# pyTermTk
#### Python Terminal Toolkit
Text-based user interface library ([TUI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text-based_user_interface))
Evolved from the discontinued project [pyCuT](https://github.com/ceccopierangiolieugenio/pyCuT)
and inspired by a mix of [Qt5](https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/static/Docs/PyQt5/),[GTK](https://pygobject.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) and [tkinter](https://docs.python.org/3/library/tkinter.html) api definition with a touch of personal interpretation
