It does not work for me, read sits there, waiting for input
and I have to feed it something to get the prompt back,
and it is what I enter that is echoed back. The value emacs
"types" is just seen printed on the terminal.

I should probably forget about this and use write-region to
write the value to a file instead, something is clearly not
100 percent okay in my setup. I am using a pretest emacs
from some week ago, btw.
