To: hackers@freebsd.org Date: Tue, 12 Mar 1996 10:24:16 -0500 (EST) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-hackers@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi there folx, I have this problem with running my favorite binary from SCO , which is cscope , under FreeBSD. The thing is source code browser,which I have been using for a few years already. I find it _very useful when 1 want's to take a dive into source code,especially big chunk of it written by some1 else. But , the thing doesn't work a 100% under FreeBSD. It does start, builds cross-reference table and whatever files it needs to work, but behaves _very wierd when I try to control it ( it uses termlib). No matter what I type at the prompts, as soon as I press enter , the chars I typed just dissapear and looks like cscope itself sees none of my input,which makes it pretty much useless. I do have a valid /usr/lib/termlib/*/* file for my TERM type and I beleive SCO entries in /dev/*. Program doesn't complain about no errors - just flushes down the toilet everything I type :(( The same program does work 100% under BSDI 2.1, but I need it on my WS which runs FreeBSD. What could be the problem here ? I tried ^J instead of enter - with same results. Played with stty cs* and stuff - no luck there as well. It does recognize some commands though - for example "?" , shell escape . Rashid
