Glenn Linderman added the comment: Re: curses... maybe that becomes a DOCS issue, to mention the available packages. But it would be easier, no doubt to port curses to a known existing escape sequence control set, than to use a bunch arcane, foreign-to-the-Unix-porter-that-wants-curses obscure and seldom discussed Windows APIs.
IIRC, ANSI is somewhat incompatible with sending random binary gibberish to the screen, as people accidentally do with TYPE sometimes :) But the random binary gibberish may contain ANSI control sequences... That's why I'm negative on making it a default. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29059> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
