Game screen: write terminal emulator or use libtcod?
Libtcod itself uses SDL2. It maps tile glyphs to a texture atlas and maps Unicode codepoints to tile positions. Then it has another data structure called a console which has the background color, foreground color, and codepoint for each tile on that console. It then uses SDL_RenderGeometry to quickly render the background and colored glyphs to an SDL texture, skipping unchanged tiles as an optimization, then renders that texture to the window. The C99 source is here: renderer_sdl2.h renderer_sdl2.c, a C++ version would surely look better.

what minor tech projects do you absolutely adore?
libtcod has always been a favorite of mine. Does a lot of things to zero fanfare outside the indie roguelike scene.

I've ended up recovering the old 1.3.2 to 1.5.0 builds of libtcod. You can find them on the GitHub releases page. Most of, maybe all of the other places which had these builds are down, but thankfully Jice still had copies of these builds.
