I just installed the nickle-2.67-1 package according to the
instructions at http://sourceware.org/cygwinports/. The
installation went fine and I can run it with the -e flag like this:
nickle -e 2+3
and from stdin like this:
echo 2+3 | nickle
but when I try to run it interactively like this:
nickle
it prints a single > prompt and hangs. This happens whether I run
it in a Cygwin console or in an rxvt window.
When run in a Cygwin console, it just hangs without appearing to use
any CPU. I can't kill it with ^C but I can close the console
window.
When run in an rxvt window, it hangs in the same manner, but when I
try to close the rxvt window, it won't close and CPU usage goes to
100%. I have to kill rxvt with the Windows Task Manager.
A similar problem was reported to the Nickle mailing list on July
25, 2005,
(http://nickle.org/pipermail/nickle/2005-July/000406.html). In that
case, the user didn't even get a prompt. I didn't find any
resolution of the issue.
I can attach the output of "cygcheck -srv" if it would help, but
it's 36 kB.
Regards,
Gary
