AttributeError: module 'signal' has no attribute 'SIGWINCH' about pytermgui

I did some more googling, and found this StackOverflow answer and this github issue for Windows Terminal, I don't really know anything about the structure of the module but it seems implementable.

Hey! Windows support currently is very hit or miss, there's some quirks of the system I have to get around.

I currently don't have a Windows machine on me, but once I do I'll implement it.

As a note, I'm fairly certain at least one of the example programs is broken since they were written for an essentially different API. Once 1.0.0 is released I will update them and add some more.

Thank you for your interest!

I couldn't figure out an alternative for SIGWINCH on Windows, so for the time being resize events are unhandled on the platform. Thank you for the issue!

Though I'm not really sure how good of a practice it is, it is (probably) possible to start a thread that runs in the background and checks every 0.01 seconds or something if the window size has changed, then calls __update_size()

Yeah, that is definitely something I could do sometime later on. WindowManager already runs a separate thread for some actions, so it really shouldn't be that much of a bother.

Fun fact: I think the method you're suggesting is actually what I was using a couple months back, before all the SIGWINCH things were added. Funny how things are with windows sometimes, eh?

It also turns out that this issue was not really fixed, according to this comment, but some new commits should have fixed it properly now.

Reopening until I can confirm it was fixed.

So according to #6, this should be fixed now.
