I'm using an executable compiled from a FORTRAN program When I run it from a DOS command line, I get prompts and progress updates (an iteration count that rewrites the line without scrolling the screen upward). I get none of this when I invoke the program from a cygwin bash shell. The output that should have been displayed to the user is in fact captured if I run the unix (cygwin) script command, but no guileful tricks I tried made the prompts and progress updates display in real time. I tried the script command options -f and -c OldFortramProgram.exe. I managed to get around the lack of prompts by memorizing the order of the input required of the user, and that allows the program to proceed. The progress updates would be useful, though (long run times).
Thanks for any suggestions. -- 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
