#

what exactly doesn't work about interactive mode for you right now?

#

cause interactive just means that the process eventually blocks when it runs out of stdin to read, and then you enter the input via terminal emulator

#

it's just piping and it should work regardless of whether it's interactive or not

formal python
#

so

#

the problem is

#

let's say I have this command: rm -v -i something

#

the prints

#

are all returned somehow alltogheter

#

and for the interactive part, it doesn't print the message: Do you want to delete x?

#

but if I press 'y'

#

it deletes the file

#

i don't really know how to explain this
