I use the usertools from cygnus v. 1.8 as in a shell script I use
something like
echo -n "Text"
read var
echo -n "Text2"
read var2
If I type a value for var followed by Enter then the next read-statement
is not correctly executed.
If I type a value for var followed by a "\" then the second
read-statement is correctly executed.
What solutions are there?
