I see two problems off the top of my head:
eread() is only called once.
done is never set to "true", thus the looping.

einit must be called before estart (it initialises the state for
the other event routines).
on Plan 9, you can use
fprint(2, ...);
to print directly to a file descriptor, instead of
fprintf(stderr, ...
avoiding an old library and the possible need to fflush.

I'm an experienced UNIX programmer who should have made more time
over the last several years to get started writing programs for
use with Plan 9. I'm having a little trouble with writing a program
which I hope will sit at the r.h.s. of a two-process pipeline and draw
a graphical representation of some slowly incoming data, and also
allow the user to manipulate the representation with their mouse.
Perhaps some kind person will offer their advice.
I made a start with the tiny sample program below. I'm compiling
it on a 486 with `8c viewer.c' and loading it with `8l viewer.8',
then testing it with `echo hello | 8.out'. I thought I could use
estart() to get me an `Estdin' event key, but I actually see the
fatal error message `8.out events: bad slave assignment'.
I also have libXg from the UNIX sam distribution. What alterations
would I need to (the corrected version of) the program below in order
to run it under (a modern) UNIX? (My guess is that fcntl() with
O_NONBLOCK is part of the answer, but when I try this I see an
infinite number of copies of my message `debug: Estdin, e.n 0'.)
Any other comments, e.g. on style, would be thankfully received.
