NAME

Term::Completion::_readkey - utility package for Term::Completion using Term::ReadKey

DESCRIPTION

This utility package contains few methods that are required for Term::Completion to put the terminal in ``raw'' mode and back. This package uses Term::ReadKey to accomplish this, which should be portable across many systems.

Methods

set_raw_tty()
Uses Term::ReadKey's "ReadMode 4" to set the terminal into ``raw'' mode, i.e. switch off the meaning of any control characters like CRTL-C etc. Also the echo of characters is switched off, so that the program has full control of what is typed and displayed.

Uses the ``in'' field of the Term::Completion object to get the input file handle.

reset_tty()
Resets the terminal to its previous state, using "ReadMode 0".
get_key()
Reads one byte from the input handle. Uses "ReadKey".
get_term_size()
Determine the terminal size with "GetTerminalSize" and return the list of columns and rows (two integers).
