[OSC_dev] No dumpOSC output in pipe in non-interactive terminal

[Torsten Anders]

Dear all,

I would like to use the program dumpOSC for receiving and processing  
OSC packets. However, I would like to use dumpOSC from within some  
programming language via a pipe.

My problem is, that dumpOSC seems to output nothing (at stdout nor  
stderr) when I start it from within my language. Everything works  
fine on a commandline in a terminal, and I can happily redirect  
output to files or via pipes. Also, I verified that I can indeed  
receive the stdout and stderr of other applications within my  
language (e.g., commandline tools like ls or cat work fine, as do  
interpreters like python or the interactive ruby shell irb).

Any idea why I don't receive the dumpOSC output in a non-interactive  
'terminal'? Is there any way around it?

Thank you very much indeed!

Best
Torsten
