Rustbox

Rustbox is a Rust implementation of termbox.

Currently, this is just a wrapper of the C library by nsf, though my plan is to convert it to be a pure Rust implementation and remove the requirement on the C library.

The original implementation of this was inspired by Aaron Pribadi, so big props to him for the original work.

NOTE This is under development, and the APIs may change as I figure out more how Rust works and as the language itself changes

Usage

In your Cargo.toml add the following:

toml [dependencies] rustbox = "0.4.0"

You can also use the current git version by instead adding:

toml [dependencies.rustbox] git = "https://github.com/gchp/rustbox.git"

Then, in your src/example.rs:

```rust

![feature(io)]

![feature(core)]

extern crate rustbox;

use std::char; use std::old_io::stdio; use std::error::Error; use std::default::Default;

use rustbox::{Color, Key, RustBox, InitOptions};

fn main() { let rustbox = match RustBox::init(InitOptions { bufferstderr: stdio::stderrraw().isatty(), ..Default::default() }) { Result::Ok(v) => v, Result::Err(e) => panic!("{}", e), };

rustbox.print(1, 1, rustbox::RB_BOLD, Color::White, Color::Black, "Hello, world!");
rustbox.print(1, 3, rustbox::RB_BOLD, Color::White, Color::Black,
              "Press 'q' to quit.");
rustbox.present();
loop {
    match rustbox.poll_event(false) {
        Ok(rustbox::Event::KeyEvent(key)) => {
            match key {
                Some(Key::Char('q')) => { break; }
                _ => { }
            }
        },
        Err(e) => panic!("{}", e.description()),
        _ => { }
    }
}

} ```

NOTE: this example can also be run with cargo run --example hello-world.
