Splitting the console into 2 "parts"
Good morning,
I would like to make a little interface for an application which will split the console in 2 "parts": 1 top area to print messages & 1 command prompt. The printed messages are asynchronous to the command prompt, what I mean is that while while the user types a command a message can be printed. To be more clear I want to make an interface like vi in insert mode, but with a dynamic text area.... Personally, I thought to clear the console whenever a new message is to be printed and reprint it from the beginning with whatever a user has already printed, but I don't think that is good solution. Could you guide me to nicer solution ? Thank you. |

Sounds interesting, are you familiar with "curses"/"ncurses"?
Of course what would be really nice is if you wrote a generic windowing system using curses that just allowed varying sized terminals to occupy the windows and used pseudo-terminals to talk to shells or programs running in those window spaces. |
