Date: 12 Mar 1996 15:27:30 GMT Organization: Internet Online Services Lines: 59 Message-ID: <4i4552$qq8@news.ios.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: rk.ios.com X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Hi there folx, I have this problem with running my favorite binary from SCO , which is cscope , under FreeBSD. The thing is source code browser,which I have been using for a few years already. I find it _very useful when 1 want's to take a dive into source code,especially big chunk of it written by some1 else. But , the thing doesn't work a 100% under FreeBSD. It does start, builds cross-reference table and whatever files it needs to work, but behaves _very wierd when I try to control it ( it uses termlib). No matter what I type at the prompts, as soon as I press enter , the chars I typed just dissapear and looks like cscope itself sees none of my input,which makes it pretty much useless. I do have a valid /usr/lib/termlib/*/* file for my TERM type and I beleive SCO entries in /dev/*. Program doesn't complain about no errors - just flushes down the toilet everything I type :(( The same program does work 100% under BSDI 2.1, but I need it on my WS which runs FreeBSD. What could be the problem here ? I tried ^J instead of enter - with same results. Played with stty cs* and stuff - no luck there as well. It does recognize some commands though - for example "?" , shell escape . When I try to "tee" it, I can see some message about IBCS2: 'ioctl' fd=2, typ=106(j), num=5 not implemented Rashid -- ------------------ Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young In the world of magnets and miracles Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary The ringing of the division bell had begun ... -=PF, The Division Bell=-
