// Package term provides support functions for dealing with terminals, as

// Putting a terminal into raw mode is the most common requirement:
//
// oldState, err := term.MakeRaw(int(os.Stdin.Fd()))
// if err != nil {
// panic(err)
// }
// defer term.Restore(int(os.Stdin.Fd()), oldState)
//
// Note that on non-Unix systems os.Stdin.Fd() may not be 0.

// mode and returns the previous state of the terminal so that it can be
// restored.
