Before,
mt --watch
would take full control of stdin to listen for keyboard commands. This prevented the use of an interactive debugger when a test is being executed.This PR changes the event loop implementation so that control of stdin is relinquished when running tests. This allows an interactive debugger to be used while tests are running.
Specifically:
$stdin.getc
) out of a background thread and into the main event loop.$stdin.getc
blocks until a character is typed.$stdin.getc
and proceed to run the tests.
