Subject: bug#19643: 24.2; shell mode
Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2015 17:12:31 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <83vbk1htzk.fsf@WILLIAM.i-did-not-set--mail-host-address--so-tickle-me> (raw)
I'm trying to use shell mode. In fact, I'm trying to run a Perl
program in shell mode. I launch the program, and it runs. Input from
a file is read, processed. Output (to STDOUT) is printed to *shell*.
Trouble is I can't read keyboard input (as in <STDIN>). What am I
missing (except a brain)?
Ok, this is Emacs 24.2.1 running on Windows XP.
I downloaded Perl from ActiveState in 2011. Here's a simple Perl
program that demos the problem:
print "Give me a number: ";
chomp ( $Anumber = <STDIN> );
print "Give me another: ";
chomp ( $Bnumber = <STDIN> );
$product = $Anumber * $Bnumber;
print "$Anumber times $Bnumber = $product\n";
It works fine in a DOS window. In emacs shell mode it tells me this
Use of uninitialized value $Anumber in chomp at c:\Perl\ex2-4.pl line 3.
Use of uninitialized value $Bnumber in chomp at c:\Perl\ex2-4.pl line 5.
Use of uninitialized value $Bnumber in multiplication (*) at c:\Perl\ex2-4.pl line 6.
Use of uninitialized value $Anumber in multiplication (*) at c:\Perl\ex2-4.pl line 6.
Use of uninitialized value $Anumber in concatenation (.) or string at c:\Perl\ex2-4.pl line 7.
Use of uninitialized value $Bnumber in concatenation (.) or string at c:\Perl\ex2-4.pl line 7.
Give me a number: Give me another: times = 0
Perl is complaining about uninitialized values before it has even
printed the prompts for them.
