Hi Daniel, you wrote:

: The 'more' command supplied with Windows95 doesn't work in 'bash'

Same for me under NT, but I just discovered that it works in a DOS box:

tar tvvfz //i/tmp/win32/b17.1/cdksrc.tgz|more

where "i" is NFS mounted.
This is also true for my own cygwin compiled program, although more gets a
bit confused about the output from a system() child process.
Even this works in a DOS window:

set STRACE=1
foo -bar 2>&1|more


Bye, Heribert (dahms AT ifk20 DOT mach DOT uni-karlsruhe DOT de)
