What is the simplest way to read a character without echoing it in
Haskell? I have written a CGI program using Haskell. It behaves a little
funny, which did not happen during my experience in Perl.
In http://pllab.kaist.ac.kr/~khchoi/haskell/mastermind/,
give some digit in the text box and click `Run'. Then look
at the 2nd line, which says "number=xxxx".
