Term package

The Term package provides support for building text-based user interfaces in ANSI terminals.

Terminal raw mode is opt-in: programs that use Stdin directly get normal cooked-mode input. To enable raw mode for keystroke-at-a-time input, construct an ANSITerm with a TerminalAuth (derived from AmbientAuth). Raw mode is restored automatically after a suspend/resume (SIGCONT) and reverted to the original mode when the ANSITerm is disposed.

For programs that need raw mode without ANSITerm, use TerminalMode.set_raw() and TerminalMode.restore() directly.
