The current jconsole has compiled C code that does
fgets/fputs/readline/isatty and etc. This could stay this way as it seems to
work and isn't a source of problems.

But with the new JFE it would be possible to implement all that in J with cd
calls. That would mean that jconsole would become a dead simple binary that
had no host dependent code or any calls to host services. jconsole would
become je and would just load the JE shared library and with a suitable
starting script would provide a console front end as defined by a J
programmer.
