If you suspect a problem with the cygwin DLL then you can build a debugging version of the cygwin DLL and debug it using gdb. Most of the console handling is in fhandler_console.cc. The select handling is in select.cc. Look for the string "console" there. Instructions for building the DLL are in the FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_3.html#SEC101 -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
