Question

I am calling a csh script that the first thing it does is starts a new group.

I need to be able to see the standard output from the child process that is executed after the fork. I also want the parent process to ‘hang’ unitl the child process is finished.

Here is the script (razor_from_cgwin.sh).

(sort of)

newgrp name source /stuff/morestuff/stuffiwant razor -c thread -f Keil1403 -g lib . -o chmod +x * ./rz_build* > server{me}:./razor_from_cgwin.sh > server{me}: 

What I want is this:

>server{me}:./razor_from_cgwin >(hang) >any output from child forked process >server{me}: 

Razor is the CM I am using on the project I am working on. It is not important to this problem except that i need to start a new group to call it. I am calling the script (./razor_from_cgwin.sh) from a ssh session from CYGWIN 🙂

That seems odd – if this was a Unix system there’s no reason I can think of why you wouldn’t automatically see the output from the child process.
