Apparently the ptys are opened in raw mode and do not interpret the control characters but pass them down the pipe to AXIOMsys. However the (read) from axiom simply gets the cntrl-D and tries to parse it. I'm not really sure how this should be handled. Clearly you don't want sman to open up a pty that interprets control characters. Nor do you want lisp's (read) to interpret control characters. Which raises the question.... why are you trying to pass cntrl-D and what do you expect to happen? And why do you expect this? t -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
