Hi,
I believe that the problem is not with the readline function but with the
input buffer or keybord
that is somehow left closed for input during program execution.
The only input can be entered to the buffer while reading the standard input
(e.g. scanf).
I have encountered this problem two weeks ago.
You can try the following code which doesn't calls for readline but also has
the same problem.
main()
{
char string[20];
printf("Please type something whithin 10 seconds from now and watch how
it 'disappear' !")
wait(10);
scanf("%s",string);
printf("You typed: %s",string);
}
Only the charecters entered after the the first 10 secs will be printed.
I really don't know how to solve this problem.
If you have any ideas please feel free to let me know.
By the way, what is Mingw32 ?
