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.
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.
Same as printf
but prints the result on stderr
.
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
.
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.
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.
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
).
pos_cursor()
returns a couple (x,y)
giving the current position of the cursor, x >= 1
being the column and y >= 1
the row.
restore_cursor()
replaces the cursor to the position saved with save_cursor()
.
resize width height
resize the current terminal to the given width
and height
.
size()
returns a pair (width, height)
giving the size of the terminal in character cells.
scroll n
scrolls the terminal by n
lines, up (creating new lines at the bottom) if n > 0
and down if n < 0
.
