The EF is software developed in Java by the international KEEP project, co-funded by the European Unions 7th Framework. I'm interested in feedback on the library. Emulation Framework v.2.1.0 The Emulation Framework offers a convenient way to render digital files in their native computer environment. Here's an example of a top(1)-like Arduino status monitor sketch: * reading arrow & function keys (F1 - F4)
* setting foreground & background colors from the standard 8 color palette * setting NORMAL, BOLD, UNDERLINE, BLINK & REVERSE character attributes It's in a useful state, but there is still more to be done.
It delegates reading & writing to a Stream device, so it should be usable with SoftSerial or even I2C, although it has only been used with HardwareSerial so far. I've implemented a simple library for controlling ANSI/VT100/VT220 terminals over the serial port. I'm still looking into upgrading SerialMonitor into a real terminal emulator, but I'd like to announce a convenient way to use VT100/ANSI escapes. The answer is always, 'Use VT100/ANSI escapes' and 'Use a real terminal emulator instead of SerialMonitor'. Every so often a thread comes up asking how to position text on the SerialMonitor in a consistent place to get away from the pages of scrolling text.
