NAME

Term::VT102::ZeroBased - Term::VT102 but with zero-based indices

SYNOPSIS

            

              
              
use Term::VT102::ZeroBased;
my $vt = Term::VT102::ZeroBased->new(cols => 80, rows => 24);
$vt->process("\e[H");                    # move to top left
printf "(%d, %d)!\n", $vt->x, $vt->y;    # (0, 0)!
            
          

DESCRIPTION

Term::VT102, a module for terminal emulation, uses 1-based indices for screen positions. I find this annoying. So this is a simple wrapper around Term::VT102 that converts 1-based indices to 0-based indices.

Why, in particular, would you want this? Escape sequences use one-based indices, so it makes perfect sense for Term::VT102 to use one-based indices. But Curses uses zero-based indices. And so do most other modules.

See Term::VT102 for the documentation on using these modules.
