Subsequent early releases added 256 color pairs, mouse support, BMP loading, image viewing through cacaview, antialiasing, dithering controls, alpha handling, and the cacafire demo. The 0.99 beta line expanded libcaca from a funny terminal renderer into a surprisingly broad text-graphics toolkit. The 0.99.beta1 notes list a switch to the WTFPL, a split into libcucul and libcaca, Unicode and TrueColor support, Floyd-Steinberg dithering, gamma correction, export formats including HTML, IRC, ANSI, SVG, PostScript, and TGA, OpenGL output, a telnet server, and image-to-IRC tooling. The 0.99.beta15 notes say libcucul was merged back into libcaca for clarity. ### 采用历史 libcaca became widely packaged because it is both a library and a memorable collection of terminal demos and converters. Distribution packages often expose caca-utils commands such as cacaview, img2txt, cacafire, cacademo, and cacaplay. ### 使用方式 Developers can link against libcaca through pkg-config, while end users use tools such as img2txt and cacaview to convert or view pixel images in terminals. The README documents optional output backends including ncurses, S-Lang, conio, X11, OpenGL, Win32, and a network server. ### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心 libcaca is package-index folklore: useful enough to ship everywhere, unserious enough to be remembered, and technically richer than the joke suggests. Its presence in package managers marks the long Unix tradition of terminal graphics, demos, and image conversion tools. ### 时间线 - 0.1: Initial release with S-Lang, ncurses, conio drivers, and basic drawing primitives. - 0.99.beta1: Switched to WTFPL, split libcucul from libcaca, and added Unicode, TrueColor, dithering, exporters, OpenGL, cacaserver, and img2irc. - 2008-09-27: v0.99.beta14 and v0.99.beta15 tags were published on GitHub. - 2010-02-08: v0.99.beta17 tag was published on GitHub. - 2012-04-06: v0.99.beta18 tag was published on GitHub. - 2013-09-16: v0.99.beta19 tag was published on GitHub. - 2021-10-19: v0.99.beta20 release added IPv6 support in cacaserver and memory-safety fixes. ### Related projects - Related projects and concepts include aalib-style text rendering, FIGlet and TOIlet fonts, ncurses, S-Lang, Imlib2-backed image viewing, OpenGL text output, and terminal demo programs such as cacafire. ### 来源 -
