Cursor movement in target prompt doesn't work

[olof]

The target prompt (for editing a selected target) isn't allowing cursor movement (e.g. move cursor to beginning of line). Neither cursors (left, right) or "traditional" terminal shortcuts (readline's emacs mode) like ctrl+a (beginning of line), ctrl+b (move back one word).

This makes it hard to edit targets selected from the tree menu (e.g. filter the metrics through some function) (copy-paste in the blessed terminal ui is also problematic, so not a workaround).

From packages-locked.json:

  "name": "terphite",
  "version": "0.0.3",
  "lockfileVersion": 1,
  "requires": true,
  "dependencies": {
    ...
    "blessed": {
      "version": "git+https://github.com/benwtr/blessed.git#e7a82bdc8593c6a9ef03ec18fafdc9e061aedc83",
      "from": "git+https://github.com/benwtr/blessed.git#e7a82bdc8593c6a9ef03ec18fafdc9e061aedc83"
    },
    ...

If you want to have a go at fixing it, I'd happily take pull requests. You might be able to simply upgrade to the latest version of blessed.

Sorry, forgot to get back. But it wasn't as easy as upgrading blessed, and I didn't immediately found a more suitable component (I have no experience with coffeescript/blessed, so this shouldn't be taken as that there isn't one right before my eyes).

Thanks for this cool tool anyway!
