## Key Bindings
This file lists all of the key bindings currently registered by prompts.
## All prompts
These key bindings may be used with all prompts.
| <kbd>enter</kbd> | Submit answer. |
| <kbd>esc</kbd> | Cancel the prompt\*. |
| <kbd>ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>c</kbd> | Interrupt the prompt\*. |
\* Canceling and interrupting a prompt have two different meanings. Canceling is defined specially for when the end user is allowed to skip a prompt, the library user can then use `prompt_skippable` which wraps the return type into an `Option` and catches the `CanceledOperation` error transforming it into a `Ok(None)` result. Interrupted operations are closer to "stop-the-world" operations, where the library user should treat them as termination commands.
## Text Input
These key bindings may be used with all prompts that ask the user for text input: [`Text`], [`Select`], [`MultiSelect`], [`Confirm`], [`CustomType`] and [`Password`]. The [`Editor`] prompt is not included because it opens a separate text editor for text input.
| <kbd>character</kbd> | Insert the character into the input. |
| <kbd>left</kbd> | Move the cursor back one character. |
| <kbd>right</kbd> | Move the cursor forward one character. |
| <kbd>ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>left</kbd> | Move one word to the left of the cursor. |
| <kbd>ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>right</kbd> | Move one word to the right of the cursor. |
| <kbd>home</kbd> | Move cursor to the start of the line*. |
| <kbd>end</kbd> | Move cursor to the end of the line*. |
| <kbd>backspace</kbd> | Delete one character to the left of the cursor. |
| <kbd>delete</kbd> | Delete the character at the cursor. |
| <kbd>ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>delete</kbd> | Delete one word to the right of the cursor. |
\* Key bindings not supported on [`Select`] and [`MultiSelect`] prompts.
