Hi all,
I have a c program under linux, while running, it opens a new terminal
windows using a system call. I would like to display messages on both
windows.
But I can't find a way to specify the terminal window I want to write
in.
The program is for chat and I want to keep a terminal window to write
incoming messages, and use the other one for operation like sending
messages or viewing list of nicks in the room....
To start the new window, i use the command:
system("gnome-terminal");
but I really can't see if there is some possible way to write to it,
all my messages keep arriving in the original window.
If there is any way you can help me, I will be very thankful,
Thanks to all of you guys,
Achraf

Hi,
Will the memory allocated by malloc get released when program exits?
I guess it will since when the program exits, the OS will free all the
memory (global, stack, heap) used by this process.
Is it correct?

Hello,
I am working with a client that has an old Linux server with a custom
cbase program. The server has been humming along since 1989, with the
exception of a HDD fail in 1994, which was replaced restored from tape.
The uptime on this beast is like 12 years and counting.
Just this week the last linux terminal was replaced with a new Dell
running XP Pro. The client wants to keep the software but wants the
space where the server fits...

I would like to find out how I can launch an independent Python
program from existing one in a cross-platform way. The result I am
after is that a new terminal window should open (for io independent of
the original script).
The following seems to work correctly under Ubuntu and Windows ... but
I haven't been able to find a way to make it work under Mac OS.

Hi all.
I've installed Bloodshed Dev-C++ on a Windows 2000 SP4 machine. I'm using
MinGW 3.4.2.
I'd like to temporarily disable standard functions to write to stderr, i.e.
for instance redirect stderr to a temporary file (or /dev/null but is there
an equivalent under Windows? Is it "nul:") and then to *restore* the
default stderr so that standard library functions that write to stderr
produce output again.

Hi, I'm trying to learn Python. I using Aquamac an emac

I ask because I was using Visual Studio with C# and, if you're

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
