[Idea/Suggestion - please feel free to ignore/close at any moment in time] Glimmer for the terminal? about glimmer HOT 2 OPEN

I just did a quick glance of your message. Before I read in detail and answer every question, I'd like to mention that I already use a TUI in Glimmer DSL for SWT's glimmer command (via TTY toolkit, which does the same thing you mentioned about the Shopify tool, but with friendlier syntax in my opinion).

What you suggest is a good idea. I'd be happy to support a Glimmer DSL for TUI that could enable building TUIs or automatically converting desktop apps built with Glimmer DSL for SWT or Glimmer DSL for LibUI into TUI apps just like how Glimmer DSL for Opal does that for the web (convering desktop apps into web frontend apps).

I'll keep this issue open until I've implemented such a DSL. It is low priority though as I need to finish adding more advanced features to Glimmer DSL for LibUI (like custom shapes, declarative area graphics drag and drop, and scaffolding) in the meantime.
