efs-hang on NT

Hi efs-folks ! I've reported a reproducible hang (for me, at least) on NT4SP4, with the current efs-package for XEmacs 21. That is, efs-version 1.18/1.57. First hint: the ftp-client is "eingedeutscht", i.e. it answer for example "Hash EIN (2048 Bytes/sec)" instead of using "hash mark". Fiddling with efs-hash-mask-msgs didn't help. JV> Does this patch help (It basically trying to push the NT ftp JV> client into flushing the buffer the same way as at other points). No, unfortunately it doesn't. But I can show where it hangs - in the same function, i.e. efs-raw-send-command in (prog1 (if nowait nil ;; hang around for command to complete ;; Some clients die after the command is sent, if the server ;; times out. Don't wait on dead processes. (efs-kbd-quit-protect proc (while (and efs-process-busy ;; Need to recheck nowait, since it may get reset ;; in a cont. (null efs-process-nowait) (memq (process-status proc) '(run open))) (accept-process-output proc))) It jumps to the else part and then happily loops. Introducing a time-out to accept-process-output didn't change that. I'm certainly at a loss, Holger -- --- http://www.coling.uni-freiburg.de/~schauer/ --- "In Scheme, as in C, every programmer has to be a genius, but often comes out a fool because he is so far from competent at every task required." -- Erik Naggum in comp.lang.lisp
