# Information about the terminal
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the terminal size in lines and columns (*from a script*)
|
||||
|
||||
This is handy when writing scripts in pure bash and `stty`/`tput` can’t be
|
||||
called.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
get_term_size() {
|
||||
# Usage: get_term_size
|
||||
|
||||
# (:;:) is a micro sleep to ensure the variables are
|
||||
# exported immediately.
|
||||
shopt -s checkwinsize; (:;:)
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "$LINES $COLUMNS"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Output: LINES COLUMNS
|
||||
$ get_term_size
|
||||
15 55
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the terminal size in pixels
|
||||
|
||||
**CAVEAT**: This does not work in some terminal emulators.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
get_window_size() {
|
||||
# Usage: get_window_size
|
||||
printf '%b' "${TMUX:+\\ePtmux;\\e}\\e[14t${TMUX:+\\e\\\\}"
|
||||
IFS=';t' read -d t -t 0.05 -sra term_size
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "${term_size[1]}x${term_size[2]}"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Output: WIDTHxHEIGHT
|
||||
$ get_window_size
|
||||
1200x800
|
||||
|
||||
# Output (fail):
|
||||
$ get_window_size
|
||||
x
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the current cursor position
|
||||
|
||||
This is useful when creating a TUI in pure bash.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
get_cursor_pos() {
|
||||
# Usage: get_cursor_pos
|
||||
IFS='[;' read -p $'\e[6n' -d R -rs _ y x _
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "$x $y"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Output: X Y
|
||||
$ get_cursor_pos
|
||||
1 8
|
||||
```
