sorry, but you're taking a totally wrong approach. what you'd want to do would be a terminal application, as you'd really want more than stdin/stdout for bash or something similar. see the terminfo documentation to learn more about this, and please rethink your strategy, as you'd run into problems very soon, and might start reinventing the wheel .. by the way, there seems to be a project for a dfb terminal in the works, but I'm not the one who should elaborate on this and the issues (still) involved ..
