Aewan is a curses-based program that allows for the creation and editing of ASCII art. The user is able to move the cursor around the screen by means of the arrow keys and "paint" characters by pressing the corresponding keys. There are dialog boxes that allow the user to choose foreground and background colors, as well as bold and blink attributes. The user may also select rectangular areas of the canvas in order to move, copy, and paste them. Aewan also supports "intelligent" horizontal and vertical flipping (e.g., it converts "\" to "/", etc). What sets Aewan apart from similar projects is the fact that it can work with multiple layers and has the ability to turn transparency and visibility on and off for each layer. A layer dialog is provided through which the user can change the order of the layers. Thus, each layer can be edited independently in order to generate a composite drawing. Instead of using the layers for compositing, it is also possible to use the layers as frames for an animation, thus enabling the user to create ASCII animations. The file format is easy to parse, so it is easy to write a terminal-based application that uses the Aewan files to display onscreen. Aewan has been tested on the Linux terminal, rxvt, xterm, and the FreeBSD console.

Omnitty is a curses-based program that allows you to log into several machines simultaneously and interact with them, selectively directing input to individual machines or groups of selected machines. You can run both line-oriented and screen-oriented in the target machines, because it has built- in terminal emulation capability. When the window is large enough, Omnitty also displays a "summary area" for each machine, in which it shows what the latest output from the machine was, so you can have an idea of what is going on in each machine.

ROTE is a simple C library for VT102 terminal emulation. It allows the programmer to set up virtual 'screens' and send them data. The virtual screens will emulate the behavior of a VT102 terminal, interpreting escape sequences, control characters and such. The library supports ncurses as well so that you may render the virtual screen to the real screen when you need to.
