Interactive Wizard

Run the command without any arguments to launch an interactive wizard that walks you through the theme setup:

wp scaffold _tw

The wizard will prompt you for:

1. Theme name (required)
2. Theme slug (derived from the name by default)
3. Function prefix (derived from the slug by default)
4. Author, author URI, theme URI, and description (all optional)

After collecting your inputs, the wizard displays a summary and asks for confirmation before generating the theme.

--theme_uri=<uri>	Theme URI header value.
--author=<full-name>	Author header value.
--author_uri=<uri>	Author URI header value.
--description=<text>	Description header value.
--activate	Activate the theme after generating it.
--enable-network	Network-enable the theme after generating it.
