Cannot input command once in full screen interface

[gloria-ho]

After using the goto command to enter the full screen interface, I'm unable to input commands. I can't escape, so I'm forced to close the terminal I'm running the emulator in.
I'm on macOS (Sonoma 14.4), and I see the same issue in both the mac and VS Code terminals.

When I try to enter a command (d icsf to displace icsf info) and hit the enter key, nothing happens, and the cursor moves back to the beginning of the command line:

When I hit the escape key to try to go back to the zti interface, I get these symbols:

When I hit the delete key to try to delete the symbols, I get these:

From your description and the looks of the screenshot, it looks as if zti is not getting your keyboard input. It looks like it is being intercepted and pretty much echoed back to your screen. Is there anything odd about the way you are starting zti?

zti is being invoked programmatically from another program and that is what is causing the issue. When we run zti by itself, it works as expected.

Here's a rough psuedo-code of what we're doing to cause this:

my_zti = Zti()
ati.set("SESSION", "OPERATOR")
my_zti.cmdloop()

This sequence works fine on my machine but puts Gloria in a state where inputs do not seem to work correctly.

There are various ways that programs can access "the terminal". Zti uses sys.stdin and sys.stdout. The expectation is that those are associated with the controlling terminal. And they are typically file descriptors 0 and 1, respectively. You may want to check that any code that runs before you use Zti isn't manipulated them. If necessary, you can pass in files for stdin/stdout when creating the Zti object.
