Add help text or expected input to multi-select prompts
afolson opened this issue · 3 comments
When presented with a multi-select prompt, it's not clear what input is expected in order to select options:

I looked in the docs but didn't see any info there. Ultimately I ended up on the issue tracker where another user had the same issue: #41 I tried various key combinations (y/n, 1/0, return, tab/ctrl/shift/alt/cmd combinations) but spacebar wasn't one of them 🫣. A line that says "Use spacebar to select options" or a mention in the docs (or both) would definitely help here.
@jessarcher You mentioned the possibility of adding this feature #41 (comment) so I figured I'd open up an issue to +1 the idea.

Perhaps you are looking for something like that?
PR #50 adds a hint to multiselect
prompts by default 🙂
