Subspecies

gollark: No, you could do it on both, it would just be... maybe harder?
gollark: Of course, there's a problem with that in that it might print a new message in the middle of you typing one. So you'd need to display the input bit and printing of messages on different parts of the screen, and I am not good at that and don't know how to do it in OC.
gollark: Make one thread do the reading/broadcasting in a loop, make the other thread do the listening-for-modem-messages/printing in a loop.
gollark: Er, no.
gollark: It sounds like you want to run the `read`ing and `print`ing bits in parallel. Maybe look at the thread(s) library? I think that's usable for that sort of thing.
