Support piped scripts #31

Closed ThaDaVos closed 2 weeks ago

ThaDaVos commented 3 weeks ago

Description

Currently when a script is piped to bash, the read calls will see this script as input - one way to fix this is appending </dev/tty to the calls and getting it to work again - I was curious if the library could support this itself, so one does not have to append </dev/tty to each command

Or at least add a note about it in the docs that it's needed (maybe I've read over it though)

Hey, sounds like a good idea to me :)

For Mac and Linux, that should work just fine. Not 100% sure about Windows, though, so I will have to verify this first. Maybe (as usual) Windows requires special treatment here :)

ThaDaVos commented 3 weeks ago

Yeah Windows always needs special treatment in this cases - but luckily Powershell7 is coming a long way - still didn't know this toolkit worked on Windows - I am using it inside WSL2 though without issues

Tested with Git Bash running bash 4.4.23, /dev/tty & read works like a charm. WSL should be fine as it's basically Ubuntu.
