C# console basic UI with timer

Question

我正在制作一个基本的控制台应用程序（不幸的是，这是必须的），它显示时间和一个非常基本的界面，用户可以在其中输入选项。当他们这样做时，UI 更新相关的新数据以显示并允许进一步输入等等。一直以来，带秒的实时时钟显示在顶部。

我基本上做的是每秒重新绘制整个 UI 并尝试听取用户输入以指导下一次如何绘制 UI。重绘 UI 时如何管理用户输入？有没有更好的方法？

这是整个（非常精简版）程序：

using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Timers;

namespace TimerTest
{
    class Program
    {
        static bool useStartUI = false;
        static string currentInput = "";
        static Timer aTimer = new System.Timers.Timer();
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            aTimer.Elapsed += new ElapsedEventHandler(DrawUI);
            aTimer.Interval = 1000;
            aTimer.Enabled = true;
            Console.ReadLine();
            currentInput = Console.ReadLine();
        }
        static void DrawUI(object source, ElapsedEventArgs e)
        {
            Debug.WriteLine("currentInput = " + currentInput);
            if (currentInput == "A")
            {
                useStartUI = true;
            } else
            {
                useStartUI = false;
            }
            if (!useStartUI)
            {
                DisplayStartUI();
            }
            else
            {
                DisplayCurrentUI();
            }
        }
        private static void DisplayStartUI()
        {
            Console.Clear();
            Console.WriteLine("DisplayStartUI - " +     DateTime.Now.ToString("HH:mm:ss tt"));
            Console.WriteLine("Press 'B' to switch to CurrentUI");
            Console.ReadLine();
            currentInput = Console.ReadLine();
        }
        private static void DisplayCurrentUI()
        {
            Console.Clear();
            Console.WriteLine("DisplayCurrentUI - " +     DateTime.Now.ToString("HH:mm:ss tt"));
            Console.WriteLine("Press 'A' to switch to StartUI");
            Console.ReadLine();
            currentInput = Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}

目前我有 Console.ReadLine(); 计时器被触发后立即，如果我没有然后应用程序打开并立即关闭。其他两个 Console.ReadLine(); 被完全忽略，但正是在这些点上，我希望记录用户输入。

看来我想多了，@elgonzo 为我指出了正确的方向。我现在只在一行上显示计时器，并在需要时清除其他行。我有一个基本的工作示例，我将在其中扩展我的主程序。它似乎完全符合我的需要（显然缺少验证和功能）请评论是否可以改进：

using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Timers;

namespace TimerTest
{
    class Program
    {
        static bool appOpen = true;
        static bool useStartUI = false;
        static string currentInput = "";
        static Timer aTimer = new System.Timers.Timer();
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Main - " + DateTime.Now.ToString("HH:mm:ss tt"));
            aTimer.Elapsed += new ElapsedEventHandler(DrawClock);
            aTimer.Interval = 1000;
            aTimer.Enabled = true;

            while (appOpen) // to keep the application running and give a possible exit - will expand this
            {
                DrawUI();
            }
        }
        #region UI region
        static void DrawClock(object source, ElapsedEventArgs e)
        {
            Console.SetCursorPosition(0, 0);
            Console.WriteLine("DrawClock - " + DateTime.Now.ToString("HH:mm:ss     tt"));
            Console.SetCursorPosition(0, 7);
        }
        static void DrawUI()
        {

            ConsoleKeyInfo keyPressed = Console.ReadKey();
