0.0.2

MintTea

• Add support for custom events – any Riot message sent to a Mint Tea app will become an Event.Custom msg event, which enables sending data into TUIs from other processes.
• Add key type for key down events – this means we now get better discoverability of what key down events we can match on, and its easier to keep examples working
• Capture more key events: arrows (left,down,up,right), backspace, space, enter, escape.
• Move initial_state to the application start invocation – you can now run your app with multiple initial states, which makes it ideal for starting apps in the middle of other flows, or to test specific scenarios.
• Fix bug where TTY was not restored from RAW mode during normal shutdown.
• Now the Event.Frame time event includes the frame time, and all examples are updated to work with it.
• Add new Hide_cursor and Show_cursor commands, and always restore the cursor to visible on exit

Leaves

• New Leaves.Sprite module to create frame-based animations that are ticked at a specific frame-rate (Thanks to @sabine)
• New Leaves.Spinner contains several spinners ready to be used in applications (Thanks to @sabine)
• New Leaves.Text_input field ready to be used in applications (Thanks to @lessp_)
• New Leaves.Cursor that can be used to highlight where the cursor is in a given text (Thanks to @nguermond)
• Reworked Leaves.Progress to support plain and gradient progress bars with customizable empty/full/trail characters, and to fit right into the make/update/view pattern.
