ConsoleSelect

Usage

The following example:

var consoleSelect = new ConsoleSelect();

var options = new[]
{
    new ConsoleSelect.Option<string> { Key = "option1", Text = "Option 1" },
    new ConsoleSelect.Option<string> { Key = "option2", Text = "Option 2" },
    new ConsoleSelect.Option<string> { Key = "option3", Text = "Option 3", Selected = true },
    new ConsoleSelect.Option<string> { Key = "option4", Text = "Option 4" },
    new ConsoleSelect.Option<string> { Key = "option5", Text = "Option 5" }
};

var selectedOption = consoleSelect.PropmtSelection("Select an option:", options);

Would render:

Select an option:

[ ] Option 1
[ ] Option 2
[X] Option 3
[ ] Option 4
[ ] Option 5

By default, UpArrow and DownArrow is used to move selection up and down. Enter is used to confirm the selection.
