Subject: Funny IO.select behaviour

I've been debugging my full screen console ruby editor.

Suddenly, for no apparent reason, I'm starting to get

(a) random quits while typing.  espically when pressing "t".

(b) Select:Interrupt while typing.

This didn't used to happen.  The line it is dying at is...

 if select(@in_io],nil,nil,1)

very strange, and frustrating!  This is on linux...

ruby version...

1.8.6 (2007-09-24 patchlevel 111) [i686-linux]

I'm willing to post the whole thing, as long as I don't get too much
abuse for it not being very well coded.  It's a work in progress.
