The iterm is an internationalized terminal emulator framework, which is independent from any platform/window system. The iterm architectural diagram is as follows;
frame athena gtk+ based qt based other buffer widget gnome kde widget i18n based x termianl terminal based console terminal terminal +--------+---------+-----------+----------+--------+ | | xiterm |gnomeiterm | kdeiterm | *iterm | |fbiterm +---------+-----------+----------+--------+ | |libxiterm|libgtkiterm|libqtiterm|etc.....| +--------------------------------------------------+ | libiterm | +--------------------------+ | | pluggable bidi engine spi| | +---------+-------+--------+-----------------------+ |sun pls |ibm pls|fribidi | |liblayout| | | +---------+-------+--------+
the foundation of the i18n terminal emulator "libiterm" implements the "view" independent core i18n terminal emulator capability, including bidi support. the libiterm includes pluggable bidi engine spi. at this moment, sun's opensourced pls library(liblayout), ibm pls library, and fribidi are supported. Right now, only fbiterm and xiterm(libXiterm) are supported.
