looks very cool, but running easy_install fabulous on Mac 10.5 installed a broken version. the demo threw some errors and the whole thing blinked and didn't show all the colors. blinking terminal....
might work if i build it myself and sort out the ld dependencies. anyway, still a cool project. not sure i'll ever have use for it...maybe for debug apps.
- lobstertech 16y agoThe library is complaining about not being able to find gcc. It'll still fall back to the pure-python code and work properly. I made a release this morning to make that error message a less noisy debug message. As for the blinking lights, rxvt based terminals like Terminal.app only support 4-bit color. I'll be making a 0.2 release soon to automatically downgrade colors for these types of terminals.

- jackolas 16y agoNot if you turn on ANSI color
- zephyrfalcon 16y agoIt works a little better in iTerm, at least it shows more colors, but it still has the blinking problem.
- fragmede 16y agoOn 10.6, it installs fine. After hacking out the PIL check in /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/fabulous-0.1.5-py2.6.egg/fabulous/{test,image}.py and fixing the imports to import Image, the demo runs okay. Which is to say Terminal.app fails to render; when using xterm and X11 locally, or ssh-ing from Linux into OS X, 'fabulous' looks fine.
