring

Assuming Xlib is installed, term can be compiled with:

 $ make

And run with:

 $ ./term

There are several configuration options in config.h which affect the appearance and functioning of term, including fonts and color palettes. To apply these changes, recompile term.

To-Do

• More complete escape sequence support
• Rendering optimizations/alternative rendering engine
• Scrollback
