  Description     : Compositional widgets for terminal user interfaces, inspired by urwid

 Gowid provides widgets and a framework for making terminal user
 interfaces. It's written in Go and inspired by urwid (http://urwid.org).
 .
 Widgets out-of-the-box include:
  • input components like button,
    checkbox and an editable text field with support for passwords
  • layout components for arranging widgets in columns, rows and a grid
  • structured components - a tree, an infinite list and a table
  • pre-canned widgets - a progress bar, a modal dialog, a bar graph and a menu
  • a VT220-compatible terminal widget, heavily cribbed from urwid
 .
 All widgets support interaction with the mouse when the terminal allows.
 .
 Gowid is built on top of the fantastic tcell
 (https://github.com/gdamore/tcell) package.
 
This package in the dependency tree of upcoming "termshark" package (#927799).
