#VT100
This is a vt100 screen reader. It seems to do a pretty decent job of parsing the nethack input stream, which is all I want it for anyway.
Here is a screenshot of the HTML-formatted screen data:
The features we currently support:
- Cursor movement
- Erasing
- Many of the text properties -- underline, inverse, blink, etc.
- Sixteen colors
- Cursor saving and unsaving
- UTF-8
Not currently supported (and no plans to support):
- Scrolling
- Prompts
- Other cooked mode features
The API is not stable! This is a v0 package.
Try running the demo! Install nethack:
sudo apt-get install nethack
Get this code:
go get github.com/jaguilar/vt100
cd $GOPATH/src/githib.com/jaguilar/vt100
Run this code:
go run demo/demo.go -port=8080 2>/tmp/error.txt
Play some nethack and check out the resulting VT100 terminal status:
# From another terminal . . .
xdg-open http://localhost:8080/debug/vt100
The demo probably assumes Linux (it uses pty-related syscalls). I'll happily accept pull requests that replicate the pty-spawning functions on OSX and Windows.
