Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am unable to set the terminal cursor position reliably (the real one, not the one rendered by the TextArea bubble). I have tried using direct ANSI escape codes as well as instantiating a separate termenv
Output
structure. In both cases the cursor can be moved, but as soon as I render anything with my View method the cursor pops back down to the bottom left corner of the terminal.
Note that I am able to make the cursor visible by returning a tea.ShowCursor
message from my Update
method.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to see a new command generator function added to the API, similar to the SetWindowTitle
function. Perhaps
func SetCursorPosition(row int, column int) Cmd
Using this function should set the position of the cursor and it should stay in that position until the method is called again.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I know that the TextArea
bubble uses a rendered cursor by setting a background color on the character at the cursor position. This works for a block cursor, and an underscore cursor could work similarly, but I'm not aware of a way to render a bar cursor (vertical line to the left of the character under the cursor) with this approach.
