It supports all UNIX and Windows terminals down to Windows 7 (not all terminals are tested, see [Tested Terminals](#tested-terminals) for more info). ## Table of Contents * [Features](#features) * [Tested Terminals](#tested-terminals) * [Getting Started](#getting-started) * [Feature Flags](#feature-flags) * [Other Resources](#other-resources) * [Used By](#used-by) * [Contributing](#contributing) ## Features - Cross-platform - Multi-threaded (send, sync) - Detailed documentation - Few dependencies - Full control over writing and flushing output buffer - Is tty - Cursor - Move the cursor N times (up, down, left, right) - Move to previous / next line - Move to column - Set/get the cursor position - Store the cursor position and restore to it later - Hide/show the cursor - Enable/disable cursor blinking (not all terminals do support this feature) - Styled output - Foreground color (16 base colors) - Background color (16 base colors) - 256 (ANSI) color support (Windows 10 and UNIX only) - RGB color support (Windows 10 and UNIX only) - Text attributes like bold, italic, underscore, crossed, etc - Terminal - Clear (all lines, current line, from cursor down and up, until new line) - Scroll up, down - Set/get the terminal size - Exit current process - Alternate screen - Raw screen - Set terminal title - Enable/disable line wrapping - Event - Input Events - Mouse Events (press, release, position, button, drag) - Terminal Resize Events - Advanced modifier (SHIFT | ALT | CTRL) support for both mouse and key events and - futures Stream (feature 'event-stream') - Poll/read API ### Tested Terminals - Console Host - Windows 10 (Pro) - Windows 8.1 (N) - Ubuntu Desktop Terminal - Ubuntu 17.10 - Pop!_OS ( Ubuntu ) 20.04 - (Arch, Manjaro) KDE Konsole - (Arch) Kitty - Linux Mint - (OpenSuse) Alacritty This crate supports all UNIX terminals and Windows terminals down to Windows 7; however, not all of the terminals have been tested. If you have used this library for a terminal other than the above list without issues, then feel free to add it to the above list - I really would appreciate it! ## Getting Started _see the [examples directory](examples/) and [documentation](https://docs.rs/crossterm/) for more advanced examples._
