Virtual Terminal

This code has been heavily inspired by Python's subprocess code, the `non
    blocking version of it`__, some minor online snippets about TTY handling
    with python including `Python's own ``pty`` source code`__ and `Pexpect`__
    which has already surpassed some of the pitfalls that some systems would
    get us into.
