The buffering for stdout should be LineBuffering if stdout is a terminal and BlockBuffering otherwise. The buffering for stderr should always be NoBuffering. > If for whatever > reason it's not, you can set it to that at the start of your programs > with hSetBuffering stdout NoBuffering I would suggest using an explit hFlush after each putStr rather than disabling buffering altogether, as disabling buffering will result in putStr etc calling write() once per character, which is very inefficient. -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
