So, I guess I wasn't the only one who thought this would be useful.
It would also be nice to have the cursor keys, editing keys, and some other
special function keys identified in a platform independant way as well. I
don't know of any language that can do that reliably. (curses/ncurses is
really just a Unix thing, the windows implementations are not great.) It
would be a great advantage to Python to support these things consistantly.
On the output side, a cursor relocation method would be very nice. It is a
very simple function which is a building block to creating useful interfaces
in terminals.
