Hello,

This is a general VMS "C" language question.
Has anyone experienced the behavior of VAX "C"
where input and output calls do not take affect,
even after calling flush?

I have issued a few calls recently, one for 
gets, another for a gks g_pline call, where the
only way to get the call to work was to enter
it twice!  I am catching all return values.
I no about pointers.

Anybody got any ideas?
