Interactive prompts should be suppressed when the program is not being run interactively. In other words, when stdin is not a tty. I ran into this problem because I was trying to extend the parted test suite to include jfs and it just hung waiting for an answer to a question that a human does not see since it is being run by a script. Figuring out which mkfs.xxx variants need a magic flag to do the right thing is not very nice. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJTKGQhAAoJEI5FoCIzSKrw0KIH/j5GvCP1UExySw+lx/wI3XwH DKkG0ztNrCHfxxf5Aok/Xb4ghZIxCcL88OozO9xSRb5GgdlxvbzNazY/Rub4irxP kRN0xtAkZqZKuGGB2ej2L3pE9JzyH2m8IOcK7OiMF2wWV5lfMEJzHn7zJgsz0XEu QEfUQ+4cpwdkCeZdy0U88xgnLmbd0+QkblHBDyhyOiZnheiJt5nhu3Nhe0SfpXJI hzJlJWt/UdidIKrbYpLrPs1Zg/hNGF+5yyQnw9zpJZMe3BHvuFuEEJ0BbOS+oD/r W3sUhl9u1oVZZFWuSN9AQwPiJjFHSWXHhgsVvo6h9fiBy0iBxjS8v6Cn4x5hkWo= =0QTd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
