Hello,
When using busybox resize feature,
output cannot be redirected because measuring of lines/columns will fail.
For instance:
resize | cat
or:
CMD=`resize`
Symptoms: resize hangs; when pressing any key resize reports 0 as for lines as for columns.
Result: resize may not be usable in a script.
Workaround:
Use stderr instead of stdout for measurement of terminal geometry.
Output is done to stdout as before.
Please find attached a patched source with applied workaround.
Thank you very much.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / With kind regards / You hao de wèn hòu
