Hi Keith,

The #terminal flag would require a source code inspection and
an annotation. Technically a good idea, but from the users
perspective less ideal. IMHO.

3. A solution that notices the timeout and switches somehow the way of
communication into a "raw" mode. Something that may be another way to
handle the "
|I=Entering amforth interactive interpreter
|E=Input character not echoed.
"
situation too. Perhaps with a prompt change too.

Better ideas welcome ;)
