Tom -

[butting in..]

Are you using low level (read()) or high level (fread(), gets(), getchar(),
etc.)?

If high level, try setting buffering off, i.e.

  setbuf(stdin,0);

Also - in MSDOS land, they distinguish between text a binary file types (at
least when reading/writing the files)... Try setting your file type variable to
O_BINARY (check your docs)...

Pete
