I have a shell driven program that takes a while to terminate. While it 
is possible to flush output from within the C code, the way the program
is written, the output still gets stuck in the shell-script and I can't
figure a way to force the shell to spew it out without the shell-script
terminating. I am not sure how clear I have been. Anyway, help would be
appreciated.
