I'm writing a command line interface which queries a REST server in nodejs.
I read commands from the user using node's readline.question. I send via http.request, (using cujojs, which however,
I don't think is directly implicated, as I've logged the progress of the call through the library to the underlying http.request call).
When a request is sent, it normally is seen by the server. However, occasionally, I can log the call to http.request on the client, but don't see it on the server (written in sailsjs).
One odd feature that makes me believe that the readline module is implicated, is that if I type anything such as a space when the request is hung, then the request is often (but not always) sent.
What is going on, and how do I fix it?
