Smith::UI::Block

Inherits Reference < Object

Blocks are what the TUI draws: every event becomes one, and the renderer decides which are already on screen (flushed) and which are still live.

lines must be free of IO — blocks are mutated by the turn fiber and read by the draw fiber, and the only thing keeping that safe is that neither side yields mid-operation.

Instance methods

finalized?

Whether the block has stopped changing, and can therefore be printed into the scrollback once and never redrawn. Most blocks arrive finished; the streaming ones say when they are done.
