Max,

I just compiled your code and tested on the console, in an xterm and from a
VT100 emulation telnet client.  It works properly in all three term windows
for me under RH 5.1.  I did have trouble getting it to work at _all_ until
I realized that running it as "test" was actually executing the bash builtin
of the same name.  Running it as "./test" did the trick.
