Use GNU Readline to do CLI input on Linux. Lets you have a command history and edit commands inline. This also opens up tab completion that can be implemented at some point.
Windows users still get the old way of doing input via fgets reading stdin...
I moved some of the world stopping stuff out of the CLI files too and into the main function that creates and destroys it all.
