Re: Multilineedit refresh only every ~70seconds, why?

Hi, I did test to change my script. Instead of ping localhost I entered 
following:
X=0
while [ true ]
do
       sleep 1
       echo $X
       X=$((X+1))
done

Surprisling it works fine in realtime! O_o Why does it works if a single 
command "ping localhost" doesn't work??? I already did try to run my 
script directly from a console (i mean without my application 
speech2text) , ping works well (it shows output on console in realtime 
as I expected.

I think, maybe it does matters that ping is run once and echo $X every 
second so the signal receivedStdout is sent every second. And with ping 
localhost the signal receivedStdout isn't sent until the 
"StdOut"-buffer(?) is full (this would explain why receivedStdout is 
sent every ~70seconds). Could anyone of you help me, please? This is the 
last f...ing problem, which I should resolve, in order to finish my 
diploma thesis. :(

PS:
With the following script it works well, too:
X=0
while [ true ]
do
        sleep 1
        ping -c 1 localhost
done
