npm-check -u doesn't work on Windows + Mintty
See original GitHub issueHi! I installed this tool yesterday and so far I’m loving the reports 😄, but I cannot seem to make it work in interactive mode. After I start npm-check -u
I get the “Choose which packages…” screen, but I cannot select anything, pressing space
has no effect, neither the cursor keys, and if I press enter
I get garbled text on top of what it was already on screen.
My specs:
- Windows 7 x64
- npm v3.5.3
- node v5.5.0
- Using the Gitbash terminal that comes with Git for Windows (Mintty)
I don’t have issues with other command line tools. BTW the emojis are not showing, but I think that’s a Windows limitation, isn’t it?
Thanks a lot.

Ooh, this is interesting. I just ran
npm-check -u
because it’s at least a pretty listing of my outdated packages. When it displayed that list (of one outdated package), I spammed the spacebar a bit in frustration, then hit enter, and to my surprise I found that it actually started updating the one package that it had listed - so it looks like npm-check is receiving the keypresses (the spacebar, at least - I can’t confirm arrow keys), but merely fails to update the display.Hopefully that’ll help pin down the issue, whether that’s in npm-check or Inquirer.
I have this issue too.
Works fine in powershell, no special parameters needed
