Can't install on windows

getkey doesn't work on windows. There is a workaround. Should try to find a different library that is maintained.

Oh, awesome! Glad to see a workaround for this (I thought it was just me!). I was going to try to contribute a small feature (first open-source contribution) but I could not get past this error. As soon as I have more time I'll try again to contribute my feature on the fork I made. Thanks for bringing this to the project issues so I could see it and try the workaround.

Glad it worked for you. @JnyJny was looking into doing something with the pager so we can remove getkey as a dependency and close this issue.

If getkey is the only problem, I think we can get rid of it entirely but either replacing the exit condition for the bite display with an keyboard interrupt (mostly Ctrl + C) or by displaying the information without a Live context manager that seems only necessary for updating information and not for static display. Will try to make a PR

I played a little bit and came up with two solutions:

• we can replace the quit_display function with a simple while loop that does nothing but catches an KeyboardInterrupt Exception, upon which we leave the Live context
• it seems to be even simpler to just create a new console object and print the current static layout:

  from rich.console import Console
  
  console = Console()
  console.print(layout)

  This way I was able to create the display in the terminal
