clojure-lanterna's Issues

Corrupted characters on fresh ubuntu install

Using clojure-lanterna 0.9.2 I am getting a swing window that is too narrow and the characters are corrupted. After a bit of digging, it looks like the cause is with the default constructor in the Lanterna library, which defaults to using a "Courier New" typeface, which is not a default GNU/Linux/Ubuntu typeface.

To workaround the problem, I downloaded and installed a "Courier New" truetype font.

The Lanterna issue is here https://code.google.com/p/lanterna/issues/detail?id=8&can=1

support panel?

Hi, sorry but in the documentation I can't found if clojure lanterna support panels and GUIGuideComponents

https://code.google.com/p/lanterna/wiki/GUIGuideComponents

are they supported?..thank you...

Add put-sheet to the clojars repository!

This is an awesome function that I would love to start using. For now i'm forced to copy and paste it into my project. Let's make a new release and put it in!

Redraw writes green X's

I get a screen looking like the one below, when i try to run the following code:

(ns test.core
  (:use lanterna.screen))

(defn main-loop [scr x y]
  (redraw scr)
  (let [k (get-key-blocking scr)]))

(defn main []
  (let [scr (get-screen :swing)]
    (in-screen scr
               (main-loop scr 0 0))))

Any suggestions?

Can't require, java error.

I'm super new to this. Trying to follow your Caves of Clojure series is the first Clojure I've written outside the repl. I've gotten Leiningen and Clojure working fine, but I can't get clojure-lanterna to work.

It looks like Leiningen did resolve the lanterna dep since there are lanterna folders in ~\.m2.

Here is the error:

user=> (require 'lanterna.screen)
FileNotFoundException Could not locate lanterna/screen__init.class or lanterna/screen.clj on classpath:   clojure.lang.RT.load (RT.java:443)

Here is lein classpath (yes I'm on Windows):

Does not recognise modifier keys

The functions get-key and get-key-blocking are giving you all keys pressed. But they don't seem to recognise the Control, Alt & super (and on Mac Command) keys.

For instance, get-key returns 'å' when I hit Alt-a on my mac keyboard. Ctrl and any character just returns the character. It would be nice to let the program get {:mod :ctrl :key "a"} or something like that.

Feature Request: Hide Cursor

According to the Java lanterna if you set the cursor to null it will hide the cursor: https://github.com/mabe02/lanterna/blob/release/2.1/src/main/java/com/googlecode/lanterna/screen/Screen.java#L121.

However, This doesn't work Clojure lanterna because you hit a null pointer exception because x and y are undefined: https://github.com/MultiMUD/clojure-lanterna/blob/master/src/lanterna/screen.clj#L132.

Do you have any plans on adding this feature to clojure-lanterna? I'd love to add it through a pull request but I'm pretty new to Clojure and I'm pretty sure my code would be ugly and nonidiomatic.

Odd characters in Hello, World example

When I run

(let [term (t/get-terminal :unix)]
  (t/in-terminal term
    (t/put-string term "Hello!  Press any key to end.")
    (t/get-key-blocking term)))

in text mode, I get funny characters:

On OS-X, this happens when I :unix or :text. Haven't tried any other OS. It's not there when I :swing. Any thoughts?

Obtain character at coordinates?

Hi. There are plenty of functions to set text at given coordinates, but it would also be possible to retrieve rows or columns from the screen or terminal.

Plans on development?

Hello I enjoy using this library, but do you plan on doing more development on thie library?

I have created a little snake game using this library.

cheers!
