use IO::Prompt;

# The input is taken from the __PROMPT__ section below
#
# Hitting <return> immediately after the prompt will cause the next
# __PROMPT__ line to be typed in for you.
# Useful for pretending to type without bothering with the keyboard.
#
# Hitting any other key immediately after the prompt will put you into
# "smart typing" mode: the next __PROMPT__ line will be typed in
# for you, one letter for every key you hit (no matter what key you hit)
# Useful for pretending to type without looking at the keyboard.
#
# Hitting <escape> immediately after the prompt will escape from the
# automated input process and allow you to type whatever you like
#
# Because the __PROMPT__ section ends with a line containing only <ctrl>-D,
# input terminates when that line is reached. If the last line *didn't*
# contain the <ctrl>-D (or <ctrl>-Z if you prefer) then input would
# continue from the keyboard after all the __PROMPT__ lines were used
