It compiled fine, but as soon as it hits the first "press any key to continue" it locks up completely, and the only thing I can type is ctrl-Z to suspend it, and that locks up the shell and I have to reboot. I'm wondering if this is related to the problems 386bsd has about tty lockups when it first boots up. The app uses sgtty.h. I tried using termio.h but it's not there. Frankly, I know next to nothing about i/o under Unix systems. The other thing, is this at all related to FIONREAD?
