Open Source Linux User Interface (UI) Software

Simple Linux implementation of Borland's conio (conio.h) library. It uses Ncurses. It includes most functions required to write a basic application using conioh (i.e. getch(), cprintf(), puts() and more).

Jexer is an open-source Text User Interface (TUI) designed to outwardly resemble the Turbo Vision library used by various Borland products.

SDoc is a fast, easy to use Java syntax highlighting library for Swing. It is implemented as a custom Swing text document that uses JFlex.

Unicoder is a single header file that you add to your C or C++ projects which allows you to easily display unicode characters in the Terminal display irregardless of what compiler you are using. That is, it was written so that it would be portable so you can change platforms or compilers with ease. Currently it can be used on either the Windows or Linux platforms. Also, Unicoder can insert compiler specific commands that perform useful task such as clearing the console display or turn on bold and underline or change text font and background colors. And it provides a rudimentary way to draw on the display. Currently, Unicoder supports Ubuntu-Linux GCC and on Windows it can be used with these IDEs and compilers: MS Visual Studio 2017&2019, Code::Blocks, Pelles C, Embarcadero Dev-C++, Open Watcom, MSYS, MSYS2, Cygwin and with MinGW, Clang, LCC and Digital Mars C (but Digital Mars does not support Unicode!)

A simple, quick and plug-and-play wrapper for the curses library that provides a shell-like UI. Features include customizable prompt, tab completion, command history and thread-safety (simultaneous input/output). Scotty stands for Shell CreatiOn ToolkiT.

Java library that allows to integrate telnet to apps by taking care of the underlying telnet plumbing and delegating the business logic to the containing app through a simple API. Features include syntax coloring, custom commands, autocomplete, history.
