-- I've got a problem using command line redireciton in csh. I'm using Beckmeyer's csh, and the Alcyon compiler/linker. Problem is, I can't get redirection from the commands line to work with my programs. Worse yet, if I just use getchar/putchar, then the output goes nowhere(except to the ST equiv of /dev/null). Anybody got any bright ideas for me??? I've been hacking at this for over a week, and getting nowhere. If I use Cconout, and then redirect output, I get a bus error(2 bombs). Help! I'ld love a code example of something that works in my configuration!!! Peter Barada Xyvision, Inc. (617)-245-4100 UUCP: ...!ihnp4!mirror!beldar!peterb

Peter, Cconout will bomb if you try to use it with redirection.
Replace calls to Cconout with Cconws (gemdos(9)), which prints a
string instead of a character, and you should have no problems...
(No, there isn't any way I know of to redirect a null character...:(
BTW, anyone at Atari know if this nusance is going to be
fixed in the next ROM update?
