Line 8:
::So we are requiring [[User input/Text|console input]] rather than [[User input/Graphical|graphical input]]? That should be clarified, shouldn't it? I know I can do this in Java for graphical input, but for console input I'm not sure. I haven't been able to find a library that does well with console manipulation like this (though I haven't had enough need to look too hard). --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 14:54, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
:::This task is really to demonstrate operational facilities through the use of a keyboard on computers that have a keyboard attached. A solution using only touchscreen widgets would not fulfil this task, unless these widgets also responded to keypresses from an attached keyboard (ie they operate in parallel with the keyboard). We could always create a separate task for obtaining responses through keyboardless touchscreens, if this is required in future. [[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 17:30, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
::::No touchscreens were mentioned. I was asking about console/shell input versus text boxes (like the one I'm typing in now or those in on-screen dialogs). It seems that you will allow graphical input based on that answer as long as the keypresses come from a physical keyboard. Am I correct? --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 17:40, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
:::::Yes. The method of display is not important for this task. [[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 18:26, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
:::::If the language has different keyboard input mechanisms depending on whether this is a console keyboard or not, then it would be good to see both methods demonstrated. [[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 18:34, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

started working on fixing that but don't have time to continue now.
