CDK (programming library)

CDK is a library written in C that provides a collection of widgets for text user interfaces (TUI) development. The widgets wrap ncurses functionality to make writing full screen curses programs faster. Perl[1][2] and Python[3] bindings are also available.

Programs that use CDK

gollark: What sort of "title bar"?
gollark: A "bar"?
gollark: Also, their "smart" stuff is crashy and now sometimes you can't access even basic "display video sent on HDMI port" functionality without that.
gollark: Plus smart TVs tend to be hilariously insecure and break soon since they don't get updated.
gollark: Oh, yes, that TOTALLY works and there's ALWAYS an easy setting.
