The aim of this project was to implement a terminal emulator which can render a graphical view from standard shell text output. As of now, it's a bit buggy and not finished, so it cannot replace a traditional terminal emulator.

The latest checkout is available as a tar.gz available in the download section. If you're interested in the idea and would like to contribute, consider rewriting it from scratch. The current code in a merge of code from various open source projects and the glue was written in a few days, which makes it quite unmaintainable.
