v0.1.10RubyGems· Ruby

This gem exists to banish crusty UX that our users endure at the command line. For far too long we've been stuck with just gets and getc. When prompting the user with a list of choices, wouldn't it be nice to have the feel of a <select> in HTML? Or to auto-suggest options as they type? Or perhaps offer a password entry with asterisks instead of just sitting silent, which confuses many users? It's all here. Enjoy!
