struct TermBuf::ResponsePattern

• TermBuf::ResponsePattern
• Struct
• Value
• Object

Overview

A reply the application is expecting from the terminal, described by what it starts and ends with.

This exists because a reply and a keystroke are not distinguishable by looking at them. An arrow key sends ESC [ A; so could a terminal. The only thing that separates them is that the application asked for one and not the other, which is what registering a pattern records.

Defined in:
