I'm just going to jump in here and report what I think is an issue I am having with 'putclip.'
For years I've been using a Windows shortcut to execute a simple filter function. It has recently stopped working. This is the 'target' entry for the shortcut: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c "c:\cygwin64\bin\getclip.exe | c:\cygwin64\bin\tr.exe -s '\012\015' ' ' | c:\cygwin64\bin\putclip.exe" This now wedges and is not interruptible with Ctrl-C, but closing the CMD window kills everything. Task Manager shows that putclip is apparently stuck in a loop waiting for something to happen as the counts in "I/O Other" and "I/O Other bytes" keep increasing at a regular rate (should a timeout error be incorporated, perhaps?) I can use Task Manager to generate a Windows dump file, if that helps. I have extensive embedded systems programming experience, but know next to nothing about the internals of Windows or Cygwin. Windows 10. -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
