Piping output causes doas to hang #63

Closed moshiur-raj closed 3 years ago

moshiur-raj commented 3 years ago

Recetly I tried to pipe a nftables output to neovim and noticed that doas hung up. It seems piping anything causes this issue. Try : doas echo hello | nvim

Redirecting the output to a file (eg doas echo hello > newfile) works file though. Is this expected behaviour? This does not happen with sudo.

I am using opendoas 6.8.1 in arch linux.

I don't see a difference with sudo, if the password is prompted and there is a second process messing with the terminal then things are going to be weird visually. In your tests I assume sudo did not prompt for a password.

You're right. Sudo did not prompt me for a password.
