This adds a function to obtain file descriptors from termbox that can be be polled for IO-readiness.
This can be used to integrate termbox into an event loop like asyncio or curio in python, or libuv in C, so the program can process other things (like network sockets) asynchronously with UI events.
The idea is to use
tb_poll_fds()
to get a set of descriptors, register them for polling (e.g. withEPOLLIN
), and when any events arrive, the nexttb_poll_event()
can be expected to complete quickly.(edit: markdown formatting and C usage example)
