Thanks for the awesome application!

I'm curious if curses allows you to fade out characters that are replaced/erased or even apply some transparency or fading in sync with the removal of trails.

Just a thought.

You can try running this application in "cool-retro-term" https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term

With right/click -> settings you have a lot of options to create the look you like.
