KeyboardAndInputModes¶

The KeyboardAndInputModes class provides ANSI escape sequences to manage keyboard and input modes in the terminal. These sequences control how the keypad operates and the visibility of the cursor, allowing for a more customized terminal interaction.

Usage¶

Application Keypad Mode¶

To switch the keypad to application mode, which is used by certain applications to interpret keypad inputs differently:

from ansitoolkit import KeyboardAndInputModes

# Set keypad to application mode
print(KeyboardAndInputModes.APPLICATION_KEYPAD_MODE)

Normal Keypad Mode¶

To switch the keypad back to normal mode, which is the default behavior for keypad inputs:

# Set keypad to normal mode
print(KeyboardAndInputModes.NORMAL_KEYPAD_MODE)

Enable Cursor Visibility¶

To make the cursor visible in the terminal:

# Enable cursor visibility
print(KeyboardAndInputModes.ENABLE_CURSOR_VISIBILITY)

Disable Cursor Visibility¶

To hide the cursor in the terminal:

# Disable cursor visibility
print(KeyboardAndInputModes.DISABLE_CURSOR_VISIBILITY)
