terminal input #142

Hello, is it possible to accept cin input via terminal when running multiple nodes?

Hey, rosmon currently takes control of the keyboard, no application can get data via stdin (it doesn't matter if it is multiple nodes or a single one). I could imagine a feature where you select a node and request that you will be connected directly to the node - with some sort of escape key combination to get back to rosmon. But this is not something I need, so if you need it, please write a PR :) But in my opinion, interactive nodes should be started outside of rosmon.

Thanks for the input. I will look into this!
