The current combination of a shell and a terminal emulator is
horrible. I've found myself doing stuff like:

exec </dev/tty1 >/dev/tty2 2>/dev/tty1
#optionally stty -echo
while read
do clear
      $REPLY
done

Why in Mímir's name do error messages and output get written to where
my input is echoed?
