I just downloaded full.exe from Cygnus's fttp site. The Win32 version
of bash, works fine with the Watcom executable. The more pipe and the
pg pipe still do not work.
I found something interesting. getch is not an ANSI standard function
even though I have seen it implemented in several different compilers,
(Watcom, Boreland and Microsoft). getch is not implemented in the
Cygnus port of gcc. The leads to another question, is there an ANSI
standard way to tell when a keyboard is hit? Another question, is there
a non-ANSI way, within GCC to tell when the keyboard is hit?
I will post a similar question in comp.lang.c
