huh ? In which way are you seeing it not work ? 'wineconsole wcmd' is enough to open a shell
(wcmd.exe, symbolic link to wcmd.exe.so is already installed in c:\windows\system and is in %PATH%)
have you tried to do "wcmd /c wcmd" ? it fills the screen with "C:" or the windows drectory where you are, cannot stop it with ctrl-c !! I will make a report when the backend patch will be applied.
btw, wineconsole wcmd doesn't work you must use wineconsole wcmd.exe.so
(or use the patch from yesterday evening which introduces the --backend wineconsole option)
will try it .
I totally forgot pipes... thanks for poiting it out.
the only way I see is: 1/ in winconsole, redirect 2/stderr to a pipe (if it's a tty fd) 2/ this pipe (writing side) will be inherited by all wineconsole's children (ie the ones using the console as output) 3/ then wineconsole can decide what to do with the pipe's output (for
example if the screen is big enough print that information too...)
but, this may require quite a big of an effort (especially for 3/)
A+
