  • Accepts an enum and prompts the user to pick on of the fields.
• pub fn forString(writer, reader, comptime prompt: []const u8, alloc: *std.mem.Allocator, default: ?[]const u8) ![]const u8
  • Base function, asks prompt and returns non-empty answer.
• pub fn forConfirm(writer, reader, comptime prompt: []const u8, alloc: *std.mem.Allocator) !bool
