  Does Sksh use ConMan? One of the conman devices (used to be cnd:, but
I think 1.3c calls it cnn:) does non-blocking type-ahead. Lots of VMS 
users asked for this, and I really like it. Does the real ksh do this?
I may just have to give it a try. Anyway, cnn: allows you to type ahead
whilee the text is scrolling. The text you type will show up the next time
the console is ready to read. However if the program throws the console
into raw mode you lose what you typed.
