The scenario is the following:

1. Parent opens master side of pty.
2. Parent forks.
3. Child opens slave side of pty. With new Ian's algorhytm original 
ttyp->input_handle and output_handle are closed and the new ones are owned 
by child now.
4. WriteFile(ttyp->output_handle,...) in parent's doecho() fails because 
child's handles are unavailable for parent :-(

Ian, do something, please...
