[wingide-users] Sending keystrokes to an app being debugged

[Russell Warren]

Ah... I should have mentioned I was using msvcrt.kbhit().  

Does kbhit() fall under the "something like curses" category? :)

If you're calling input() or raw_input() or reading on stdin, 
Wing should redirect that to the Debug I/O tool so you can
enter key strokes there.

However, you may need to use a console if it's not line oriented 
I/O (I'm not sure now) and certainly if you use something like 
curses.
