You get multiple levels of output buffering: 1) C does its own output buffering. Take a look at man setvbuf(1) 2) The operating system buffer which is entirely different than the C buffer You need to disable both of them to get fully unbuffered output -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
