Re: [foxboro] while...do defunct?

Just had a similar experience while using mk_foxcae on an AW70P on I/A
v.7.1.

As workaround, had to edit following lines from the file cnvt_icc.ksh as
follows:

   echo `{...some iccdrvr.tsk/awk tasks to generate blocknames for a given
compound...}` \
   | while read blk
   do
      {...statements to process block...}
   done

Modifed to:

   # Defined before main compound loop
   BLK_LIST=/tmp/cae_blk.lst
   ...

   echo `{...some iccdrvr.tsk/awk tasks to generate blocknames for a given
compound...}` \
   > $BLK_LIST
   while read blk
   do
      {...statements to process block...}
   done < $BLK_LIST

   ...
   # Clean-up after main compound loop
   rm -f $BLK_LIST

List (or what's left of it),

has anyone noticed, that the MKS Korn Shell behaves, well, a bit "weird" 
on the new I/A 7.0 Windows XP platform?  The following test failed on 
three XP machines I tried:

ls | while read FILE
do
echo $FILE
done

This will print always only _one_ file on XP...On NT it works correctly 
(read: scripts that ran fine on NT don't necessarily work on XP).

Could someone confirm this behavior?

Regards,
Sascha
