option pager causes x11 detection fail in cygwin #55

Closed devel-chm closed 8 years ago

devel-chm commented 8 years ago

Apparently, the pager message when the terminfo types are more than one screen full causes detection of the x11 driver to fail. I recently tried again directly from the bash shell prompt (same window) and the x11 detection succeeded. Checking the difference between the environments running directly and under the cpan shell, I noticed that LINES=59 was set under CPAN.

If I did a 'LINES= make test' then tests pass for both cases. This suggests that unsetting LINES when running the gnuplot instance for piping commands may resolve this issue. Setting to a large number like 1000 seems to work as well...

Thanks! I now set LINES to a large number.
