2.7 KiB
Pure CL terminal UI framework. No ncurses, no FFI, no external dependencies.
```lisp (ql:quickload :cl-tty) ```
## Quick start
```lisp ;; Create a modern terminal backend (let ((backend (make-instance 'cl-tty.backend:modern-backend))) (cl-tty.backend:initialize-backend backend) ;; Backend is ready — write text, draw boxes, handle input (cl-tty.backend:shutdown-backend backend)) ```
## Architecture
Two backends, one protocol:
- modern-backend — truecolor 24-bit, OSC 8 hyperlinks, DECICM sync, SGR mouse, kitty keyboard, bold/italic/underline, box-drawing chars
- simple-backend — ASCII art, no color, universal compatibility
Everything is pure escape sequences (no curses, no terminfo, no FFI).

emacs –batch –eval "(progn (require 'org) (find-file \"org/FILE.org\") (org-babel-tangle) (kill-buffer))" ```
Literate programming: `.org` files in `org/` are the source of truth. `.lisp` files are generated by tangling.
