Actually, the above is true but assumes that you're running R's REPL and not your own R_ReadConsole (it will work even in your ReadConsole but unix handlers are not run in that case so only some events will work).

That is true, too, but even after R_ProcessEvenrts refactorization the handlers are still-unix specific so I stand corrected and you still have to run handlers manually (note that you don't need PolledEvents anymore since they are part of the handlers).

Cheers,
