Add a default hint for the `multiselect` prompt #50

Closed jessarcher closed 1 year ago

jessarcher commented 1 year ago

This PR uses the hint feature introduced in #44 to add a default hint to the multiselect prompt, instructing users to use the space bar to select options. I went with the term "space bar" as it is the dominant wording used on Wikipedia.

A few people have raised this issue specifically referring to the multi-select prompt used in the Laravel installer, which will be many people's first exposure to Prompts and Laravel. We could just add this hint to the multi-select prompts in the installer, but ultimately it seemed more user-friendly to make it the default. If someone does not want the hint, they would need to pass an empty string to the hint argument.

Fixes #41 Fixes #48

This is great, thank you @jessarcher!

As the author of #41, I agree this solves the problem I ran into.
