Simple terminal based desktop (TUI, Vision)

Xeratul · 04-02-2017, 01:22 AM

Hello,

I was looking for an alternative to Screen and Tmux, for a simple viewer/browser on Linux.

For fun, I just made a basic simple terminal TUI. It is useful to quickly view some files on the terminal.
(it is basic until now, it works already good, but step by step, it will be more elaborated with the time).

I would like to ask if you may have a minimum code on termcap (ncurses) so that I can include BASH termninal on it.

Regards, Have Fun Using Linux!

Where are the libraries? Your zip file only contains ndesktop.c.

I had to check this out after Hazel's response:

Code:

➜ gcc ndesktop.c 
ndesktop.c:20:30: fatal error: ../libc/libc-key.c: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

Bit delayed. Since the code is still under development, the main lib is behind delayed.

I have changed the colors to blue, and there are many more features. I have made a new version that allows to move even faster the tui windows.

termcap will be somehow... to be added on the top. Bash must be included.

worst than LEGO, with stones

kinda true. It's from a first hello world to more complicated programme for a beginner.

[edit: your aggressivity against beginners is also visible here]
