If you need these handles from the child process use:
InHnd:=GetStdHandle(STD_INPUT_HANDLE);
OutHnd:=GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);
ErrHnd:=GetStdHandle(STD_ERROR_HANDLE);
Thank you, that's what I need.
By the way, it does work in a simple single-process applica-
tion:
Program Test;
uses Windows;
var
hIn: LongWord;
buf: ShortString;
bytesRead: LongWord;
begin
hIn := GetStdHandle(STD_INPUT_HANDLE);
while(true) do begin
ReadFile(hIn, buf[1], 5, bytesRead, nil);
buf[0] := Chr(bytesRead);
write(buf);
end;
end.
It is interesting to note that even this code reads input
only after Enter is pressed.
Look at SetConsoleMode:

You should be able to read single characters if you disable the
ENABLE_LINE_INPUT mode.
