How to create custom command

Head to _Projects/Scripts/BaseCommand.cs and _Projects/Scripts/Interfaces/ICommand for more information.

Limitation

• Currently the system is using Input.inputString. This works for Desktop and I haven't tested that on devices does not have a physical keyboard. You may consider modifying HandleInput function in SimpleTerminal.cs to suit your needs. A possible idea is to use a InputField.
• The cursor may not be 100% identical to the one in the real console. Normally, when you use arrow key to move cursor, the cursor symbol (which is _) should be under the character. Right now, it's c_lear.

Note

This project uses MorePerfectDOS VGA font for achieving retro visual. A huge thanks to the creator.
