Description:
 Ttyutils is a suite of UNIX terminal tools, it
includes ttyexec, ttylook, ttyadmin, and a few
extension programs.

ttyexec executes program in a pseudo terminal,
captures all stdandard output from program, passes
them to built-in virtual terminal emulator and
real terminal, virtual terminal then parse the
data, construct a virtual screen in the memory
which content was same with the real terminal.

by virtual terminal emulator, a event may be
trigger by a specific condition. most conditions
was output from program cause content of terminal
changed, but hotkey and cursor position event is
supported too.

when event trigger, a event hook will be startup,
that is a normal program you write, but can access
RPC interface provided by ttyexec, for example,
get current terminal snapshot.

ttyadmin is a administrator tool, which use
ncurses(3X) window interface, view and control
exists ttyexec instances.

ttylook similar to BSD watch(1) program, but has
fewer limits, and can interact with exists ttyexec
instance, snoop on that terminal output, or input
data to that terminal if writable mode was
enabled.
