Methods
Name | Description |
clear

|
Clears the screen.
|
color
(foreground, background, force, reverseVideo)
|
Changes the current color. See enum Color for the values.
|
flush
()
|
Flushes your updates to the terminal.
It is important to call this when you are finished writing for now if you are using the version=with_eventloop
|
getline
(prompt)
|
gets a line, including user editing. Convenience method around the LineGetter class and RealTimeConsoleInput facilities - use them if you need more control.
You really shouldn't call this if stdin isn't actually a user-interactive terminal! So if you expect people to pipe data to your app, check for that or use something else.
|
hideCursor
()
|
hides the cursor
|
moveTo
(x, y, force)
|
Moves the output cursor to the given position. (0, 0) is the upper left corner of the screen. The force parameter can be used to force an update, even if Terminal doesn't think it is necessary
|
reset
()
|
Returns the terminal to normal output colors
|
setTitle
(t)
|
Changes the terminal's title
|

Warning

on Windows and will confuse Terminal's internal state on Posix.
