Kennedy" | Subject: Re: Problem with ARP shell, PIP:, and More | | I haven't noticed this particular problem, but I have noticed that | sending more than a couple kb of stuff through a pipe will generally | crash. I've seen this problem with several combinations of programs, so | it seems to be AShell or pip:, or some interaction between the two. | Anyone else noticed problems when doing this? For instance, | | ls -l | grep | | on a huge directory will crash. or | I ran into this problem a couple of weeks ago when piping the output of an IFF->RGB filter of mine into Compress. When all the dust had settled it turned out that I could NOT get PIP: to work reliably when I was using CONMAN 1.3 with ARP 1.3. I returned to CONMAN 1.1 and all works fine now! This is exceptionally strange since the ARP 1.3 docs specifically state that CONMAN 1.3 is to be used. | Eric Kennedy | ejkst@cisunx.UUCP On another unrelated note, it would have been nice if the FAUG organizers could have posted the meeting date change a month ago, then people who are flying in for DevCON could have booked a different flight. So how about changing the date of the FAUG meeting yet again ... :-) Stephen Vermeulen Author: Express Paint and Spritz Newsletter Editor of AMUC (the AMiga Users of Calgary) SVermeulen % Janus.MtRoyal.AB.CA @ UncaNet.BITnet ...or...
