The Final Cut

The Final Cut is a programming library and widget toolkit that creates a text-based user interface with full mouse support. It supports the controlled handling of multiple simultaneous windows.
The C++ class design is inspired by the Qt framework. It offers common user interface elements like dialog windows, push buttons, check boxes, radio buttons, input lines, list boxes, status bars and so on.

newfont

A new text font for X11 and the Linux console.

Virtual terminal

It uses a virtual terminal to print the character via an update method on the screen.
The virtual windows are an overlying layer to realizing window movements.
The update method transmits only the changes to the virtual terminal or the screen.
