Re^4: [challenge] Nested autocompletion -- fixed win32 version

No, No, No, that's horrible :(

Check your load average with that change - it hard loops waiting for a character. My reading of Term::ReadKey says

my $char = ReadKey 0;
[download]

should be used, as this properly sleeps waiting for a character, and will not return undef.

Of course, I have no idea what it does on Win32, since I can't test it.

> No, No, No, that's horrible :( yes `ReadKey -1` on linux consumed almost all my cpu while with `0` cpu usage is minimal. On win32 with `-1` the task manager shows only a `~5%` of cpu, but I suspect other cpu cycles, another `~5%', are consumend inside 'conhost.exe` and somewhere else: infact the overall cpu usage raised around `35%` Unfortunately I'm not in the postion to apply the `win32 definitive fix` :) L* There are no rules, there are no thumbs..

Different issue for me. To display colored text (instead of raw escape codes) on Win32, the following module must also be included: `use Win32::Console::ANSI;` [download] "It's not how hard you work, it's how much you get done."	[reply] [d/l]

Hello roho, what `perl -MWin32 -e "print Win32::GetOSDisplayName(),' ',(join '.',Win32::GetOSVersion())"` prints for you? Infact I read on wikepedia that version 1511 of win10 unexpectedly implemented support for ANSI escape sequences L* There are no rules, there are no thumbs..
