Works as expected on Linux, going to investigate it on Windows. May be the problem with \n.
Works for me on Windows too. To understand the cause of this problem, please 1) Run Netbeans with "-J-Dnativeexecution.support.logger.level=100". Try to run jshell, and provide a message log. 2) Run "vi" from Terminal. Does it work as expected? Thanks
I checked on a second pc, win7 version 6.1 No out put for jshell (current build 107) Other programs like vi print to screen as expected ide started with -J-Dnativeexecution.support.logger.level=100

I searche dthe log for "jshell": There is an entry generated whilst sending the last comment of this issue, but no entry for the jshell invocation....
The issue is reproducible on my machine now. What I've figured out so far: this looks more like a cygwin issue. Please run a cygwin terminal (it's in C:\cygwin64) and try the steps you described in Comment #1. Do you get any output for "/?" ?
Same behaviour for jshell from build #120
