I'd like to use the shell console for i/o, but I want a signal when type-in is available. (My program can then wait on multiple input sources such as a timer and MIDI). I currently do this by opening a new window and keeping an outstanding request to a console via SendIO(). Whenever a character arrives, I process it and ask for more. The problem with doing this to the shell window's console is that when you exit, there is still a pending input request. Can the request be cancelled? Does anyone have some C code that gets around this? -Roger
