Guys....

I started a go project on windows that leveraged readstring to read command line input. It blocked on Windows. I just ran my code on Linux and the readstring does not block at all. Can someone explain this to me?

Thanks in advance,

Allan

We will be able to help you better if you show us your code and tell
us precisely what you did.

Wow, thanks for responding guys. So I ran my exe on linux without goland and bam the readstring blocked as needed. For some reason the ReadString call is not blocking inside of goland. It seems like a great IDE but I found a weird bug. On the Windows side the ReadString blocks inside of golandon Windows. It just does not work correctly on Linux.
