Struct Cell 

pub struct Cell {
    pub symbol: CompactString,
    pub style: Style,
    pub hyperlink: Option<CompactString>,
}

A single terminal cell containing a character and style.

Each cell holds one grapheme cluster (stored as a CompactString for inline storage of short strings — no heap allocation for ≤24 bytes). Wide graphemes occupy adjacent cells. The leading cell stores the grapheme and every continuation cell has an empty symbol.

Fields

symbol: CompactString

The grapheme cluster displayed in this cell. Defaults to a single space.

style: Style

The visual style (colors and modifiers) for this cell.

hyperlink: Option<CompactString>

Optional OSC 8 hyperlink URL. When set, the terminal renders this cell as a clickable link.

Implementations

impl Cell

pub fn set_symbol(&mut self, s: &str) -> &mut Self

Replace the cell’s symbol with the given string slice.

Only the first extended grapheme cluster is retained. C0, DEL, and C1 controls are replaced with U+FFFD, and the optional hyperlink is cleared so direct symbol replacement cannot inherit stale link state.

pub fn set_char(&mut self, ch: char) -> &mut Self

Replace the cell’s symbol with a single character.

pub fn is_continuation(&self) -> bool

Return whether this cell continues a grapheme stored in a prior cell.

Empty symbols are reserved as continuation metadata; ordinary blank cells contain a single space.

pub fn set_style(&mut self, style: Style) -> &mut Self

Set the cell’s style.

pub fn reset(&mut self)

Reset the cell to a blank space with default style.

Trait Implementations
