A Terminal Protocol for Program Status: OSC 7501
Original: A Terminal Protocol for Program Status (OSC 7501)
A new proposal, OSC 7501, outlines a terminal escape sequence protocol that would let command-line programs report structured status information to the terminal. The idea, published by engineer Mitchell Hashimoto, has drawn attention among developers on Hacker News, where readers are debating how terminals and CLI tools could exchange progress and status data more cleanly than with ad-hoc output parsing.
Why now: Developers are discussing a concrete new standard proposal that could improve how terminal programs communicate status.
