Hi

I'm testing an application which prompts for manual input $var = readline(STDIN).

Normally I run those programs inside emacs while developing, but it "hangs" when trying to read from readline.

My workaround so far was to manually start in the console, but there I can't click anymore on error messages to jump to the faulty lines.

Now I resorted to redirect STDIN to a handle with fixed input values, but only if run inside emacs.

But I'm still wondering if there are IDEs allowing to interactively prompt for input...

Cheers Rolf
