Interaction with UNIX terminals.

The :mod:`~humanfriendly.terminal` module makes it easy to interact with UNIX
terminals and format text for rendering on UNIX terminals. If the terms used in
the documentation of this module don't make sense to you then please refer to
the `Wikipedia article on ANSI escape sequences`_ for details about how ANSI
escape sequences work.

    This function emulates the effect of backspace (0x08), carriage return
    (0x0D) and line feed (0x0A) characters and the ANSI 'erase line' escape
    sequence on interactive terminals. It's intended to clean up command output
    that was originally meant to be rendered on an interactive terminal and
    that has been captured using e.g. the script_ program [#]_ or the
    :mod:`pty` module [#]_.

    .. [#] My coloredlogs_ package supports the ``coloredlogs --to-html``
           command which uses script_ to fool a subprocess into thinking that
           it's connected to an interactive terminal (in order to get it to
           emit ANSI escape sequences).

    .. [#] My capturer_ package uses the :mod:`pty` module to fool the current
           process and subprocesses into thinking they are connected to an
           interactive terminal (in order to get them to emit ANSI escape
           sequences).

    **Some caveats about the use of this function:**

    - Strictly speaking the effect of carriage returns cannot be emulated
      outside of an actual terminal due to the interaction between overlapping
      output, terminal widths and line wrapping. The goal of this function is
      to sanitize noise in terminal output while preserving useful output.
      Think of it as a useful and pragmatic but possibly lossy conversion.

    - The algorithm isn't smart enough to properly handle a pair of ANSI escape
      sequences that open before a carriage return and close after the last
      carriage return in a linefeed delimited string; the resulting string will
      contain only the closing end of the ANSI escape sequence pair. Tracking
      this kind of complexity requires a state machine and proper parsing.
