The "cleartool" application (part of ClearCase) will often present question prompts in normal operation, to confirm certain operations. When I execute these commands in a DOS box, it works fine. However, when I execute this in a Bash shell in RXVT, at the point where it would issue the prompt, it just sits there doing nothing. If I then press Return, it immediately emits the prompt message, and then takes that as my response. If instead of pressing Return, I first type an expected response and press Return, then it takes that as my response, which is an acceptable workaround (if I know what the prompt says). If this Bash shell is inside XEmacs, however, when I press Return at the invisible prompt, it takes my response and then kills the Bash shell it's running in. :( Is there a strategy I can use to get it to work the same way it does in a DOS box, printing the entire prompt message, and exiting normally? -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
