Using CCSv4's console for interactive input?

CCS: 4.0.2.01003

Target: C6747 (DSP portion of DA830 on Spectrum Digital DSKDA830)

I'd like to use CCSv4's console to do interactive command line input with the DSP when debugging (Host to target and target to host IO).

xdc.runtime.System only provides print items (Target to Host),and CIO functions such as getchar() appear to block the whole system while waiting for input.

Ideally, I'd like to have a task that would block waiting for input from the console. Additionally, the ability to receive characters without waiting for a newline to be typed is preferred. Is there any way to do this without using a UART?

Thank you
