I said I knew that it wasn't working like POSIX pipes. Now, there's clearly a regression from 1.6->1.7. Before they just weren't working like POSIX pipes, but now they seem to be completely unuseable for synchronisation purposes. > Sorry, I don't have any.

So, are you saying there's a development plan to get there, or not? :-) Achim. -- +<[Q+ Matrix-12 WAVE#46+305 Neuron microQkb Andromeda XTk Blofeld]>+ Wavetables for the Waldorf Blofeld: http://Synth.Stromeko.net/Downloads.html#BlofeldUserWavetables -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
