The gist of the matter is that when I run programs in the xemacs shell, nothing seems to be printed until the program completes. For example, when I run the following simple program that takes an input and print it, it runs as expected in the shell command window, but when I run in the emacs shell, it doesn't print anything (except what I type) until the program is finished. Running on windows, xemacs 21.4 patch 13. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. temp.pl #!/usr/bin/perl print "How old are you?\n"; $age = <>; print "WOW! You are $age years old!\n"; Run inside emacs shell, the >> indicates what I type >>perl temp.pl >>10 <------ waiting for input, hasn't printed 'how old are you' yet How old are you? <------- prints the lot, including what should appear before the input was given WOW! You are 10 years old!
