[julia-users] capture STDIN character by character, turning off REPL.

[Gustavo Goretkin]

I would like to capture STDIN character by character, without any 
characters going to the REPL. 

Right now if I have

function stdio_producer()
    while true
        c = read(STDIN,Char)
        if c == '\e'
            println("Done")
            break
        else
            print(":"); print(c)
            produce(c)
        end
    end
end

it only captures every other character.

Thanks,
Gustavo
