Reading Term::ReadKey support for ActiveState Perl and Cygwin

Yes, I've done some more research and experimentation and determined
the lack of STDIN and STOUT in Cygwin makes it impossible to do what I
would like with ActiveState Perl. I don't mind Cygwin Perl at all, but
here we must use the ActiveState implementation (by policy).

Is this situation likely to improve in the future? Could a real
terminal be created for Cygwin complete with STDIN and STDOUT? I
imagine it's a pretty difficult thing to implement...

Thanks for your reply.

Rgds,
Paul
