[vwnc] Looking for a text window to read and write

Thomas Gagné-2
I'd like to create a simple (very simple) window that would provide two
streams--one for reading and another for writing. Kinda like
stdin/stdout but in a VW-controlled window.

I'm about to go looking, but if anyone is sitting out there with more
experience in user interfaces than myself (practically anybody) and can
reply faster, please let me know.

First thing comes to mind is an Emergency Evaluator -- it behaves mostly
like the Terminal window.

For ideas look at the EmergencyWindow>>processKeyboardEvent: aKeyboardEvent

Odd.  I've subclassed EmergencyWindow and overridden the methods that do
the dangerous stuff, but am unable to set a single breakpoint or "self
halt" anywhere inside it.  The debugger window only partially displays
and the image becomes locked.

I'm obviously missing something I ought to override...
