[Caml-list] pipe puzzle

[Caml-list] pipe puzzle

[Issac Trotts]

I have an alias (called 'o' because I use it often) that does
the following:

   (echo "let print s = print_string s; print_newline();;"; ledit) | ocaml

It works just fine except that when I suspend the process, and then
type

    fg

it tells me

  Signal 44

and kills off my OCaml session.  Can someone here shed some light
on this?

ledit don't like suspends... the signal kill it, and
then SIGPIPE is sent to Ocaml...

man ledit says :
KNOWN BUGS
       It  is  not  possible  to suspend ledit (using the suspend
       command, usually ctrl-z).

You're right.  Even ledit-1.11, which can handle suspend, cannot
handle (echo "let x=1;;"; ledit) | ocaml.  So now I simply use ledit ocaml
with ledit 1.11 and momentarily forget my wish to have a few commands
(not inside a module) that always run on startup.

You can put these commands into .ocamlinit (see docs about the
toplevel system).

Thanks for the hint.  In the source for the toplevel, it says

  if Sys.file_exists ".ocamlinit" then ignore(use_silently ppf ".ocamlinit")

It would be nice if it opened ~/.ocamlinit but it's no big deal because the
alias can just be

  alias o='cp ~/.ocamlinit .ocamlinit; ledit ocaml'

So, as usual, OCaml can do what I want.

I've already posted a minimal patch for the toplevel that looks for
~~/.ocamlinit, it's embedded in the debian ocaml package and I suppose is
also in the ocaml bug tracking system.

Cheers.

I think signal is sent by ledit.

Try the following.
(echo "foo bar baz"; ledit) | tail -f

Then suspend it and run the command 'fg'.
