Thank you. I tried setupterm(NULL, fileno(dirstream), &erret)
erret returned 1, showing success.
Then I assigned rl_instream and rl_outstream to dirstream and ran pCmd =
readline(">").
But the readline still did not echo input characters to the socket the
diagnostic warning was the same.
Of course, I included "curses.h" and "term.h" .
Could you tell me where is my mistake?
Thanks, Alex.
