In case the write was to stderr/stdout, and it just so happened to fail because of an issue like "the pty is gone", VERIFY() would end up calling vout() back to write to stderr, which would then fail forever until the stack is exhausted. "Fixes" the issue where the Shell would crash in horrible ways when the terminal is closed. |

SerenityOS
Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.
About
SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.
Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like.
I (Andreas) regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on my YouTube channel.
Sometimes I write about the system on my github.io blog.
I'm also on Patreon and GitHub Sponsors if you would like to show some support that way.
