Hi, I'm new to Linux and these forums, but programmed in C++ on other systems. I discovered several Linux terminal emulators don't render Right to Left languages properly and so as an exercise I writing my own. It based on GtkTextView widget.
Basically is working, but the shell won't issue prompts because it doesn't think my terminal emulator is actually a terminal (isatty returns false)
Where would be the right forum to ask this kind of technical question please

Try moving this to the "Programming / Scripting" forum.
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

Thanks

I found the answer for Linux pseudo-terminals now.
But it won't let me include the link here because I haven't made enough posts yet.
