# NAME

IO::Prompt::Timeout - Simple prompt interface with timeout.

# SYNOPSIS

    use IO::Prompt::Timeout qw(:all);
    my $answer = prompt('Yes or No? (y/n)', %option);
    my $is_timeout = has_timed_out();

    # Specifying timeout seconds
    my $answer = prompt('Yes or No? (y/n) Answer in 10 seconds.', timeout => 10);

    # Specifying default answer
    my $answer = prompt('Yes or No? (y/n)', default => 'n');

# DESCRIPTION

__IO::Prompt::Timeout__ provides _prompt_ subroutine most of which comes from
[ExtUtils::MakeMaker](https://metacpan.org/pod/ExtUtils::MakeMaker).

It also has timeout feature just like [Prompt::Timeout](https://metacpan.org/pod/Prompt::Timeout).
The default timeout seconds is 60. When prompt timed out, the default answer
can be taken when it's set by option.

Unlike Prompt::Timeout, this module uses simple $SIG{ALRM}.
The function of clearing timer by a single key click is not supported which is
implemented in Prompt::Timeout.
