buildOutput :: VtyUserConfig -> UnixSettings -> IO Output

Returns an Output for the terminal specified in UnixSettings.

The specific output implementation chosen is based on the TERM environment variable and ultimately uses Graphics.Vty.Platform.Unix.Output.XTermColor for terminals that look xterm-like or Graphics.Vty.Platform.Unix.Output.TerminfoBased as a fallback otherwise.

• If TERM starts with xterm, screen, rxvt, or tmux, this will the xterm-based implementation.
• Otherwise this will use the TerminfoBased implementation.
