Develop a Cli application managing a command history
In order to use Text input to develop a CLI like application we need to call a text() inside a loop where the workflow is:
submit command
exec command
wait for another command
repeat until user cancel input
Problem 1 : Manage Up / Down
Using the standard text function I can't set cursor event handler to manage Up/Down key. It would be great to have another function (eg const textPrompt = (opts: TextOptions): TextPrompt) that return the underlyend customised TextPrompt
Problem 2: Rewrite prompt buffer
Currently the rl:ReadLiner property Prompt is private and I can't rewrite prompt value with command history. I would be great have a method allowing such rewrite
