If program uses POSIX API, then there should be POSIX behaviour. Meh, I was unclear. What I meant was that the translator can do whatever it wants to the file offset. Aslong as read/write/whatever work as expected.
One way to circumvent this is by declaring that this is socket, not file, so io_seek/lseek returns ESPIPE. But then you loose some useful functionality, it should act as a normal file as much as possible. _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
