  The character-at-a-time problem is a tough one. I solved it with the
following implementation:

  buffer = ""
  while ((read() append to buffer) != error)
    while (fragment in buffer)
      hand fragment to interpreter
      remove fragment from buffer
    end
  end

  Essentially, I read data from the socket and append it to a buffer.
Then search the buffer for a full fragment. If I find one remove it from
the buffer and process it as a command. Then try to find another
fragment in the buffer... If there are no more fragments in the buffer,
then try to read() more data from the socket.
