Because STDIN and STDOUT do not appear to be attached to a terminal, I cann= ot run Active State's ppm program. ppm3-bin.bat checks if (-t STDIN and -t = STDOUT) and dies if the result is false. This is Perl 5.8.0, newly installed. The Problem occurs in both rxvt and the standard console shell. BASH_VERSION=3D'2.05b.0(1)-release' CYGWIN=3D'ntsec tty' Theoretically this is the most recent cygwin version; I did a "reinstall". = Not sure what to look at to prove the version #... if there is an environme= nt variable I don't see it. The folks at ActiveState cannot reproduce this problem; they _can_ run ppm = with the latest version of cygwin bash. Pointers appreciated. What do I need to change, install, uninstall... to ca= use Perl to believe that STDIN and STDOUT are connected to a terminal? -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
