        With considerable difficulty, I think. It's fine to write to StdLog, but how do you read from it? How do you read ANYTHING from the keyboard?


        We've talked about this before. L505 does have a point, I think, and that is that BB input/output is rather specialized and limited. Certain common operations that many programmers use all the time are extraordinarily difficult (i.e., impossible) with BB. I really think it's a shame.
