Well, this seems to be quite a strange problem.
I have written a pgm which does simple operations like a few system calls, open & close files, few couts & cins. It also executes few processes in background, but the pgm exits only after the background proc are complete.
Once this pgm is executed , then whatever i type on shell prompt is not seen on the terminal. The commands get exec, but i can't see the chars that i've typed.
why does this occur?

Pls lemme know,
thanks
kris

Is this when using the system console or via a remote telnet/ssh emulator?

I get it from time to time, the problem lies with my terminal emulator package. (SecureNetterm)
