 * $Id: linenoise.c,v 1.3 2020/05/22 05:53:27 johns Exp $ 
 *
 * Modified linenoise from the standard distribution by adding 
 * user context parameters for each of the callbacks, so that
 * the caller can pass in runtime-generated lists of command
 * completion strings without the use of global variables or 
 * other undesirable methods.
 *
 * Further modifications were made to the linenoise Unix TTY handling code
 * to allow VMD to control TTY buffer flushes when switching between raw and 
 * cooked TTY mode.  This is required so that VMD can switch to raw mode
 * for character-at-a-time input, so that linenoise doesn't have 
 * blocking behavior that prevents the VMD main loop from free-running.
 * With these changes, VMD free runs except when in actual command editing.
 * Correct handling of VMD console output is made more complex by entry 
 * and return from raw TTY mode, but it is a much more usable scenario
 * for the end user.

/* linenoise.c -- guerrilla line editing library against the idea that a

 * Does a number of crazy assumptions that happen to be true in 99.9999% of

 * Todo list:
 * - Filter bogus Ctrl+<char> combinations.
 * - Win32 support
 *
 * Bloat:
 * - History search like Ctrl+r in readline?
 *
 * List of escape sequences used by this program, we do everything just
 * with three sequences. In order to be so cheap we may have some
 * flickering effect with some slow terminal, but the lesser sequences
 * the more compatible.
 *
 * EL (Erase Line)
 *    Sequence: ESC [ n K
 *    Effect: if n is 0 or missing, clear from cursor to end of line
 *    Effect: if n is 1, clear from beginning of line to cursor
 *    Effect: if n is 2, clear entire line
 *
 * CUF (CUrsor Forward)
 *    Sequence: ESC [ n C
 *    Effect: moves cursor forward n chars
 *
 * CUB (CUrsor Backward)
 *    Sequence: ESC [ n D
 *    Effect: moves cursor backward n chars
 *
 * The following is used to get the terminal width if getting
 * the width with the TIOCGWINSZ ioctl fails
 *
 * DSR (Device Status Report)
 *    Sequence: ESC [ 6 n
 *    Effect: reports the current cusor position as ESC [ n ; m R
 *            where n is the row and m is the column
 *
 * When multi line mode is enabled, we also use an additional escape
 * sequence. However multi line editing is disabled by default.
 *
 * CUU (Cursor Up)
 *    Sequence: ESC [ n A
 *    Effect: moves cursor up of n chars.
 *
 * CUD (Cursor Down)
 *    Sequence: ESC [ n B
 *    Effect: moves cursor down of n chars.
 *
 * When linenoiseClearScreen() is called, two additional escape sequences
 * are used in order to clear the screen and position the cursor at home
 * position.
 *
 * CUP (Cursor position)
 *    Sequence: ESC [ H
 *    Effect: moves the cursor to upper left corner
 *
 * ED (Erase display)
 *    Sequence: ESC [ 2 J
 *    Effect: clear the whole screen
 *
