termui.Point replacement #223

Closed keithknott26 closed 5 years ago

Hello,

I'm planning to update an older v1 application to use v2 (or your latest code) but it appears termui.Point doesn't exist anymore. Is there a comparable replacement?

Thanks!

Hi, so the replacement for Point would be a combination of Buffer and Cell. A Cell represents the look of one terminal cell, and it holds the rune and fg and bg fields now. The fg and bg fields are also now done through a Style. The Buffer represents a viewable section of a terminal window, and contains a bunch of cells. The Cells are stored in a map of image.Points to Cells, so that's how you position Cells.

A lot has definitely changed, and the fact that the Point was split between a bunch of things doesn't make things easier :D So let me know if anything needs clarification.

edit: You can also check out the buffer.go and style.go files since that's were also this stuff is now.

Closing this but let me know if there's anything else.
