Please consider using these Go packages instead, which should cover the same functionality:

• vt100 for coloring text, reading keys or drawing terminal "graphics".
• textoutput for coloring text, with tags like <blue>.
• readline for a pure-Go implementation of similar functionality to the C readline library.
• ask for asking users simple questions on the terminal.

Features and limitations

• Provides an easy way to get started drawing colorful characters at any position (X,Y) in a terminal.
• Uses ncurses and the gdamore/tcell module.
• Is simple to use, but vt100 may be more complete.
