 Display a `query` to the user if it's specified, and then return the input from the user after it has been typed and the Enter key was pressed.  
 You can specify an `options` (see [Basic Options](#basic_options)) to control the behavior (e.g. refusing unexpected input, avoiding trimming white spaces, etc.). **If you let the user input the secret text (e.g. password), you should consider [`hideEchoBack`](#basic_options-hideechoback) option.**

-readlineSync tries to read from a console by using the external program if it is needed (e.g. when the input stream is redirected on Windows XP). And if the running Node doesn't support the [Synchronous Process Execution](http://nodejs.org/api/child_process.html#child_process_synchronous_process_creation) (i.e. Node v0.10-), readlineSync uses "piping via files" for the synchronous execution.  
+TTY interfaces are different by the platforms. In some environments, ANSI escape sequences might be ignored. For example, in non-POSIX TTY such as Windows CMD does not support it (that of Windows 8 especially has problems). Since readlineSync does not use Node.js library that emulates POSIX TTY (but that is still incomplete), those characters may be not parsed. Then, using ANSI escape sequences is not recommended if you will support more environments.  
+Also, control characters user input might be not accepted or parsed. That behavior differs depending on the environment. And current Node.js does not support controlling a readline system library.

 As everyone knows, "piping via files" is no good. It blocks the event loop and a process. It might make the your script be slow.
 
 Why did I choose it? :
 
-* The good modules (native addon) for the synchronous execution exist, but node-gyp can't compile those in some platforms or Node versions.
-* I think that the security is important more than the speed. Some modules have problem about security. Those don't protect the data. I think that the speed is not needed usually, because readlineSync is used while the user types keys.
