Surely Text_IO is not scanning the keyboard. Or it should not. The OS does. Text_IO should just get the character from the OS. Without assumptions that it is this or that key.

For me the ARM is very clear:

"Reads the next character, either control or graphic, from the specified File or the default input file. " A.10.7 (10/3)

That is why I dont understand the issue.

My guess was that redirection on the Windows command line was the culprit (and it does interfere a bit, but not enough to explain all).

Thanks.
