[Python] Text Mode Layer (tml) - a terminal simulator with monospaced font support - komame - 10-06-2024 09:29 PM
I would like to present my latest creation, which is the tml module - a terminal simulator for HP Prime written in Python, offering the following features:
- Support for monospaced fonts
- Ability to use custom fonts
- Extended input function that works just like on a PC (allowing data entry at any position on the screen)
- Comprehensive keyboard handling implemented from scratch (support for Shift/Alpha along with locks, including key press holding)
- Option to define keyboard mappings for entering various special characters/diacritical marks, etc., directly from the keyboard
- Status bar (with the option to hide it) to display keyboard indicators and various comments during program execution
- High performance
The English documentation is included in the package.
The French, Spanish, and German documentation can be downloaded [here].
Below are some screenshots from demo programs included in the package:

UPDATE 2024-10-14 - v1.00 final release:
After a few days of additional testing of the 1.00 RC1 version, it's time for the final release:
- added documentation in Spanish and German
- fixed a bug in the HP mini font file (mini4x7.font) that prevented its usage
- added an additional check that throws an exception when attempting to load a non-existent or invalid font file
- added ligature characters: æ/Æ, œ/Œ to fonts with diacritical marks and adjusted the diacritic.py demo program
- added the 'Bomber Run' game to the Demos as a standalone application to demonstrate the use of the PPL wrapper with tml
The latest version of tml is available in the first post.
