Neither do_menu nor do_readln (in src/main/scan.c) call the function InitConsoleGetchar. They need to do this to reset ConsolePrompt. If you use "scan" to read in data from the terminal, then ConsolePrompt is set to "n:" for some integer n and this prompt makes an unwelcome appearance when you use the "menu" or "readline" functions. Incidentally, could we have a "title" argument and a dummy "graphics" argument for menu? This if for S-PLUS compatibility, if I may dare to raise the topic.
