Re^2: (WIN) Autoflush, Perl, Sleep and Powershell

> but I get the log getting written after sleep completes

yes sorry, I couldn't reproduce that part anymore.

But $|=1 aka autoflush should guaranty that it's written immediately, please try CTRL-c while sleeping and see if there is any output.

My interest is in reading the output of long running scripts in realtime.

FWIW I tried both quotes " and ' for the -E part.

That's what I already do on the reading side. But my problem here is on the writing side. Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply]
