use std::borrow::Cow;

/// Extension trait for anything that can behave like a string to make it easy to
/// escape control characters into a printable, `cat -v`-style representation.
///
/// Intended to help prevent control characters being printed and interpreted by
/// the terminal when printing history as well as to ensure the commands that
/// appear in the interactive search reflect the actual command run rather than
/// just the printable characters.
///
/// The representation is the POSIX caret/meta notation used by `cat -v`:
/// - C0 controls (`0x00..=0x1F`) and DEL (`0x7F`) become `^` followed by the
///   character xor'd with `0x40`, so NUL is `^@`, tab is `^I`, ESC is `^[`, and
///   DEL is `^?`.
/// - C1 controls (`0x80..=0x9F`) become `M-^` followed by their low 7 bits
///   xor'd with `0x40`, so U+009B (single-byte CSI) is `M-^[`.
///
/// Everything else — including spaces and printable multi-byte Unicode — is
/// left untouched.
