All is working well but at the end of the program when i close the pipe it seems that gzip doesn't see that the pipe has been closed and so it stay open. I kind of think there must be something with windows<->cygwin EOF but i can't find out what. Is anyone has an idea ? thanks Bertrand -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
