Screen Save & Restore #86

Closed WillianBR closed 1 year ago

WillianBR commented 1 year ago

Does anybody manage to save the screen and restore it later? I need a way to create a kind of draw app in TUI. But I need to be able to save and restore the screen/desktop to memory.

If anybody is using this TV library to create tools, please call me. May be we can exchange knowledge.

Hi Willian!

There's an official way to do this: streamable classes. However, I don't recommend anybody to use them.

Another person tried to do this, and they had to create a JSON file in order to read it later. You can find their project at https://github.com/IngvarRiga/TurboVision-dialog-designer.
