What problem does it solve?
Developers need a structured, high-level toolkit for creating, extending, and debugging terminal-based user interfaces in Common Lisp, avoiding manual low-level terminal control.
Core Features & Use Cases
- UI Construction: Build complex terminal applications using window, panel, and form abstractions.
- Event Handling: Implement keybindings, mouse interactions, and resize responsiveness.
- Component Layout: Organize screens with grids, layouts, menus, and dialogs.
- Styled Output: Use colors, borders, and shapes to enhance visual clarity.
- Concurrency & Thread Safety: Safely update the UI from SLIME or background threads via queueing.
- Module & Source Routing: Use source maps and API indexes to navigate implementation details.
Quick Start
Use with-screen to start a terminal UI, bind keys with bind, and run the event loop with run-event-loop for interactive applications.
