The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: Term::WinConsole DSLIP: bdpOp description: ANSI based windows management for Perl userid: JMVILOMET (Jean-Michel Vilomet) chapterid: 8 (User_Interfaces) communities: perlmonks.org similar: Term::ANSIScreen rationale: I chose the "Term" namespace because my module acts like already existing modules in it, such as Term::ANSIScreen and Term::ANSIColor. Like these modules, WinConsole builds ANSI compliant strings you can send on a terminal and get the expected color changes et cursor moves. My module improves these functionalities on two points: screen management and transmitted data optimisation. Screen management is done via an object-oriented interface that allows you to create what I call 'miniwins' i.e. rectangular areas with their own content (color, text and cursor attribute). A Z-buffer management is also done to allow windows overlapping. Data optimisation is done by using a back buffer for all drawing operations and a diff algorithm enabling you to only send to a text terminal the minimal operations required to match the new screen content. enteredby: JMVILOMET (Jean-Michel Vilomet) enteredon: Sun Jun 2 18:58:27 2002 GMT The resulting entry would be: Term:: ::WinConsole bdpOp ANSI based windows management for Perl JMVILOMET Thanks for registering, The Pause Team PS: The following links are only valid for module list maintainers: Registration form with editing capabilities: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=7d100000_425596091d17cbaa&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_preview=1 Immediate (one click) registration: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=7d100000_425596091d17cbaa&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_insertit=1
