Maybe suffering from buffering ?
Try to set $|=1 .
Just a guess, you didn't really provide much information...

I tried this in the program text.
I also tried this in debug mode.
It didn't really do anything.

Did you try 'reset'? And maybe post the output of 'stty -a' (not sure if that's a Perl's issue, though) | [reply] |

Your stty settings look fine.
perldebug has this:
"ornaments" Affects screen appearance of the command line (see Term::ReadLine). There is currently no way to disable these, which can render some output illegible on some displays, or with some pagers. This is considered a bug.
So maybe you encountered this bug. The doc says something about readline, so maybe try
$ PERLDB_OPTS=Readline=0 perl -d myprogram.pl

Yeah, That didn't work either... I thank you for tring. Maybe there is nothing I can do at this time. Thanks again, Mike
