dart_console library
Console library.
Provides enhanced console capabilities for a CLI application that wants to do more than write plain text to stdout.
Console manipulation
The Console class provides simple methods to control the cursor position, hide the cursor, change the foreground or background color, clear the terminal display, read individual keys without echoing to the terminal, erase text and write aligned text to the screen.
Table display
The Table class allows two-dimensional data sets to be displayed in a tabular form, with headers, custom box characters and line drawing, row and column formatting and manipulation.
Calendar
The Calendar class displays a monthly calendar, with options for controlling color and whether the current date is highlighted.
Progress Bar
The ProgressBar class presents a progress bar for long-running operations, optionally including a spinner. It supports headless displays (where it is silent), as well as interactive consoles, and can be adjusted for custom presentation.
The class works on any desktop environment that supports ANSI escape characters, and has some fallback capabilities for older versions of Windows that use traditional console APIs.
