[API] for animations

[jcubic]

I have idea for a new feature for jQuery Terminal

The code for animations is kind of ugly, there should be better API for it.

Maybe

term.echo($.terminal.animation(<Array of Frames>));

• New Animation interface
• TypeScript definition

[jcubic]

It may require create class for animation, maybe:

term.echo(new $.terminal.Animation(['A', 'B', 'C']));

and Animation class will be handled by renderHandler.

[jcubic]

Consider common interface for using on sub classes.

[jcubic]

Consider recording of animations of user typing and saving in compact JSON object that can be saved.

[jcubic]

Here is the POC https://codepen.io/jcubic/pen/VweodLO?editors=1010 single class that have render method and those methods that can be overwritten in child class.

Maybe consider rendering on Canvas.
