Repl stopped working after 4.0.0

[saadataz]

simply running ts-node no longer opens REPL terminal
Rolling back to 3.3.0 fixed it

Seems to work for me. Can you specify the platform, node version you are running, and any additional contextual information that might help us figure out your issue?

Possibly the same issue as #480?

I just ran across this issue today as well.

> npm i -g ts-node
+ ts-node@4.02
> ts-node
// No REPL, just returns to the prompt
> npm r -g ts-node
> npm i -g ts-node@3.x
+ ts-node@3.3.0
> ts-node
> // in REPL

> npm --versions

Issue #480 was closed with "Upgrade to latest ts-node" but from what I can tell, 4.0.2 is the latest as of this post. Hope this info helps.

Same Issues

@Nbsaw @nwayve Could you try to test #489 and see if this solves your issue?

[nwayve]

@stelcheck That worked for me.

> npm i -g ts-node@*
+ 4.0.2
> ts-node
// No REPL as expected

Went into /node_modules/ts-node/dist/bin.js and set detached: true to detached: process.platform !== 'win32'

> ts-node
> // REPL!

Awesome find, thank you!
