- Before I post . . .
-
- I have Minicom working just great. It only has ONE problem on my system.
-
- For up/downloads, it opens a window to show status. It's opening a pipe
- to capture the output of the transfer command, and sending that to the
- input of the window...
-
- Are pipes buffered? Because output to that window is only updated after
- quite some stuff has flowed through, making it useless as a status box.
-
- If this doesn't bother anyone, I'll put it up somewhere.
