What is `pyte`?

It's an in memory VTXXX-compatible terminal emulator. XXX stands for a series of video terminals, developed by DEC _ between 1970 and 1995. The first, and probably the most famous one, was VT100 terminal, which is now a de-facto standard for all virtual terminal emulators. pyte follows the suit.

So, why would one need a terminal emulator library?

To screen scrape terminal apps, for example htop or aptitude.
To write cross platform terminal emulators; either with a graphical (xterm , rxvt ) or a web interface, like AjaxTerm _.
To have fun, hacking on the ancient, poorly documented technologies.

Note: pyte started as a fork of vt102 _, which is an incomplete pure Python implementation of VT100 terminal.

Installation

If you have pip _ you can do the usual::

bash

pip install pyte

Otherwise, download the source from GitHub _ and run::

bash

python setup.py install
