Hi,

You could use a condition variable (info "(guile) Mutexes and Condition
Variables").

I don’t know.  This happens sometimes with ncurses applications that
fail to reset the terminal state upon exit, or generally applications
that use tcsetattr(3) without the ‘ECHO’ flag (e.g., command line
programs asking for a password).

Thanks,
Ludo’.
