Thanks for the investigative work!
Using the terminal echo isn't really a solution, maybe it doesn't fail as
often but it cannot work all the time. The terminal echo can and will
occasionally (rarely) be interleaved with the stdout.
Did I mention that I hate pexpect ;-)
I would be happy to reduce the number of pexpect interfaces by 1 by
removing that interface to mwrank. It is redundant since we have a
library interface (and "sage -mwrank" if you really want to use it
like that).
How many others are there?
Well, at least
* GAP -> now libGAP
* Singular -> libs/singular
* Maxima (via ECL library)
* PARI[/GP] (not really used via pexpect I think)
* Lcalc?
R isn't used in Sage library code AFAIK.
Not sure whether the library interfaces offer the full functionality [yet].
I'm all in favour of removing calls through the pexpect interface from
ordinary Sage library code.
