   As for the API, I'm thinking a blocking function for really simple use, just like a raw_input() call-

   def keyboard_prompt(initial='', prompt='', ok_button='OK', background_color='black', allow_empty=True):
       # implementation here
       pass
   

   So programs can use it like

   password = keyboard_prompt(prompt='Password', initial='qwerty123')
   

   Full example app:

   import tingbot
   from tingbot import *
   
   state = {}
   
   @button.press('left')
   def change_name():
       state['name'] = keyboard_prompt(state['name'], prompt='Name')
   
   def loop():
       screen.fill(color='black')
       screen.text('Hello, %s!' % state['name'])
   
   tingbot.run(loop)
