Re: Outputbox: Cannot see the output immediately



Let me show the way a tool is called:

* the function xsystem() will excute the tool
*  a watch is added by
[code]
    g_io_add_watch( ob->io_channel, G_IO_IN, ( GIOFunc ) io_signal, ob );
[/code]
the function 'io_signal' will read lines from channel and send to outputbox

* add a background task in case there is no output from the tool:
[code]
     ob->pollID = g_timeout_add( 200, ( GSourceFunc ) poll_tool, ob );
[/code]

Regards,
