  Description     : Node.js library to allow one to fork processes with pseudoterminal file descriptors

node-node-pty provides forkpty bindings for node.js. This allows one to fork
processes with pseudoterminal file descriptors. It returns a terminal object
which allows reads and writes. This is useful for:
 * Writing a terminal emulator
 * Getting certain programs to think they are in a terminal

node-node-pty is a dependency of node-xterm 5 which is needed to build
node-jupyterlab. Will be maintained under JS Team umbrella.
