cat << EOF
Term::Clui offers a high-level user interface to give the user of command-line
applications a consistent "look and feel". Its metaphor for the computer is as
a human-like conversation-partner, and as each question/response is completed
it is summarised onto one line, and remains on screen, so that the history of
the session gradually accumulates on the screen and is available for review,
or for cut/paste. This user interface can therefore be intermixed with standard
applications which write to STDOUT or STDERR, such as make, pgp, rcs etc.

For the user, &choose uses arrow keys (or hjkl) and Return or q; also SpaceBar
for multiple choices. &confirm expects y, Y, n or N. In general, ctrl-L redraws
the (currently active bit of the) screen. &edit and &view use the default
EDITOR and PAGER if possible.

It's fast, simple, and has few external dependencies. It doesn't use curses
(which is a whole-of-screen interface); it uses a small subset of vt100
sequences (up down left right normal and reverse) which are very portable.
