Yup.  My way was to spawn a child process -- the parent did the i/o
going one way, while the kid the the i/o going the other way. Worked.
Sloooowwly...

select() (and the Intrinsic HPSELECT) work fine for sockets, but
generally things like telnet clients want to select() on the user's
terminal as well so that it can detect when the user has made
one or more keystrokes.  I think that this is still unsupported.

The traditional workaround is to perform single character reads
to the terminal using no-wait I/O and typeahead, which is less
than satisfactory overall.
