Hi,


ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/developr/win32dk/kb/q137/1/95.txt
"Unpredictable results occur if you use ReadConsole and ReadConsoleInput
together in a Windows 95-based application. Do not mix the two functions
when using a single console."


I made the proposed patch (breaking Microsoft advice, above) against
cygwin-snapshot-20011005-1.

It "works" for me (Win95,UK) -- but I did not get any feedback from the
list.


Blue skies,
ianr
