Key bindings

This file lists all the key bindings currently registered by prompts.

All prompts

These key bindings may be used with all prompts.

command	description
enter	Submit answer.
esc	Cancel the prompt*.
ctrl + c	Interrupt the prompt*.

* Cancelling and interrupting a prompt have two different meanings.

Cancelling is defined specially for when the end user is allowed to skip a prompt.

The library user can then use prompt_skippable which wraps the return type into an Option and catches the CanceledOperation error transforming it into a Ok(None) result.

Interrupted operations are closer to "stop-the-world" operations, where the library user should treat them as termination commands.

Text input

These key bindings may be used with all prompts that ask the user for text input: [Text], [Select], [MultiSelect], [Confirm], [CustomType] and [Password].

The [Editor] prompt is not included because it opens a separate text editor for text input.

character	Insert the character into the input.
left	Move the cursor back one character.
right	Move the cursor forward one character.
ctrl + left	Move one word to the left of the cursor.

home	Move cursor to the start of the line.
end	Move cursor to the end of the line*.
backspace	Delete one character to the left of the cursor.
delete	Delete the character at the cursor.
ctrl + delete	Delete one word to the right of the cursor.
