http://scrollz.sourcearchive.com/documentation/2.0/input_8c-source.html

for input maybe this:

/**************************** PATCHED by Flier ******************************/
                                static time_t lastkeypress = 0;

                                if (lastkeypress == 0) lastkeypress = time(NULL);
                                else {
                                    time_t timenow = time(NULL);

                                    if (timenow - lastkeypress > 2) {
                                        /* Probably bad input encoding, ignore bad bytes! */
                                        say("Wrong input sequence, resetting");
                                        input_pos = 0;
                                        input_buffer[0] = '\0';
                                        return;
                                    }
                                }
