Hi  
I’m using Juno to code in Julia language. It works fine unless I want to input some data from console.  
for example when I write this code:  
`InputString = readline();`  
It should read a line after that and when I press Enter key it should finish reading. but it does not react to enter key.  
The code works fine In other environments.  
Do you have any thing for me to solve this problem?  
thank you.

Are you using the latest version of Juno (Atom and Julia packages)?

`readline()` works just fine for me there:

That’s not the latest version though: [ANN: JuliaPro 0.6.0.1 released](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/ann-juliapro-0-6-0-1-released/5168).
