So ingame minecraft buttons? or what

still missing the point, we already have buttons

Buttons you can put your mouse over, and call a event by left clicking.

So, it would be more like mouse support than buttons. If you have mouse support, you can make the buttons yourself in ascii art (not as fancy as you might want, but it's something).

@MysticT
I would like that to be implemented. I have no problem with ascii art but if you can take the position of your mouse and click.

[MysticT]

Yeah, I wanted that too, it would be really usefull even with no gui. There could be a "mouse_click" event with mouse position and button (left, right, middle) arguments, and a "mouse_move" event with the x and y positions as arguments. It would be usefull to make better guis, games, and some other things I can't think of now />.

then you could make an api for creating ascii buttons

being able to highlight text instead of a gui type thing would be best as dan wants it to be terminal based

But imagine how angry all those OS programmers would be? They'd have to redo everything.

Only the GUI, which shouldn't be a problem if they coded their OS properly />
