This bug crops up on +newer versions of Node.js (`0.12+`), truncating terminal output. + +You should be mindful of the side-effects caused by using `set-blocking`: + +* if your module sets blocking to `true`, it will effect other modules + consuming your library. In [yargs](https://github.com/yargs/yargs/blob/master/yargs.js#L653) we only call + `setBlocking(true)` once we already know we are about to call `process.exit(code)`. +* this patch will not apply to subprocesses spawned with `isTTY = true`, this is + the [default `spawn()` behavior](https://nodejs.org/api/child_process.html#child_process_child_process_spawn_command_args_options). + +## License + +ISC |
