Customized extended fonts (and UNICODE) are interesting...as long as you can
work with at most two colors/cell. Some facilities for "color arithmetic" are
also in order. [E.g...being able to use the background color of the floor
against the foreground color of the monster; cf. Crawl Stone Soup for similar
ideas.]
Hmm. I'm embarrassed to say that this reply is totally Greek to me.
:-/ Can you point to a picture or two so I can understand what you
mean? Or, failing that, post some test code so I can look at what it
does? Or, failing both, explain in more detail?
More concisely:
The XOpen curses specification has no analog to CSS z-index. It's an extension
to render two layers of characters.
Of course, there's nothing preventing a true GUI from doing this....
