Some terminal applications are positively deluxe. Completely decked out. Here are some examples (these are all screenshots from my terminal emulator):

So my question is: how do I design a terminal application to look like that?
For a tui, there are probably going to be a large number of (possibly reconfigurable) keyboard shortcuts and maybe some sort of command system. How you let the user know about all of them without having to memorize a giant table can be difficult.
That makes sense. In my case I’m looking to play around with the reticulum network / nomandnet so in that case the user would already be knee deep in the tui, so these issues could hopefully be avoided
