Hmmm... I'm using Windows now, but I wish my application to be
platform independent.

What I'm trying to write is a server on which you can type commands
(like a prompt). So I would have two threads: one for the server
processing (the socket) and another one for the prompt. The problem is
that the socket thread won't write anything on the screen (like a
warning message) if the prompt thread is waiting for a input.

I'm not sure if I made myself clear... but is there any other way I
can do that?

Thank you in advance.
