Dear community,
I communicate with an external program (maxima) using named pipes. If I use a text file to capture the output (maxima > out.txt) i can see the programs answer directly after the input written into the file. But if bypass the output into a named pipe (maxima > pipe) and capture it using cat (cat < pipe) I get the hole output not until the external program is closed.
It would be very nice if someone of you can tell me how I can realize a dialog with the external program using pipes.
best regards and thanks in advance
