//! # Cursive
//!
2018-01-25 02:19:19 +00:00
//! [Cursive] is a [TUI] library - it lets you easily build rich interfaces
//! for use in a terminal.
//!
//! [Cursive]: https://github.com/gyscos/Cursive
//! [TUI]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text-based_user_interface

//!
//! ## Getting started
//!
//! * Every application should start with a [`Cursive`](struct.Cursive.html)
//! object. It is the main entry-point to the library.
//! * A declarative phase then describes the structure of the UI by adding
//! views and configuring their behaviours.
//! * Finally, the event loop is started by calling
//! [`Cursive::run(&mut self)`](struct.Cursive.html#method.run).
//!

//! ## Views
//!
//! Views are the main components of a cursive interface.
2016-12-12 18:19:41 +00:00
//! The [`views`](./views/index.html) module contains many views to use in your
2016-07-15 06:25:32 +00:00
//! application; if you don't find what you need, you may also implement the
//! [`View`](view/trait.View.html) trait and build your own.
//!
//! ## Callbacks
//!
2018-10-23 02:30:05 +00:00
//! Cursive is callback-driven: it reacts to events generated by user input.
2016-07-15 06:25:32 +00:00
//!
//! During the declarative phase, callbacks are set to trigger on specific
//! events. These functions usually take a `&mut Cursive` argument, allowing
//! them to modify the view tree at will.
//!
//! ## Examples
//!
//! ```rust
2015-05-15 19:16:58 +00:00
//! extern crate cursive;
//!
2016-12-12 18:19:41 +00:00
//! use cursive::Cursive;
//! use cursive::views::TextView;
2015-05-15 19:16:58 +00:00
//!
//! fn main() {
//! let mut siv = Cursive::dummy();
2015-05-15 19:16:58 +00:00
//!
2016-12-12 18:19:41 +00:00
//! siv.add_layer(TextView::new("Hello World!\nPress q to quit."));
2015-05-15 19:16:58 +00:00
//!
2015-06-04 18:40:35 +00:00
//! siv.add_global_callback('q', |s| s.quit());
2015-05-15 19:16:58 +00:00
//!
//! siv.run();
//! }
//! ```
2016-09-25 00:19:09 +00:00
//!
//! ## Debugging
//!
//! The `Cursive` root initializes the terminal on creation, and do cleanups
//! on drop. While it is alive, printing to the terminal will not work
//! as expected, making debugging a bit harder.
//!
//! One solution is to redirect stderr to a file when running the application,
//! and log to it instead of stdout.
2016-12-12 18:19:41 +00:00
//!
//! Or you can use gdb as usual.

// We use chan_signal to detect SIGWINCH.
// It's not how windows work, so no need to use that.
