1-- | Generic Terminal interface.
2--
3-- Defines the common interface supported by all terminals.
4--
5-- See also:
6--
7-- 1. Graphics.Vty.Terminal: This instantiates an abtract interface to the terminal interface based
8-- on the TERM and COLORTERM environment variables.
9--
10-- 2. Graphics.Vty.Terminal.Generic: Defines the generic interface all terminals need to implement.
11--
12-- 3. Graphics.Vty.Terminal.TerminfoBased: Defines a terminal instance that uses terminfo for all
13-- control strings. No attempt is made to change the character set to UTF-8 for these terminals.
14-- I don't know a way to reliably determine if that is required or how to do so.
15--
16-- 4. Graphics.Vty.Terminal.XTermColor: This module contains an interface suitable for xterm-like
17-- terminals. These are the terminals where TERM == xterm. This does use terminfo for as many
18-- control codes as possible.

47-- | Returns a TerminalHandle (an abstract Terminal instance) for the current terminal.
48--
49-- The specific Terminal implementation used is hidden from the API user. All terminal
50-- implementations are assumed to perform more, or less, the same. Currently all implementations use
51-- terminfo for at least some terminal specific information. This is why platforms without terminfo
52-- are not supported. However, as mentioned before, any specifics about it being based on terminfo
53-- are hidden from the API user. If a terminal implementation is developed for a terminal for a
54-- platform without terminfo support then Vty should work as expected on that terminal.
55--
56-- Selection of a terminal is done as follows:
57--
58-- * If TERM == xterm
59-- then the terminal might be one of the Mac OS X .app terminals. Check if that might be
60-- the case and use MacOSX if so.
61-- otherwise use XTermColor.
62--
63-- * for any other TERM value TerminfoBased is used.
64--
65--
66-- The terminal has to be determined dynamically at runtime. To satisfy this requirement all
67-- terminals instances are lifted into an abstract terminal handle via existential qualification.
68-- This implies that the only equations that can used are those in the terminal class.
69--
70-- To differentiate between Mac OS X terminals this uses the TERM_PROGRAM environment variable.
71-- However, an xterm started by Terminal or iTerm *also* has TERM_PROGRAM defined since the
72-- environment variable is not reset/cleared by xterm. However a Terminal.app or iTerm.app started
73-- from an xterm under X11 on mac os x will likely be done via open. Since this does not propogate
74-- environment variables (I think?) this assumes that XTERM_VERSION will never be set for a true
75-- Terminal.app or iTerm.app session.
76--
77--
78-- The file descriptor used for output will a duplicate of the current stdout file descriptor.
79--
80-- todo: add an implementation for windows that does not depend on terminfo. Should be installable
81-- with only what is provided in the haskell platform.
82--
83-- todo: The Terminal interface does not provide any input support.
