Render incoming messages on newline instead of inline

[roshnet]

Description

During chat, incoming messages appear right where the user's cursor points at the moment.
This, however, does not change the message content sent by the user, but sure is annoying to some extent.

Desired behaviour

Ideally, the user gets a fixed-width space (preferably at the bottom) with overwritable text, and all incoming text scrolls up the available terminal space.

Possible background logic

The user sends the message to the broker. If the user can be their own subscriber, the user's messages can then be received by the user themselves, as a normal incoming message.
This would keep all chats scrollable, to simulate what happens in most messaging apps.
PS: The user-input area can be flushed after every message sent, to allow for new text.

How can I reproduce this issue @Haider8 I tried with two tabs logged in as a different user and messages are getting in a newline only

[Haider8]

@Shanmugapriya03 Messages will come in a new line, which also set your cursor position in the new line. This shouldn't happen because it is so much distracting. This can be solved in two ways:

• Messages should be printed in a new line and then set the cursor in its original position or the entire message that we are writing should come below the received message.
  OR
• Messages should not be printed while we are typing. Once the user finishes typing it will then print the received messages.

@roshnet What do you think about this?

[Shanmugapriya03]

Okay will try this @Haider8
