//
//   Description:
//
//   This class inherits the class G4UIsession.
//   This is the class to use a character-terminal sesion.
//
//   Usage:  
//       G4UIsession* terminalSession = new G4UIterminal; 
//   or  G4UIsession* terminalSession = new G4UIterminal(new your-shell); 
//
//     A character-terminal session  "terminalSession" is instantiated.
//     G4cout stream is redirected by default to the constructed instance.
//
//   terminalSession-> SessionStart(); // "terminalSession" is started.
//   delete terminalSession;           // "terminalSession"  is deleted.
//
//
//   In default(no arguments are given), csh-like shell is instantiated.
//   If you want to use another shell (e.g. tcsh-like), you can give
//   your favorite shell in an argument of the constructor.
//
//   Which shell? / How to define your own shell?
//   Currently two kinds of shells,
//                   G4UIcsh / G4UItcsh
//   , are presented. 
//   They inherit the abstract base class, G4VUIshell.
//   In order to define your own shell, 
//     - Define your own shell class derived from G4VUIshell.
//     - Implement GetCommandLine() method (pure virtual).
//     - Add more functionality, if need.
//
//   For more detail, see source codes.
