Hi! I'm writing a program which acts as a filter, so stdin and stdout will be redirected most of the time. However, in one case I have to read some input from the keyboard. Well, I have stderr for displaying the prompt, but what file can I read from to get keyboard input in any case? Please don't point me to libraries doing the job, as I'm doing it in ASM. It's a quite simplistic program and I don't want it to grow unnecessarily. Regards, Daniela
