Supports ANSI and (some) XTerm Control Sequences which can be used to do things such as clear the screen, move the cursor, change printed text color, ring a bell, and so on.
For an exhaustive list of terminal control sequences (not all of which are supported by GodotXterm) see ["XTerm Control Sequences"](https://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs/ctlseqs.html).

### (1) User Input
The user enters some data into the terminal, typically by typing something on the keyboard.
This corresponds to the `_gui_input()` method.
### (2) Terminal Output
The user input from (1) is processed by the terminal state machine and converted to the appropriate output.
For example, if the user were to press the downwards arrow key (↓), the terminal would then emit `data_sent()`
with the value `"\u001b[A"`.
### (3) Terminal Input
In the other direction, data can be sent to the terminal. This corresponds to the `write()` method.
### (4) Draw
The input from (3) is then interpreted by the terminal state machine and drawn to the screen.
For example if the string `"\u001b[38;2;0;255;0;mA"` was written to the terminal, then it would draw a green colored capital letter 'A' on the screen.
Emitted when a key is pressed. `data` is the data that would be emitted by the terminal via the [`data_sent()`](#sgnl-data_sent) signal and may vary based on the terminal's state. `event` is the event captured by Godot in the `_gui_input(event)` method.
- **DISABLED** = **0** --- The terminal's `update()` method will never be called. No new cells will be drawn.
- **AUTO** = **1** --- Only changed cells will be drawn after `update()` is called, but will switch to **ALL_NEXT_FRAME** when mass redraws are required.
- **ALL** = **2** --- Every cell will be drawn on every `update()` call.
Determines which cells of the terminal will be updated when its state changes.
By default `AUTO` will only update cells that changed, but will update all cells (i.e. the entire screen) on major changes,
such as terminal resize.
If you are having trouble with the terminal not updating correctly or exhibiting artifacts, you can try remedying this by setting `update_mode` to `ALL`, however, this will have a negative impact on performance.
## Method Descriptions
-<aname="mthd-clear"/> void **clear****()**
Removes all but the bottommost row of the terminal including scrollback buffer.
