Console Preferences

There can be added the <consolepreferences> tag to compile in console-mode specific settings:

The consolepreferences accept nested elements with the option name as its element name:

Option Value Range Description Default

detectTerminal

true | false

Whether to use a JLine ConsoleReader for console mode installations, which acts as auto-recognition tool of system terminal settings. In dedicated environments this may not work reliably.

true - terminal settings are detected and the output acts according to the recognized terminal size and newline insertion behavior.
false - assume some "hard-wired" terminal settings (if they do not match your terminal output presented to the user won't look that nice, even though this is no critical issue for the installer internally)

true

Example

<consoleprefs>
  <detectTerminal>false</detectTerminal>
</consoleprefs>
