Using my own build from trunk. The problem is that running the following
script:
-- address cmd
"rexx -v | rxqueue"
bitness=0
do while queued()>0
parse pull hint ":" val .
if hint="Addressing Mode" then bitness=val
end
say "bitness:" bitness
will not yield the desired result on Unix (bitness will always remain
set to 0).
However, studying the code you changed I could come up with a variant
that works:
-- address cmd
"rexx -v 2>&1 | rxqueue"
bitness=0
do while queued()>0
parse pull hint ":" val .
if hint="Addressing Mode" then bitness=val
end
say "bitness:" bitness
I.e. redirecting stderr to stdout such that that is piped to rxqueue as
well.
