Entering data thru Debug

In trying to learn the new P2, I keep running into things that don't work the same, especially in debug. For instance I found it handy to enter data into my program for debugging the P1, using the Parallax Serial Terminal (PST).

pst.str(String(pst#NL))
pst.str(String(pst#NL,"Enter(1) or Retrieve(0) "))
action:= pst.decin

How would one accomplish this with P2 Debug?

    In debug there is currently no way to enter data from keyboard.

    But you can still use something similar to the PST object like jm_fullduplexserial and use the Parallax Serial Terminal.
    Drawback is, that you can't use debug then.

    But things are going to change in future.

    Oh ... and it is easy to attach a USB keyboard.

    So other option would be to use debug for output and a keyboard attached to the P2 as input.

    Just the answer I was looking for, but not quite the one I was hoping for. Looks like I have to come up with a new idea for teaching myself.
