prompt (prompt, echo=true)

Displays the prompt to $stdout and pulls the response from $stdin. Text is always echoed in the clear, regardless of the echo setting. The first time a prompt is given and echo is false, a warning will be written to $stderr recommending that either Highline or Termios be installed.
