I am trying to run a command using an external tool but the input is not working correctly. The command prompts the user for info and it works on the command line, but when I run the same command on the same file using an external tool it will not accept the users input. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks.

Blaine,

Does your launcher configuration for this tool specify to allocate a
console (on the Common tab)?

Yeah, I made sure to do that. The command prints some output to the console but will not take any input.
