        What is ``pyte``?
        -----------------
        
        It's an in memory VTXXX-compatible terminal emulator.
        *XXX* stands for a series of video terminals, developed by
        `DEC <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Equipment_Corporation>`_ between
        1970 and 1995. The first, and probably the most famous one, was VT100
        terminal, which is now a de-facto standard for all virtual terminal
        emulators. ``pyte`` follows the suit.
        
        So, why would one need a terminal emulator library?
        
        * To screen scrape terminal apps, for example ``htop`` or ``aptitude``.
        * To write cross platform terminal emulators; either with a graphical
          (`xterm <http://invisible-island.net/xterm/>`_,
          `rxvt <http://www.rxvt.org/>`_) or a web interface, like
          `AjaxTerm <http://antony.lesuisse.org/software/ajaxterm/>`_.
        * To have fun, hacking on the ancient, poorly documented technologies.
        
        **Note**: ``pyte`` started as a fork of `vt102 <http://github.com/samfoo/vt102>`_,
        which is an incomplete pure Python implementation of VT100 terminal.
        
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        If you have `pip <https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable>`_ you can do the usual::
        
            pip install pyte
        
        Otherwise, download the source from `GitHub <https://github.com/selectel/pyte>`_
        and run::
        
            python setup.py install

        ``pyte`` is not alone in the weird world of terminal emulator libraries,
        here's a few other options worth checking out:
        `Termemulator <http://sourceforge.net/projects/termemulator/>`_,
        `pyqonsole <http://hg.logilab.org/pyqonsole/>`_,
        `webtty <http://code.google.com/p/webtty/>`_,
        `AjaxTerm <http://antony.lesuisse.org/software/ajaxterm/>`_ and of course
        `vt102 <http://github.com/samfoo/vt102>`_.
