Raft is a terminal emulator utilising OpenGL v4.1.
The project is purely a learning exercise right now.
Ensure you have your latest graphics card drivers installed before use.
## Aims
- Full unicode support
- OpenGL rendering
- Full customisation options
- 256 colour support
- Clipboard access
- Clickable URLs
## Build Dependencies
- Go 1.10.3+
- On macOS, you need Xcode or Command Line Tools for Xcode (`xcode-select --install`) for required headers and libraries.
- On Ubuntu/Debian-like Linux distributions, you need `libgl1-mesa-dev xorg-dev`.
- On CentOS/Fedora-like Linux distributions, you need `libX11-devel libXcursor-devel libXrandr-devel libXinerama-devel mesa-libGL-devel libXi-devel`.
## Platform Support
| Platform | Supported |
|----------|------------|
| Linux | ✔
| MacOSX |
| Windows |
## Planned Features
| Feature | Done | Notes |
|-----------------------------|------|-------|
| Pty allocation | ✔ | Needs work for other platforms
| OpenGL rendering | ✔ |
| Resizing/content reordering | ✔ |
| ANSI escape codes | | Most of these are handled now
| UTF-8 input | ✔ |
| UTF-8 output | ✔ | Works as long as the font in use supports the relevant characters.
| Copy/paste | | Paste working, no mouse interaction for copy
| Customisable colour schemes | ✔ | Complete, but the config file has no entry for this yet
| Config file | ✔ | Minimal options atm
| Scrolling | | Infinite buffer implemented, need GUI scrollbar & render updates
| Mouse interaction | |
| Sweet render effects | |
## Configuration
Raft looks for a config file in the following places: `~/.raft.yml`, `~/.raft/config.yml`, `~/.config/raft/config.yml` (earlier in the list prioritised).
Example config:
```
debug: False
```
The following options are available:
| Name | Type | Default |Description |
|---------------|---------|---------|-----------------------|
| debug | bool | False | Enables debug logging
## Flags
| Name | Type | Default |Description |
|-----------------|---------|---------|-----------------------|
| --debug | bool | False | Enables debug logging |
| --ignore-config | bool | False | Ignores user config files and uses defaults
## Keyboard Shortcuts
| Operation | Key(s) |
