In fact, you don't need to hit enter...
What happens is that the test mainline runs and forks its children.
(It's actually a race, does the mainline end before the children or v.v.?).
The mainline then terminates and the shell (bash) prints a new prompt.
The children run and produce output - after the new prompt.
If you look at the output upwards, you should see a shell prompt sitting
there by itself. Or, you can simply type a command (e.g. "echo
goodbye") then hit enter and that command will run, apparently without a
prompt.

Yes, it is confusing. They were on separate lines when they left my
machine. Maybe I need to learn about the .md format...
