Hi Andrew,
Out of curiosity, how does that pipe/pty implementation fall short for
eCos? I've been thinking of using it to get a select()-able file
descriptor for inter-thread communication.
Are there improvements that could be made to make it fit into eCos
better? I'd be willing to give it a try. Otherwise I'll just use my
version quietly.
