Re: Ask for help on running interactive cmd in Mintty!


I run the perl script in mintty.
If I run it in a Windows cmd.exe terminal, that works normally.
The ssh.exe is compiled in the Cygwin by myself.

Any other ideas about it?
What make me confusing is that why it behavious differently if I get
input from STDIN or not.
