pty.js

forkpty(3) bindings for node.js. This allows you to fork processes with pseudo
terminal file descriptors. It returns a terminal object which allows reads
and writes.

This is useful for:

- Writing a terminal emulator.
- Getting certain programs to think you're a terminal. This is useful if
you need a program to send you control sequences.

Example Usage

`` js
var pty = require('pty.js');

var term = pty.spawn('bash', [], {
name: 'xterm-color',
cols: 80,
rows: 30,
cwd: process.env.HOME,
env: process.env
});

term.on('data', function(data) {
console.log(data);
});

term.write('ls\r');
term.resize(100, 40);
term.write('ls /\r');

console.log(term.process);
`

Todo

- Add tcsetattr(3), tcgetattr(3).
- Add a way of determining the current foreground job for platforms other
than Linux and OSX/Darwin.
