I'm not sure what you mean with respect to redirection and
the blocking/buffering behavior of stdin.  Can you explain
what it is precisely that you're trying to do?  Generally,
at least on Unix-y systems, the buffering and/or blocking
properties of standard input are handled below the stdio
library.  Indeed, if you need unbuffered/non-blocking
semantics for a particular file-like object, stdio may not
be the best abstraction.

I'm looking at your code: I'd definitely recommend running
`rustfmt` to start.
