Brian G reported a new bug.

Summary
-------

Shell with As Input output does not recieve data in some cases

Type             : Bug
Priority         : High
Gambas version   : Master
Product          : Language


Description
-----------

It looks like programs that check for console, or expect console are not received by the shell command.

The app attached try Shell and exec of the ssh command, the shell version does not receive any data from the remote host

The exec method does...

   Shell "ssh localhost" for input output as "myshell"           ' this does not receive any input - logon prompt

   exec  ["ssh", "localhost"] for input output as "myshell"      ' this does get the remote logon prompt

They both work fine if using authentication keys bypassing the logon prompt.
