terminfo

Terminal capabilities with type-safe getters.

Example

```rust extern crate terminfo;

use std::io; use terminfo::{Database, capability as cap};

fn main() { let info = Database::from_env().unwrap();

if let Some(cap::MaxColors(n)) = info.get::() { println!("The terminal supports {} colors.", n); } else { println!("The terminal does not support colors, what year is this?"); }

if let Some(flash) = info.get::() { flash.expand().to(io::stdout()).unwrap(); } else { println!("FLASH GORDON!"); }

info.get::<cap::SetAForeground>().unwrap().expand().color(2).to(io::stdout()).unwrap();
info.get::<cap::SetABackground>().unwrap().expand().color(4).to(io::stdout()).unwrap();
println!("SUP");
info.get::<cap::ExitAttributeMode>().unwrap().expand().to(io::stdout()).unwrap();

} ```

Packaging and Distributing

For all terminals but windows consoles, this library depends on a non-hashed (for now) terminfo database being present. For example, on Debian derivitives, you should depend on ncurses-term; on Arch Linux, you depend on ncurses; and on MinGW, you should depend on mingw32-terminfo.

Unfortunately, if you're using a non-windows console on Windows (e.g. MinGW, Cygwin, Git Bash), you'll need to set the TERMINFO environment variable to point to the directory containing the terminfo database.
