val set_autoreset : bool -> unit

Turns the autoreset feature on and off. It defaults to on.

val print_string : style list -> string -> unit

print_string attr txt prints the string txt with the attibutes attr. After printing, the attributes are automatically reseted to the defaults, unless autoreset is turned off.

val prerr_string : style list -> string -> unit

Like print_string but prints on the standard error.

val printf : style list -> ('a, unit, string, unit) format4 -> 'a

printf attr format arg1 ... argN prints the arguments arg1,...,argN according to format with the attibutes attr. After printing, the attributes are automatically reseted to the defaults, unless autoreset is turned off.

val eprintf : style list -> ('a, unit, string, unit) format4 -> 'a

Same as printf but prints the result on stderr.

val sprintf : style list -> ('a, unit, string) format -> 'a

Same as printf but returns the result in a string. This only works on ANSI compliant terminals — for which escape sequences are used — and not under Windows — where system calls are required. On Windows, it is identical to the standard sprintf.

Erasing

type loc = ANSITerminal.loc =
  1. | Eol
  2. | Above
  3. | Below
  4. | Screen
val erase : loc -> unit

erase Eol clear from the cursor position to the end of the line without moving the cursor. erase Above erases everything before the position of the cursor. erase Below erases everything after the position of the cursor. erase Screen erases the whole screen.

This function does not modify the position of the cursor.

Cursor

val set_cursor : int -> int -> unit

set_cursor x y puts the cursor at position (x,y), x indicating the column (the leftmost one being 1) and y being the line (the topmost one being 1). If x <= 0, the x coordinate is unchanged; if y <= 0, the y coordinate is unchanged.

val move_cursor : int -> int -> unit

move_cursor x y moves the cursor by x columns (to the right if x > 0, to the left if x < 0) and by y lines (downwards if y > 0 and upwards if y < 0).

val pos_cursor : unit -> int * int

pos_cursor() returns a couple (x,y) giving the current position of the cursor, x >= 1 being the column and y >= 1 the row.

val save_cursor : unit -> unit

save_cursor() saves the current position of the cursor.

val restore_cursor : unit -> unit

restore_cursor() replaces the cursor to the position saved with save_cursor().

Size

val resize : int -> int -> unit

resize width height resize the current terminal to the given width and height.

val size : unit -> int * int

size() returns a pair (width, height) giving the size of the terminal in character cells.

Scrolling

val scroll : int -> unit

scroll n scrolls the terminal by n lines, up (creating new lines at the bottom) if n > 0 and down if n < 0.

TTY

val move_bol : unit -> unit
val isatty : bool
