## [python Terminal Toolkit](https://github.com/ceccopierangiolieugenio/pyTermTk)

Text-based user interface library ([TUI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text-based_user_interface))
Evolved from the discontinued project [pyCuT](https://github.com/ceccopierangiolieugenio/pyCuT)
and inspired by a mix of [Qt5](https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/static/Docs/PyQt5/),[GTK](https://pygobject.readthedocs.io/en/latest/), and [tkinter](https://docs.python.org/3/library/tkinter.html) api definition with a touch of personal interpretation

[![screenshot](https://github.com/ceccopierangiolieugenio/binaryRepo/blob/master/pyTermTk/demo.001.gif?raw=true)](https://pypi.org/project/pyTermTk)

## Features
- Basic widgets for [TUI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text-based_user_interface) development (Button, Label, checkbox, ...)
- Specialized widgets to improve the usability (Windows, Frames, Tables, ...)
- QT Like Layout system to help arrange the widgets in the terminal
- True color support
- [TBD] Fullsize/Halfsize UTF-8 characters

## Limitations
- Only the key combinations forwarded by the terminal emulator used are detected (ALT,CTRL may not be handled)

## Try
