xterm is not available in the registry anymore

[0berstmarschall]

Hello,

I have an issue with installation of https://pypi.org/project/xterm/ . It looks like this package was removed from the registry.
https://pypi.org/project/xterm/ returns 404 http code.
Installation error:
ERROR: No matching distribution found for xterm

Description
Here is my verbose output of pip install

The xterm package was removed from the registry by the owner of the package.

The index response is accurate, and thus not a bug.

You likely want to explore other venues for this code.
