    ConsoleDriver

    ConsoleDriver is an abstract class that defines the requirements for a console driver. There are currently three implementations: Terminal.Gui.CursesDriver (for Unix and Mac), Terminal.Gui.WindowsDriver, and Terminal.Gui.NetDriver that uses the .NET Console API.

    ScrollView

    Scrollviews are views that present a window into a virtual space where subviews are added. Similar to the iOS UIScrollView.

    StatusBar

    A status bar is a View that snaps to the bottom of a Toplevel displaying set of StatusItems. The StatusBar should be context sensitive. This means, if the main menu and an open text editor are visible, the items probably shown will be ~F1~ Help ~F2~ Save ~F3~ Load. While a dialog to ask a file to load is executed, the remaining commands will probably be ~F1~ Help. So for each context must be a new instance of a statusbar.

    StatusItem

    StatusItem objects are contained by StatusBar Views. Each StatusItem has a title, a shortcut (hotkey), and an Action that will be invoked when the Shortcut is pressed. The Shortcut will be a global hotkey for the application in the current context of the screen. The colour of the Title will be changed after each ~. A Title set to `~F1~ Help` will render as *F1* using HotNormal and *Help* as HotNormal.
