INT14 waiting for character

Hello,

Attempting to run an old program under dosemu, I and collegues have run afoul of the INT14 emulation, specifically:

These routines are not flawless since it does not wait for a character during receive, and this may confuse some programs.

Is there any hope of getting a version of INT14 that waits for a character? Either by patching the current code, or by using a different IO support library? I think something that did high-level access to the linux port would work fine for us.

If there is some known fix for this, I would love to hear it. If is not, then I could help with improving it; not that I know anything on the topic, but I migght be able to scrounge some help.

(Is Mark Rejhon still involved?)
