If you want an embedded shell but you don't want a fully emulated terminal, it begs the question what output are you looking for? |

I would love a widget to support an embedded shell or terminal within a Textual application. Basically I would like to be able to wrap an existing interactive command-line application within a Textual app in order to provide much richer realtime display of information and status.
I have no idea how easy or hard this might be, but it would be a very powerful use case that would allow developers to quickly extend the functionality of existing applications without having to completely rewrite them from scratch.
I see there is an existing 3rd-party textual-terminal widget but it isn't particularly well maintained and is also extremely slow because it is fully emulating a terminal in Python. I would like something that is performant.
