Hi Folks,

One thing that I've noticed about the interactive Shell is that output from the app to the shell is limited to 1023 characters plus the EOL before the tty that the shell's attached to blocks and will take no further input. Once it blocks, all you can do is close that shell instance and start again. Under Linux, this doesn't occur and tests of sending upwards of 32K of data work properly. I'm in a situation where I really need to transfer some very long strings to the command line tool loaded in the shell, but I can't break the data up into 1023 byte chunks.

Is there a way to extend the size of the attached /dev/tty input queue in RB or via a sysctl call?

True under 2005r1-4 and 2006r1
OS X10.3.9 / 10.4.5

Thanks,

Tim
