Hello RudiC

Thanks for your response.

Code:
printf "p\nquit\n" | jsmon pf=(profile of my application)

- this time it doesnt "print" the list of servers but continuously run the command. even ctrl+c, q+enter, ctrl+d doesn't stop it.

Code:
echo p | jsmon pf=(profile of my application)

- pretty much does what I wanted, its just that it continuously execute the command and doesnt end it even with ctrl+c, q+enter, ctrl+d.

tried testing a similar command in a test directory
Code:
echo y | rm -i *

and it just remove the 1st file inside the directory. which is confusing when im trying to
Code:
echo p | jsmon pf=(profile of my application)

that runs endlessly. don't know why it keeps on executing "p".

Smilie
