#12139: Add TUI (text-based user interface) for GHCi -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: siddhanathan | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: low | Milestone: Component: GHCi | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- GDB has a really nice TUI mode: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/47/GDB_TUI.png It's a curses interface which highlights the line number you're on, and also shows the surrounding lines. GHCi currently allows stepping through with the `:step` command, which displays line and column numbers. It would be nice to have some visual indication along with these numbers. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12139 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
