/**
 * # Terminal Riot Tag
 *
 * Provides a pretend commandline interface, capable of displaying output from a
 * "shell" javascript class. Multiple terminal tags can be used on a page, using
 * the same shell class or different ones - each terminal will work
 * independently.
 *
 * ## Defaults
 *
 * The default prompt is `'$'`. There is no default the welcome message. The
 * default shell performs no actions: pressing enter will simply move the cursor
 * to the next prompt line.
 *
 * ## Usage
 *
 *     <terminal shell='jsclass' welcome='text' prompt='text'></terminal>
 *
 *     <script src='riot+compiler.min.js'></script>
 *     <script src='he.js'></script>
 *     <script src='shell.js'></script>
 *     <script src='terminal.tag' type='riot/tag'></script>
 *     <script>riot.mount('terminal')</script>
 *
 * ## Dependencies
 *
 * - riot.js (http://riotjs.com/)
 * - he.js (https://github.com/mathiasbynens/he) for HTML Entity conversion.
 *
 * ## Making A Shell Class
 *
 * The shell class must be defined before the tag is mounted. Shells can keep
 * prompt and welcome message settings, and must define a `run()` function.
 * Here is the structure of a minimal shell that does nothing:
 *
 *     // Contents of myshell.js
 *     function() myshell() {
 *        this.prompt = ''
 *        this.welcome = ''
 *        this.run = function(input, terminal) {
 *          return ''
 *        }
 *     }
 *
 *     // Shell class used by Terminal Riot Tag in index.html
 *     <terminal shell='myshell'></terminal>
 *
 * The `run()` function can take 2 parameters. The first will contain user input
 * from the command line. The second will contain the terminal object itself -
 * this will allow the shell access to all of the terminal's functions, mainly
 * through its 2 child tags, `terminal.display` and
 * `terminal.commandline`. Refer those tags below for capabilities.
 *
 * A shell can, at its most basic operation, return a string of text or HTML,
 * and this will be appended to the display.
 *
 * ## Apps
 *
 * A shell can also return an object that will temporarily process all input,
 * until the object returns control back to the shell. This can be thought of as
 * the shell returning an "app" object.
 *
 * An "app" object should implement a `run()` function, just like the shell
 * class. It should also have exit conditions under which it will return control
 * to the shell by calling `terminal.returnToShell()`.
 *
 *     {
 *       'run': function(input, terminal) {
 *         terminal.commandline.hidePrompt()
 *         terminal.display.add('Hello! inputs will now come to this app.')
 *         if (input == 'exit') {
 *           terminal.display.add('Bye! Returning control to the shell.')
 *           terminal.commandline.showPrompt()
 *           terminal.returnToShell()
 *         }
 *       }
 *     }
 *
 * An "app" is an object, so can keep state information for a current run with
 * `this`. For more persistent saving of information, it is also possible to
 * save data to `terminal` or to `terminal.shell`.
