NAME

TUI::Drivers - Driver abstraction layer for the TUI::Vision framework

SYNOPSIS

use TUI::Drivers;

# Access common driver symbols from one import.
my $cols = TScreen->getCols();
my $rows = TScreen->getRows();

my $ticks = THardwareInfo->getTickCount();
my $ctrl_q = getCtrlCode('Q');

if ( TMouse->present() ) {
  TMouse->show();
}

DESCRIPTION

TUI::Drivers is the driver-layer collector for TUI::Vision.

Using use TUI::Drivers; imports the common driver symbols from the individual driver modules into the caller package. This includes constants, hardware/display access, event structures and queues, mouse support, and driver utility functions.

The module itself does not implement driver logic; it provides a convenient single import point for the underlying driver components.

It re-exports symbols from the following components:

  • Const Symbolic constants for driver and hardware behavior.

  • HardwareInfo Platform-dependent hardware backend access via the THardwareInfo symbol.

  • Display / Screen Low-level display and global screen mode/state management.

  • SystemError Driver-level Ctrl-Break/system handler coordination.

  • Event / EventQueue Keyboard, mouse, and system event handling.

  • Mouse Public mouse driver interface.

  • Util Driver utility functions for key-code conversions and related helpers.
