Introduce a ringbuffer #51

Closed steveklabnik closed 7 years ago

steveklabnik commented 8 years ago

This is the first step towards handling keyboards properly.

Also, I used an Option to try and keep things safe; this can be done with unsafe code as well, and it's more efficient, since we have an extra byte for the tag. But I think that's fine.

Nice idea to have ring buffer here..

I had never heard of a ring buffer before reading this PR, so I'm not super knowledgable, but having read up on it, this seems 👍

I might come back to this at some point, but this PR isn't gonna get merged. Closing!
