NAME

       Term::Size::Any - Retrieve terminal size

SYNOPSIS

	   # the traditional way
	   use Term::Size::Any qw( chars pixels );

	   ($columns, $rows) = chars *STDOUT{IO};
	   ($x, $y) = pixels;

DESCRIPTION

       This is a unified interface to retrieve terminal size.  It loads one module of a list of known alternatives, each implementing some way to
       get the desired terminal information. This loaded module will actually do the job on behalf of "Term::Size::Any".

       Thus, "Term::Size::Any" depends on the availability of one of these modules:

	   Term::Size		(soon to be supported)
	   Term::Size::Perl
	   Term::Size::ReadKey	(soon to be supported)
	   Term::Size::Win32

       This release fallbacks to Term::Size::Win32 if running in Windows 32 systems. For other platforms, it uses the first of Term::Size::Perl,
       Term::Size or Term::Size::ReadKey which loads successfully. (To be honest, I disabled the fallback to Term::Size and Term::Size::ReadKey
       which are buggy by now.)

   FUNCTIONS
       The traditional interface is by importing functions "chars" and "pixels" into the caller's space.

       chars
	       ($columns, $rows) = chars($h);
	       $columns = chars($h);

	   "chars" returns the terminal size in units of characters corresponding to the given filehandle $h.  If the argument is omitted,
	   *STDIN{IO} is used.	In scalar context, it returns the terminal width.

       pixels
	       ($x, $y) = pixels($h);
	       $x = pixels($h);

	   "pixels" returns the terminal size in units of pixels corresponding to the given filehandle $h.  If the argument is omitted, *STDIN{IO}
	   is used.  In scalar context, it returns the terminal width.

	   Many systems with character-only terminals will return "(0, 0)".

       It all began with Term::Size by Tim Goodwin. You may want to have a look at:

NAME

       Term::ReadLine::Zoid::Base - atomic routines

DESCRIPTION

       This module contains some atomic operations used by all Term::ReadLine::Zoid objects. It is intended as a base class.

       At the very least, to child class needs to define a "default()" function to handle key bindings and a "draw()" function which in turn calls
       "print()". Also the attributes "IN" and "OUT" should contain valid filehandles.

METHODS

       ANSI stuff

       "cursor_at($x, $y)"
	   Positions the cursor on screen, dimensions are 1-based.

       "clear_screen()"
	   Clear screen.

       "title($string)"
	   Set terminal title to $string. When using for example xterm(1) this is the window name.

       "print_length($string)"
	   Returns the printable length of $string, not counting (some) ansi sequences.

       Private api

       Methods for use in overload classes.  Avoid using these methods from the application.

       "bell()"
	   Notify the user of an error or limit.

       "loop()"
	   Low level function used by readline.  Calls "draw()" and "do_key()".

       "beat()"
	   Method called by intervals while waiting for input, to be overloaded.

       "read_key()"
	   Returns one key read from input (this is the named key, not the char when mapped).

       "do_key($key)"
	   Execute a key, calls subroutine for a key binding or the default binding.  If $key is undefined "read_key()" is called first.

       "press($string)"
	   Do chars in $string like they were typed on the keyboard. Used for testing puposes and to make macros possible.

	   If you give more then one argument, these are considered individual characters, use this to press named keys.

       "unread_key($string)"
	   Unshifts characters on the read buffer, arguments the same as "press()".

       "key_name($chr)"
	   Returns a name for a character or character sequence.

       "key_binding($key, $mode)"
	   Returns the keybinding for $key in $mode, mode defaults to the current one.

       "bindchr($chr, $key)"
	   Bind a key name to a character, or a character sequence. All bindings of this kind are global (you're using only one keyboard, right
	   ?).

       "recalc_chr_map()"
	   Recalculates the chr map, you need to call this after deleting from %chr_names.

       "print($lines, $pos)"
	   Low level function used by draw. Both arguments need to be array references.

BUGS

       Undefined behaviour when the buffer has more lines then the terminal.

       Please mail the author if you find any other bugs.
