I want to stdout a bunch of logging data

but also create a HUD over it

evidently not an easy task

so let's say you have libraries you made that print logs to stdout
well they would mess up the terminal output...
and then I guess you have to capture what they're trying to print and process it differently

annoying

no easy way to convert logging apps to terminal HUDs I guess

it has to be designed as a terminal app to begin with

ueeegghhh
