alt Hacker NewsI have to say, (caveat, I have not tried any of these yet) that I am intrigued by all these features like graphics being added to terminals. It feel like exploring an alternate timeline 1990s where the GUI “lost” — of course in the absence of a successful Windows and Macintosh, terminals would have naturally gained these graphical abilities 30 years ago.
That alternate timeline started in 1982 with the Blit terminal. [0] It was a GUI made of overlapping terminals that had a serial graphics protocol.
