Like your world is not the whole world too! All Europe runs Flexnets,
or dumb Baycom-node software, and both has prompts. Imagine about
Linux system with shell without prompt. Or even DOS or OS/2 command
line without prompt. After some time working with this should
make you crazy :-)

Yes, I'm going to modify the code, to have some prompt.
I know that are alternatives for node like TNN 1.74,
but TNN is incompatible with ax25 used in kernel. If I
get node which is compatible with flexnet and runs under
ax25d, then I stop use linux-node which is probably only
node settable in ax25d.conf.
