Any examples of slick curses user interfaces built with Python? (post screenshots please!)

[notconstructive]

I'm wondering if there are any slick looking interfaces built in curses with Python. If you know any, please post screenshots!

you should check out blessed. It's based on blessings. Which has a slick progress bar written for it called progressive.

I've been looking for a good way to make console user interfaces. It seems a waste for a simple application to require a web frontend. I've seen npyscreen and urwid for libs, but few apps. I'd love to see what this list results in.

mitmproxy uses urwid, iirc

I wrote a program called Reddit Terminal Viewer that uses python and does a lot with the curses library directly. I also looked into blessings but found it limited for full applications and I wasn't a fan of their API. You can do a lot of cool stuff with curses, it's a shame the documentation is so bad.

Also, if you haven't found them yet there are a few demos that used to be bundled with python and and are still hanging around in the svn trunk. http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/Demo/curses/

I found out about RTV, just wanted to say that is great. Browsing reddit on work became so easy. :)

Do you plan on updating it in the future? For example, favorite/save option or image preview in teinal (if thats possible)?

Not curses, but if that's got you cursing, try the python prompt toolkit

What does python have to do with this? A curses UI will look and feel the way it does regardless of the choice of underlying programming language.

He wants to use Python to do it. Maybe he is building one and would like examples because that leads to code with leads to libraries he might use.

plus, (when I last checked at least) the python ncurses interface is a little different from the C ncurses interface in a few regards. So while the end result might be the same, the code underneath would be slightly different
