Under Windows you have to hit <ENTER> to complete the input. Windows
does not support character by character entry/processing without
installing ncurses. Even then i'm not positive but I think so. Thing is
you'll have to compile it yourself. I have found it works out of the box
under Linux but have not done much testing.
