Hello!
If I use timeout with read shell command, next read command use it too.
See my test shell program:
#!/bin/bash
read -rest 2
od -An -tx1 <<<"${REPLY}"
read -ren2 -p $'---\nIs this OK? [y/N] '
echo
od -An -tx1 <<<"${REPLY}"
[ x"${REPLY,}" != x'y' ] && exit 1
my enclosed patch.
Have a nice day!
Csaba
