picoterm and conio

Terminal helpers for text-based interfaces.

picoterm

Function	Use
`wcwidth(codepoint)`	Width estimate for a Unicode code point given as an integer.
`wcswidth(text)`	Width estimate for text, excluding recognized ANSI escapes.
`split_ansi_escaped_string(text)`	Split plain text, newlines, and recognized escape sequences into tokens.
`sscanf(text, format, output)`	Parse decimal `%d`/`%i` fields into a list; return whether the format matched.
`enable_full_buffering_mode()`	Enable a 32 KB buffer on native standard output.

import picoterm

assert picoterm.wcswidth('hello') == 5
assert picoterm.wcswidth('\x1b[31mhello\x1b[0m') == 5

coordinates = []
assert picoterm.sscanf('12,34', '%d,%d', coordinates)
assert coordinates == [12, 34]

Width estimates use the module's character rules, not a complete grapheme or terminal-emulator model. The parser supports integer fields and exact literal characters, not the complete C scanf format language. It clears the output list before parsing and can leave partial results after a mismatch.

conio

On desktop targets with PK_ENABLE_OS=1, conio._kbhit() reports keyboard input availability and conio._getch() reads a character code without ordinary line-buffered input. These functions require an appropriate terminal and are not a portable browser/mobile input API.

For an embedded UI, prefer the application's own input events and output callbacks.
