Start of work on a new input model. The current one uses
`s:evaluate`, which works, but burns through the temporary
strings pool. For this to be practical, I need to avoid doing
that, so it's time to write a replacement.

================================================================

Things needed:

- termios device & words (or add termios to unix device?)
- colors for interface elements
- write a better alternative to `s:evaluate` to avoid consuming
  the temporary string space
- refactor & document everything
