Redirecting output of winpty to file

[sanguine8082]

I'm calling a python script using winpty; I'd like to do the following:

winpty /path/to/python script.py | tee output.txt

When I try to do this, I receive a message saying "stdout is not a tty". I'm calling this python script from a mintty console. Is there anyway to pipe output from winpty's pipe into an output file that I can read?

I have requirements that prevent me from using Cygwin's Python version. We use a portable version of python that I have to be able to resolve to using a shebang in my script.

This issue reminds me of #93. You might be able to use -Xallow-non-pty for now at least.

(2017-01-30 edit: -Xallow-non-pty was a typo -- the actual option name is -Xallow-non-tty.)

That would be a negative good sir:

winpty -Xallow-non-pty ../io.github.winpython/oss/winpython/python-2.7.10.amd64/python.exe ./test.py
Error: unrecognized option: '-Xallow-non-pty'

Calling from the git for windows MinTTY Git Bash.

Sorry, I meant -Xallow-non-tty. (tty vs pty)

😧

I've been bamboozled!

It works now; thank you for looking into this. I really appreciate it.

Add both '-Xallow-non-tty' and '-Xplain' to prevent ASCII escape characters
