Okay. But I still think that Term::ReadLine is to blame in some way. I can't reproduce the original CPANPLUS problem with any of the MSWin32 Perls I have. Sorry.	[reply]

WOW! So I install Term::ReadLine::Perl cpan/debugger still doing the same thing, but I get the added message `stty: standard input: unable to perform all requested operations` [download] so I do a which -a stty `$ which -a stty C:/PROGRA~1/gnuwin32/bin/stty.EXE C:/MinGW/msys/1.0/bin/stty.EXE` [download] So for good measure I do `mv C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin\stty.EXE C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin\stty.EXE.NO mv C:\PROGRA~1\gnuwin32\bin\tty.EXE C:\PROGRA~1\gnuwin32\bin\tty.EXE.N +O mv C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin\tty.EXE C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin\tty.EXE.NO` [download] cpanp/-de42 still don't work, so I do a `cpanp z Term::ReadLine::Perl` to uninstall Term::ReadLine::Perl. After removing Term::ReadLine::Perl, while still under `cpanp z` i try `perl -de42` and it starts working! HUUUH?! So I play around some more, and cpanp/-de42 ONLY start working if I do `cpanp z Something` first Any shell spawned from a shell spawned by `cpanp z` cpanp/-de42 will work I have ruled out any %ENV differences WTFWOW! `cpanp` or `perl -de42` will work only in cmd.exe spawned from `cpanp z CGI` I then restored stty.EXE/tty.EXE to see if it made a difference, and `cpanp z` still only worked after cpanp/-de42 , but calling doskey then cpanp breaks it again If s/tty isn't present, cpanp/-de42 will work after `cpanp z` and calling doskey then cpanp won't break it again All I can say is WTFWOW!

This will break it also, from working cmd.exe spawn a new one, then $ cd /d ...different real directory .. $ FOR /F "usebackq delims=" %I IN (`chdir`) DO title %~dnI && ECHO %cd +% [download] executing `cd /d` alone doesn't break it changing title alone doesn't break it Changing title after changing directory does break it WOW	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I narrowed it down in Re^8: [ERROR] 'Terminal>' does not contain an author part Running from D: drive `cpanp`/`perl -de42` is broken, running from C: drive it works The current drive is the key different s/tty.exe is irrelevant Once again, WOW!	[reply] [d/l] [select]
