Christian,
It Works perfectly for both! Can you explain why that commands
works and not only "wmic cpu list full"?
The wmic.exe file imports console functions like SetConsoleMode() and
SetConsoleScreenBufferSize() from kernel32.dll. I presume that wmic
performs some direct console I/O which conflicts with Cygwin's tty. This
can be prevented by redirecting the standard input. But then wmic
creates an empty file 'TempWmicBatchFile.bat' in current directory ...
The following works for me in Cygwin console (notty, tty, and mintty) on
XP:
$ echo '' | wmic cpu list full
or
$ wmic cpu list full </dev/null
So, are some of you guys using a DOS console, and some using
rxvt/xterm/whatever gui console?
There is no difference in this case. Wmic hangs in Windows console,
mintty, rxvt and xterm if run without redirection from a Cygwin shell.
