japhb Update: After much old-school debugging (AKA `note`) I've figured out the root cause of the problem that was preventing me from pushing my work for the past couple days. Unfortunately to work around it, I have my choice of various suboptimal fixes. Still working on figuring out what I want to do there. 22:29
(You know when you pull out your copy of APUE and reread the chapter on terminal I/O just to check your assumptions that things have gotten ridiculous.) 22:31
patrickb Ow. 22:33
I guess I should know, but what does APUE stand for?
"Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment"? 22:34
That sounds interesting and scary at the same time... 22:44
japhb That is exactly the one. 22:55
Not so much scary as hella frustrating until I had so much debug data in front of me that the lightbulb finally lit up. 22:56
patrickb I know the feeling. I've been through a few of those. I'm glad that at least the issue is clear! 22:58
