TTY library
===========

[](#tty-library)

This library contains functionality for working with TTY/PTYs and related formats and protocols.

Included:
---------

[](#included)

- A ttyrec parser (extracts frames with payload and timing from ttyrec files)
- A VT100/ANSI Terminal Emulator. Parses escape codes, CSI, OSI etc commands
- An AsciiRenderer, to render Terminal buffers for replays and debugging
- Examples in [examples/](examples/)

How to use
----------

[](#how-to-use)

```
composer install
ttyrec tty.log
# execute some commands, like ls, df, etc
exit
php examples/ttyrec-player.php

```

Notes
-----

[](#notes)

When starting this project I had no idea what I was getting in to. VT100 is an insane protocol. I'm keeping notes on things I'm learning along the way in [NOTES.md](NOTES.md)

TODO / Next steps:
------------------

[](#todo--next-steps)

- Extract executed commands from tty sessions (initial goal of this project)
- Solid test-cases based on pre-recorded tty sessions
- Support more escape codes for coloring, scrolling and other more advanced use-cases
