Yes, I noted the default values, even if I don't understand

They allow overriding of the input/output files. fdIn normally
refers to standard input, fdOut refers to standard output, and
the getSizeOverride lets you provide a custom function instead
of the default, which is to ask the operating system for the
size of the terminal with ioctl.
I added those options to support my detachable.d program, which
is like GNU Screen - it can detach from the terminal and keep
running. Instead of talking straight to the actual terminal
files, it talks through a socket to a helper program which lets
it be reattached on a new terminal.
How do I get/process input? Looking at the source/doc it looks
like I should be doing something like this for an inifinite loop
breakable with Esc but it doesn't seem to work (in urxvt or a
plain xterm):
dchar charIn;
while(charIn != '\U0000001b')
{
auto myInput = RealTimeConsoleInput(&myTerm,
ConsoleInputFlags.raw);
charIn = myInput.getch();
}
