Locking the terminal with a shell script in All Things Unix http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r21069367 en Wed, 11 Nov 2009 07:49:36 EDT Wed, 11 Nov 2009 07:49:36 EDT Re: Locking the terminal with a shell script http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21069387 Steve : 1) Send a SIGSTOP to the first process so it's stopped in place, and when the second program finishes, send SIGCONT to let it pick up where it left off.

2) Why not send the output to a file, so this doesn't arise?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21069387 Sun, 07 Sep 2008 01:12:43 EDT Locking the terminal with a shell script http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21069367 joako : Is there any way to "lock" the terminal output while a shell script runs, so that it will have exclusive access to it? I have two programs running at once, the second writes to the terminal but the first program is interfering with it.
