xterminal

Overview ¶

Package xterminal provides functions to change termios or console attributes and restore them later on. It supports Unix and Windows.

This does the same thing as x/crypto/ssh/terminal on Linux. On Windows, it sets the same console modes as the terminal package but also sets `ENABLE_VIRTUAL_TERMINAL_INPUT` and `ENABLE_VIRTUAL_TERMINAL_PROCESSING` to allow for VT100 sequences in the console. This is important, otherwise Linux apps (with colors or ncurses) that are run through SSH or wsep get garbled in a Windows console.
