I have a shell driven program that takes a while to terminate. While it is possible to flush output from within the C code, the way the program is written, the output still gets stuck in the shell-script and I can't figure a way to force the shell to spew it out without the shell-script terminating. I am not sure how clear I have been. Anyway, help would be appreciated. Asim.

Sh doesn't need flush and the reason my output was not showing was because there was a horrible little bug in the murky depths of my code. I am shamed and humbled. Besides, unix.questions was probably the more appropriate newsgroup anyway. Again sorry for the trouble. Asim.
