Use input() and print() at the same time (like in a chat)

问题

I am learning Python, and I have decided to make some practise by coding a mini chat in terminal, with a server and a client. But there is a problem, to make a real chat, the client must be able to type, send and receive messages in the same time like that:

//MESSAGES
>bla bla to send

So messages are scrolling while in the bottom of the shell, there's my input.

I have searched the web how to make that, maybe the multi-threading, no. The input() fonction blocks the process.

If you have an answer to my question, it'll be great! Thanks in advance!

On Unix systems, you might want to check out curses, which is a library designed to do this type of thing. Python has a module for it in the standard library.

There is a good tutorial on using curses in the docs. This also suggests the console module for Windows users.
