"No interrupt"? I see a "HUP" but select() keeps going. That was the way I designed it but apparently that differs from the way Linux works. select() is not restartable like read() or write(). That behavior should be fixed in the next snapshot. If you are seeing something different than this then that is not fixed. cgf -- 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
