Term::ANSIScreen version 1.0 (Terminal control using ANSI escape sequences) Copyright 2001 by Autrijus Tang . Based on works of Zenin (zenin@best.com), Russ Allbery (rra@stanford.edu). All rights reserved. This module is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. INTRODUCTION Term::ANSIScreen, originally named Term::ANSI, was intended as an extension to Term::ANSIColor, which is a part of standard distribution. After consulting Term::ANSIColor's authors, its name had been changed to avoid conflicts with the original module. Basically, Term::ANSIScreen provides the same functionality as Term::ANSIColor (up to v1.03), as well as screen mode, cursor control and keyboard mapping sequences. The author (Autrijus Tang) is aware that the additional features are largely superseded by Win32::Console and Curse-based modules, but decides to put up this for the poor souls still using ANSI.SYS on DOSish platforms. See the POD documentation for complete details, features, and usage. INSTALLATION Follow the standard installation procedure for Perl modules, which is to type the following commands: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install You'll probably need to do the last as root. If instead you wish to install the module by hand, simply copy it into a directory named Term in your Perl library directory.
