Does it have any effect on <input>?


It shouldn't. When input, using the default input handler, reads from standard in, that will get routed around the place a bit but eventually arrives back at the real standard input stream. The inputstring attribute of exec should be able to use any input read in with <input>.



Maybe we can use the InputHandler framework here as well?  I.e. if
anybody has an input handler that reads from a JTextArea it could be
used here?

Perhaps possible - I didn't really look at doing that. There is a bit of a mismatch, though. Inputhandler is prompt driven which doesn't really match the separated input and output streams used in exec.



Sorry, I'll really have to look at the code first.
