- Hi there, it's me again asking some stupid questions....
-
- Now i'm trying to compile lptalk (1.21 i believe?) to linux.
- (kernel 0.98.5+tcp-patches1-3 (is there more?),gcc2.2.2d7,lib 4.1)
-
- Problems is that it works otherwise just ok, but output is a bit late.
- While i'm connecting a mud (loopback) last line of muds output is
- missing until i write something and press return)
-
- If i remember right, someone had a similar problem with telnet, what was
- the solution to it?
-
- I found out that text in lptalk are outputted with 2 routines:
-
- First outputs lines which contained originally newline with puts().
-
- Second prints 'incomplete' lines with fputs(texts,stdout) and i think that
- this is making problems, it seems that output to stdout doesn't get flushed
- soon enough. (not until theres new stuff printed with first method)
-
- How should i handle this? Is it somekind term setting or do i need to add
- flush or something there?
-
- I also compiled it to ISC unix, and it works there..
