Subject: IO.popen puts


Hi,

i want to do a cvs login for a list of cvsrepositories
with IO.popen

the normal login via Windows shell looks like =

Y:\>cvs -d :pserver:username@cvshost:d:/cvsrepos/test login
Logging in to :pserver:username@cvshost:2401:d:/cvsrepos/test
CVS password: ******** 


i tried with =

cvsrepos=%w[test,test1,test2]
cvsrepos.each {|x|
  IO.popen("#{CVSEXE} -d #{CVSROOT}/#{x} login", 'r+') do |pipe|
pipe << "password"
pipe.close_write
puts pipe.read
end
}

but the script hangs with the output
CVS password:

What went wrong ?


Regards, Gilbert
