OK, now I'm cautiously optimistic. Things look like they are working
correctly, though I still have a ways to go before I am convinced of the
fact.

This causes me to have a question. As I have been working through
this problem I used a debug level of 255 and interact() to see what was
going on. Using interact, the Enter key on my computer sends a \012. Using
\n sends the same thing. interact() would die in the same spot as my script
did, so is there something weird going on with this particular terminal?
