I was trying to help by cutting down on places to look. If you want to investigate tty code, feel free. >now please correct me if i'm wrong, but when it works with 1.1.18 and >not with 1.3.x and the only constant that changes is cygwin, wouldn't >every fan of logic scream out loud then: it's cygwin! :) Logic fan, are you? Did you see anything in the strace log that indicated cygwin was operating improperly? "It's slower" is not necessarily a sign of improper behavior. There are often reasons for decreasing performance, such as "improving compliance". If a program is so finely tuned that it falls over when timings change then it is possible that it is just not going to work. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
