Nick Black, prolific Free Software developer and designer of Notcurses, introduces character graphics and Text User Interface design. The examples use the modern Notcurses library, but many of the lessons are applicable to TUI programming using NCURSES or Newt. Topics include the history of and current practice of terminals, Unicode (through 2020's Unicode 13.0), handling input from keyboards and mice, effective use of RGB DirectColor, palette-indexed pseudocolor, and alpha blending, loading images and video, construction of reusable TUI widgets, and more. These concepts are developed using rich examples. Nick graduated with a handful of degrees from the Georgia Institute of Technology, and has hacked away in the code mines of NVIDIA, Google, and several successful startups. He is a Senior Member of the ACM, and a consulting scientist at Dirty South Supercomputing and Waffles.
