Classes

       The classes available for libcaca are :

       • Caca::Canvas : functions that have a caca_canvas_t* as first argument
       • Caca::Dither : functions that have a caca_dither_t* as first argument
       • Caca::Font : functions that have a caca_font_t* as first argument (The constructor can
         currently only accept the name of a builtin font)
       • Caca::DisplayCaca::EventCaca::Event::KeyCaca::Event::Key::PressCaca::Event::Key::ReleaseCaca::Event::MouseCaca::Event::Mouse::PressCaca::Event::Mouse::ReleaseCaca::Event::Mouse::MotionCaca::Event::ResizeCaca::Event::Quit
       The character set conversion functions are not available yet in the binding.
