Interface Summary

Interface	Description
AsynchronousTextGUIThread	Extended interface of TextGUIThread for implementations that uses a separate thread for all GUI event processing and updating.
BasePane	BasePane is the base container in a Text GUI.
BasePaneListener<T extends BasePane>	Base listener interface having callback methods for events relating to BasePane (and Window, which extends BasePane) so that you can be notified by a callback when certain events happen.
Border	Main interface for different border classes, with additional methods to help lanterna figure out the size and offset of components wrapped by borders.
Border.BorderRenderer
Button.ButtonRenderer	Helper interface that doesn't add any new methods but makes coding new button renderers a little bit more clear
Button.Listener	Listener interface that can be used to catch user events on the button
CheckBox.Listener	Listener interface that can be used to catch user events on the check box
CheckBoxList.Listener	Listener interface that can be attached to the CheckBoxList in order to be notified on user actions
ComboBox.Listener	Listener interface that can be used to catch user events on the combo box
Component	This is the main interface defining a component in Lanterna, although you will probably not implement this directly but rather extend the AbstractComponent or another one of the sub-classes instead to avoid implementing most of the methods in this interface.
ComponentRenderer<T extends Component>	This interface defines a renderer for a component, an external class that does the sizing and rendering.
Composite	A Composite is a Container that contains only one (or zero) component.
Container	Container is a component that contains a collection of child components.
InputFilter	This interface can be used to programmatically intercept input from the user and decide if the input should be passed on to the interactable.
Interactable	This interface marks a component as able to receive keyboard input from the user.
InteractableRenderer<T extends Component & Interactable>	Extended interface for component renderers used with interactable components.
LayoutData	Empty interface to use for values that can be used as a layout meta-data on components.
LayoutManager	A layout manager is a class that takes an area of usable space and a list of components to fit on that space.
RadioBoxList.Listener	Listener interface that can be attached to the RadioBoxList in order to be notified on user actions
TextBox.TextBoxRenderer	Helper interface that doesn't add any new methods but makes coding new text box renderers a little bit more clear
TextBox.TextChangeListener	Listener interface for when the TextBox content has changed.
TextGUI	This is the base interface for advanced text GUIs supported in Lanterna.
TextGUI.Listener	Listener interface for TextGUI, firing on events related to the overall GUI
TextGUIElement	This interface is the base part in the Lanterna Text GUI component hierarchy
TextGUIThread	Class that represents the thread this is expected to run the event/input/update loop for the TextGUI.
TextGUIThread.ExceptionHandler	This interface defines an exception handler, that is used for looking at exceptions that occurs during the main event loop of the TextGUIThread.
TextGUIThreadFactory	Factory class for creating TextGUIThread objects.
Window	Window is a base unit in the TextGUI system, it represents a collection of components grouped together, usually surrounded by a border and a title.
WindowBasedTextGUI	Extension of the TextGUI interface, this is intended as the base interface for any TextGUI that intends to make use of the Window class.
WindowDecorationRenderer	Interface that defines a class that draws window decorations, i.e. a surrounding layer around the window that usually looks like a border to make it easier for a user to visually separate the windows.
WindowListener	Extended BasePaneListener for Window that exposes additional events that are specific to windows
WindowManager	Window manager is a class that is plugged in to a WindowBasedTextGUI to manage the position and placement of windows.
WindowPostRenderer	Classes implementing this interface can be used along with DefaultWindowManagerTextGUI to put some extra processing after a window has been rendered.

Class Summary
