An example of a setup with a large output area and a small input area at the bottom:
<code csharp>
static void SetupConsole()
{
	const int Width = 80;
	const int Height = 50;

	NebolConsole.Console.Instance.SetWindowSize(Width, Height);

	var output = new ConsoleArea("output", 1, 1, Width - 2, Height - 4);
	NebolConsole.Console.Instance.Areas.Add(output);

	var input = new ConsoleArea("input", 1, Height - 2, Width - 2, 1);
	NebolConsole.Console.Instance.Areas.Add(input);

	// add the main area last
	var main = new ConsoleArea("main", 0, 0, Width, Height);
	NebolConsole.Console.Instance.Areas.Add(main);

	// add borders, they are drawn on the main area in this case
	// so they are not actually part of their own areas but around them 
	foreach (var carea in NebolConsole.Console.Instance.Areas.Where(item => item != main))
	{
		main.WriteBorder(carea, ConsoleArea.BorderStyle.SIMPLE);
		carea.Wrap = true;
		carea.Scroll = true;
	}

	NebolConsole.Console.Instance.OnKeyPressed += OnKeyPressed;
	NebolConsole.Console.Instance.OnStringEntered += OnStringEntered;

	input.SetCursorPosition();

	NebolConsole.Console.Instance.Update();
}
</code>


<code csharp>
protected static void OnStringEntered(object sender, ConsoleStringEnteredEventArgs ea)
{
	var area = NebolConsole.Console.Instance.GetArea("input");
	area.WriteLine("You typed: " + ea.String);
}

protected static void OnKeyPressed(object sender, ConsoleKeyPressedEventArgs ea)
{
	var area = NebolConsole.Console.Instance.GetArea("input");
	area.Write(ea.Key.KeyChar.ToString());

	area.SetCursorPosition();
	NebolConsole.Console.Instance.Update();
}
</code>

<code csharp>
do
{
	NebolConsole.Console.Instance.Update();
	Thread.Sleep(1000);
}
while (!shutdown);
