I get the following error:
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
src/drivers/twid/twiddler.c: In function 'twiddler_rest_to_value':
src/drivers/twid/twiddler.c:503: error: cast to pointer from integer of different size

twiddler_escape_sequence() returns an int, which is probably a char.
I'm guessing that you want to put that into ptr or something, and return
that.

I've commented that part out.

I can start it, I can run the console-tools init script and it keep
running, but I don't see a cursor.
