bestline on Windows ? #26

Closed vtorri closed 1 year ago

vtorri commented 1 year ago

Hello

Windows has now an emulation of pty (called ConPTY) and it seems that there are some support of VT100 codes. For example : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/terminal/samples

do you think it would be possible to port bestline to conpty ?

Thanks for asking. You need to use a POSIX platform if you want to use bestline. This project won't support WIN32. You can use Cygwin or WSL2.

what does this means: Support running on Windows in MinTTY or CMD.EXE on Win10+ ?
