So I love that this meme is detailed enough to have the older guy’s arm partially block his name tag.
…but I’m disappointed that, in spite of such details elsewhere, there’s a misspelt word.
The dichotomy is making my bones itch.
stackoverflow vs posting a meme.
Which one gets the best help?
I can see the appeal of the meme option.
Context:
I have 2 Terminals open, in one is a Python Terminal Chat client running(pt3). I want to sent text from the other terminal(pt2) to the chat. It does write the text to pt3 but pt3 dosent ‘see’ the text.
If i send over “hallo world” it prints on the terminal but dosent show up in chat.
My first thought was, can you flush the buffer?
Just guessing here but could it be because you haven’t set up correctly pt2 as stdin for pt3, try to invoke the command as
script.pyA PTS is a single character device. Writing to it causes output to appear on the terminal buffer, reading from it reads from the input buffer. So, writing to it like you do from a separate shell effectively does the same as calling print() from python which has it as inherited stdio. There is a way to write to a PTS input buffer but it’s not straightforward and works in a completely different way. Use something like tmux instead, or better, sockets.
thank you!
tmux did thr tick for me
Time to dive into the wide world of VTTYs. I believe you’re writing to pts3’s output buffer - writing to its input buffer is a different virtual device / may be a process descriptor, I’m not sure. Look into the history of vttys and it should start to make sense.

In your haste to correct it to “doesn’t” you missed “why does it doesn’t”.
