Hi Asrarahmed,

What's 'fd'?  Where is it defined?

(I have a guess, but I'd rather that you show where fd is being defined 
explicitely.)



If you're still trying to drive DOS applications with popen(), I'd 
strongly encourage you to take a closer look at PExpect: you should be 
able to get it to work with a Cygwin-based environment.

Good luck!
