Hi!

I have no idea, it is possible at all: I would like to include "text" i/o
(done by "scanf"or just "getchar") from an xterm screen inside the main events
loop - ie. a user should be able to perform a terminal dialog AND handle 
graphics in the same time. My problem - as you can see - is, a program may
wait for an event OR for <CR> satysfying the "getchar" function. 
I would like to avoid my "own" terminal emulator - xterm is there, so why 
to double it?
