Hi,
Ok, my bad - it was working on windows console all along but with the
line buffering which confused me. This patch implements echoing the
character for WinHugs. It doesn't buffer lines, but its probably
enough for now.
Thanks
Neil

Under Unix, echoing is left to the OS. The usual OS setting is to echo by characters. I thought plain hugs running in a Windows console window did this too, but haven't checked. It doesn't.
How odd. I just tried plain hugs (both a mingw-compiled version and the VC-compiled one you sent me) from the explorer in NT4 and it worked as I'd hoped it would:
Hugs> getLine >>= print hello "hello"
i.e. it echoed each character as I typed it, and I was able to correct the input with backspace before hitting return. Same for interact.
