NAME
       POE::Wheel::Curses - non-blocking input for Curses

SYNOPSIS
         use Curses;
         use POE qw(Wheel::Curses);

         POE::Session->create(
           inline_states => {
             _start => sub {
               $_[HEAP]{console} = POE::Wheel::Curses->new(
                 InputEvent => 'got_keystroke',
               );
             },
             got_keystroke => sub {
               my $keystroke = $_[ARG0];

               # Make control and extended keystrokes printable.
               if ($keystroke lt ' ') {
                 $keystroke = '<' . uc(unctrl($keystroke)) . '>';
               }
               elsif ($keystroke =~ /^\d{2,}$/) {
                 $keystroke = '<' . uc(keyname($keystroke)) . '>';
               }

               # Just display it.
               addstr($keystroke);
               noutrefresh();
               doupdate;

               # Gotta exit somehow.
               delete $_[HEAP]{console} if $keystroke eq "<^C>";
             },
           }
         );

         POE::Kernel->run();
         exit;

DESCRIPTION
       POE::Wheel::Curses implements non-blocking input for Curses programs.

       POE::Wheel::Curses will emit an "InputEvent" of your choosing whenever an input event is
       registered on a recognized input device (keyboard and sometimes mouse, depending on the
       curses library).  Meanwhile, applications can be doing other things like monitoring
       network connections or child processes, or managing timers and stuff.

PUBLIC METHODS
       POE::Wheel::Curses is rather simple.

   new
       new() creates a new POE::Wheel::Curses object.  During construction, the wheel registers
       an input watcher for STDIN (via select_read()) and registers an internal handler to
       preprocess keystrokes.

       new() accepts only one parameter "InputEvent".  "InputEvent" contains the name of the
       event that the wheel will emit whenever there is input on the console or terminal.  As
       with all wheels, the event will be sent to the session that was active when the wheel was
       constructed.

       It should be noted that an application may only have one active POE::Wheel::Curses object.

EVENTS AND PARAMETERS
       These are the events sent by POE::Wheel::Curses.

   InputEvent
       "InputEvent" defines the event that will be emitted when POE::Wheel::Curses detects and
       reads console input.  This event includes two parameters:

       $_[ARG0] contains the raw keystroke as received by Curses::getch().  An application may
       process the keystroke using Curses::unctrl() and Curses::keyname() on the keystroke.

       $_[ARG1] contains the POE::Wheel::Curses object's ID.

       Mouse events aren't portable.  As of October 2009, it's up to the application to decide
       whether to call mousemask().

SEE ALSO
       Curses documents what can be done with Curses.  Also see the man page for whichever
       version of libcurses happens to be installed (curses, ncurses, etc.).

       POE::Wheel describes wheels in general.

       The SEE ALSO section in POE contains a table of contents covering the entire POE
       distribution.

BUGS
       None known, although curses implementations vary widely.
