101	read from /dev/tty when stdin isn't a terminal	judah		"Darcs apply doesn't work when reading from a file with interactive mode:
 {{{darcs apply -i < foo.dpatch}}}
In that case, Haskeline should read user input from stdin, like `less`.

Darcs ticket and email thread:

There's two possible ways to do this:
  - Query an environmental flag (e.g. HASKELINE_FORCE_TTY).
  - Add a parameter to one of Haskeline's functions. 

We need to figure out the Darcs use cases in order to decide which way is better."	enhancement	closed	minor	0.6.3	0.6	fixed
