public class TerminalView extends Canvas

Widget

└ Canvas

└ TerminalView

Reusable interactive terminal widget backed by PseudoTerminal.

TerminalView is intentionally part of the GUI library, not the editor tool, so applications can embed a real shell-like terminal with keyboard input, ANSI line editing, scrolling and process lifecycle notification. In a docked tab surface, that surface owns the frame and focus contour; the terminal paints a flat background without an additional inner border.

terminal = TerminalView()
terminal.terminated += lambda(e as ActionEvent): print("shell closed")
terminal.runCommand("pwd")
