Description Jason Stumpf 2007-01-09 04:04:15 UTC

If urxvt is run with a -e option which has a pipe (|) in it, it doesn't work.  I tried taking the exact command that didn't work in urxvt and changing the urxvt to xterm and it worked great.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.echo 'hello' > test
2.urxvt -e 'cat test | less'
3.

Actual Results:  
A urxvt window appeared and before doing anything, closed itself, or crashed, not sure which.

Expected Results:  
A urxvt window should have stayed open with the word 'hello' displayed in it in less.

This same bug happens with urxvtc.

Try w/ rxvt-unicode-8.1 please.

Comment 2 Togge 2007-01-09 10:48:01 UTC

Same behavior.
First run the urxvt window appeard shortly before closing. Further tries fail to show window.
