Ping!
Note that whatever reason caused jesstess, to name a few,
to drop that loop (and the continue), Charles-Francois posted
a correctly working patch!
I have no idea why such a severe bug could sleep in code which is
executed for each and every input(), but it needs to be fixed!

Do you want a robot test?
I've tested it dozens of times and it still works fine!!
It's idiot-proof!
(And i definitely have no time in my free-time to write an
automated test which fiddles around with timeout values
and such to simulate user input.
To me all of this is mystic.
There are almost 14000 *registered* Python users here!!)
