I don't see any console programs on the BLODA. Shouldn't it include programs that break under Cygwin due to things like the change from Windows console to mintty, or the pty (?) work that improves Linux/POSIX semantics?
Generally speaking, BLODA is a term used here to apply to apps that, when run, interfere with the proper operation of Cygwin apps (things like virus scanners are the typical problem area, as you know). To me, what you're asking about is the opposite of that - non-Cygwin programs that have problems when run from Cygwin terminals or shells. I suppose we could expand the notion of BLODA to cover these programs as well, though I might personally prefer to describe and list them differently. Obviously, no matter what, a list of programs like the ones you're describing wouldn't be exhaustive, just like the BLODA list isn't today. I know that's not news. I'm just pointing out the obvious. ;-) -- Larry _____________________________________________________________________ A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting annoying in email? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
