From: rcrampton AT armature DOT com (Robin Crampton) Subject: Perl and bash 28 Aug 1998 11:31:23 -0700 Message-ID: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com I'm getting strange behaviour when running YeP Perl from bash. Running this program: #!/usr/local/perl/qub/perl -w print "Your name? "; $name = ; chomp ($name); print "Welcome $name!\n"; The third line doesn't block. I get: Your name? Welcome ! So I got the latest ActivePerl and it does the same. But both work perfectly in a DOS box. Huh?
