MSYS2 Console Fix

Capsim 64 Bit MSYS2 Announcement

CapsimTMK Installation and User Guides


On MSYS2 to run capsim in interactive mode use winpty:

First grab the application (once):


pacman -Sy winpty

Then always run caspim as follows:


winpty ./capsim -c

That is winpty before capsim.

This is necessary since stdout writes to the console in MSYS2 under Windows may not appear in interactive mode.

winpty takes care of this.

Also sometimes capsim may crash for no good reasone because of buffering on stdout and winpty takes care of this too.
