Save ('s') and restore ('u') support added #137
Conversation
Existing 'get_position' method is flawed in the following ways: * Naming: its setter is 'set_cursor_position', not 'set_position' * Abstraction leak: returns internal Win32 structure * There is no way to get adjusted cursor position * Receives handle, instead of on_stderr flag
There are no more uses of get_position in the code base, so it could be deprecated, and, possibly, removed in future

I'm not sure if we need this function. We already have get_position which returns the cursor position (we can rename that function to make it clear it's about the cursor). Regarding the adjustments, we have a code for adjusting the cursor position in SetConsoleCursorPosition. We can play with its adjust parameter based on if it's needed or not when restoring with 'u', instead of having more code that deals with this adjustments.

I'm sensitive to wiggin's criticism here which I think might be valid, but am enthusiastic about the PR overall. Assuming @kgeorgiy is not still around / motivated after 4 years, I'll take a closer look at this code tonight, and try to merge it...
Apologies for resurrecting this after ignoring it for years!

If we decide to continue to use get_position instead of the new get_cursor_position, we will not need this change.

Hey. FYI, yesterday I created a PR to test releases before we push them to PyPI. When that is merged, I'll be more confident about resuming merges and releases. I'll try to look at this PR soon. Thank you for creating it! |

I could have used this feature right now. Anyone with privileges, please take another look. |
Includes test and demo plus minor refactoring of ansitowin32
