O.K. Folks - I have a simple question.
I am working on my A2000 1meg, 2 drives, (nothing special).
I am using ARP 1.3 since it has come over the net. It is nice - I love it.
Sometimes i play around with CLI, (A)SHELL, Xoper2.2 (very very nice), and
other nice little programs. Today I have discovered something strange.
In ARP's NewShell please enter the following line
type <newcon:200/200/300/40/inp |
type >newcon:0/30/640/40/out1 | type >newcon:0/70/400/40/out2
then click with your mouse in the "inp"-window and enter a text and <RETURN>.
The text appears in the "inp"-window (of course) and in the "out2"-window
but not in the "out1"-window (hmmm).
Ok now type ^c or EOF to end your input. The "inp"-window closes (OK), "out2"
window produces a ***BREAK if ^c and vanishes instantly, but the
"out1"-window is still open (urgh). Nothing can close it (really nothing?).
So here is my questions:
Why allows NewShell redirection with piping after that ???
(UNIX csh do not)
Why do not close the out1-window ???
(it is still alive - says Xoper2.2)
Is this a BUG or a FEATURE of ARP's Shell ???
