=head1 NAME
Term::Clui.pm - Perl module offering a Command-Line User Interface
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Term::Clui;
$chosen = &choose('A Title', @a_list);
if (&confirm($text)) { &do_something(); };
$answer = &ask($question);
$answer = &ask($question,$suggestion);
$password = &ask_password('Enter password : ');
$newtext = &edit($title, $oldtext);
&edit($filename);
&view($title, $text) # if $title is not a filename
&view($textfile) # if $textfile _is_ a filename
&edit (&choose ('Edit which file ?', grep (-T, readdir D)));
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Term::Clui
offers a high-level user interface to give the user of
command-line applications a consistent "look and feel".
Its metaphor for the computer is as a human-like conversation-partner,
and as each question/response is completed it is summarised onto one line,
and remains on screen, so that the history of the session gradually
accumulates on the screen and is available for review, or for cut/paste.
This user interface can therefore be intermixed with
standard applications which write to STDOUT or STDERR,
such as I<make>, I<pgp>, I<rcs> etc.
For the user, I<&choose> uses arrow keys (or hjkl) and return or q,
and I<&confirm> expects y, Y, n or N.
In general, ctrl-L redraws the (currently active bit of the) screen.
I<&edit> and I<&view> use the default EDITOR and PAGER if possible.
It's fast, simple, and has few external dependencies.
It doesn't use I<curses> (which is a whole-of-screen interface);
it uses a small subset of vt100 sequences (up down left right normal
and reverse) which are very portable.
There is an associated file selector, Term::Clui::FileSelect
This is Term::Clui.pm version 1.18,
#COMMENT#.
=head1 WINDOW-SIZE
Term::Clui attempts to handle the WINCH signal.
If the window size is changed,
then as soon as the user enters the next keystroke (such as ctrl-L)
the current question/response will be redisplayed to fit the new size.
The first line of the question, the one which will remain on-screen, is
not re-formatted, but is left to be dealt with by the width of the window.
Subsequent lines are split into blank-separated words which are
filled into the available width; lines beginning with white-space
are treated as the beginning of a new indented paragraph,
individual words which will not fit onto one line are truncated,
and successive blank lines are collapsed into one.
If the question will not fit within the available rows, it is truncated.
If the available choice items in a I<&choose> overflow the screen,
the user is asked to enter 'clue' letters,
and as soon as the items matching them will fit onto the screen
they are displayed as a choice.
=head1 SUBROUTINES
=over 3
=item I<ask>( $question ); OR I<ask>( $question, $default );
Asks the user the question and returns a string answer,
with no newline character at the end.
If the optional second argument is present, it is offered to the user
as a default.
For the user, left and right arrow keys move backward and forward
through the string, delete and backspace erase the previous character,
ctrl-B moves to the beginning, ctrl-E to the end,
and ctrl-C, ctrl-D or ctrl-X clear the current string.
=item I<ask_password>( $question );
Does the same with no echo, as used for password entry.
=item I<choose>( $question, @list );
Displays the question, and formats the list items onto the lines beneath it.
The user can choose an item using arrow keys (or hjkl) and return,
or cancel the choice with a 'q'.
I<choose> then returns the chosen item,
or I<undefined> if the choice was cancelled.
A DBM database is maintained of the question and its chosen response.
The next time the user is offered a choice with the same question,
if that response is still in the list it is highlighted
as the default; otherwise the first item is highlighted.
Different parts of the code, or different applications using I<Term::Clui.pm>
can therefore exchange defaults simply by using the same question words,
such as "Which printer ?".
The database I<~/.clui_dir/choices> or I<$ENV{CLUI_DIR}/choices>
is available to be read or written if lower-level manipulation is needed,
and the I<EXPORT_OK> routines I<&get_default>($question) and
I<&set_default>($question, $choice) should be used for this purpose,
as they handle DBM's problem with concurrent accesses.
The whole default database mechanism can be disabled by
I<CLUI_DIR=OFF> if you really want to :-(
If the items won't fit on the screen, the user is asked to enter
a substring as a clue. As soon as the matching items will fit,
they are displayed to be chosen as normal. If the user pressed "q"
at this choice, they are asked if they wish to change their substring
clue; if they reply "n" to this, choose quits and returns I<undefined>.
=item I<confirm>( $question );
Asks the question, takes 'y', 'n', 'Y' or 'N' as a response.
If the $question is multi-line, after the response, all but the first
line is erased, and the first line remains on-screen with I<Yes> or I<No>
appended after it; you should therefore try to arrange multi-line
questions so that the first line is the question in short form,
and subsequent lines are explanation and elaboration.
Returns true or false.
=item I<edit>( $title, $text ); OR I<edit>( $filename );
Uses the environment variable EDITOR ( or I<vi> :-)
Uses RCS if directory RCS/ exists
=item I<sorry>( $message );
Similar to I<warn "Sorry, $message\n";>
=item I<view>( $title, $text ); OR I<view>( $filename );
If the I<$text> is longer than a screenful, uses the environment
variable PAGER ( or I<less> ) to display it.
If it is one or two lines it just omits the title and displays it.
Otherwise it uses a simple built-in routine which expects either 'q'
or I<Return> from the user; if the user presses I<Return>
the displayed text remains on the screen and the dialogue continues
after it, if the user presses 'q' the text is erased.
=back
=head1 DEPENDENCIES
It requires Exporter, which is core Perl.
It uses Term::Size.pm if it's available;
if not, it tries `tput` before guessing 80x24.
=head1 ENVIRONMENT
The environment variable I<CLUI_DIR> can be used (by programmer or user)
to set the directory in which I<&choose> keeps its database of default choices.
The default directory (changed at version 1.17) is now I<~/.clui_dir>
and the whole default database mechanism can be disabled by
I<CLUI_DIR = OFF> if you really want to :-(
I<Clui.pm> also consults the environment variables
HOME, LOGDIR, EDITOR and PAGER, if they are set.
