csv-play on windows has a new failure

[junderwood]

csv-play always worked on windows in the simple pipe in/out mode.
This is a new mode of failure:

cat t-3d-ui-3d.bin | csv-from-bin t,3d,ui,3d | head
(works fine...)

cat t-3d-ui-3d.bin | csv-play --binary=t,3d,ui,3d | csv-from-bin t,3d,ui,3d | head
(becomes corrupt very quickly)

I have included the data file on \sequoia\scratch\comma\

sigh... i am almost certain what change broke it (although i don't know the exact mechanism), but debugging on windows may take a while...

have you tried the same pipeline on linux? does it work?

thank you!

@v-do: do you have a windows virtual machine handy? would it be possible for you to try to debug the example above on windows? it is not very urgent, but would be very good to fix.

just tested on my debian vbox... worked fine. So it's a windows thing.

Hmm... this was just reported to me again. I went through a whole loop to report it as a new bug, forgetting it was already here.
Hence.... +1.

It may (or may not) be easy to fix, given a windows box available.

With all the hassle with windows, with the available workforce, I am afraid this one may sit on the backburner for a while...
