And what TERM type should > I set to? I compiled correctly ncurses (1.9.9e), without to much modifications, and even compiled programs that use it. However, the thing I had to change was the /etc/termcap file. Basicly the clear didn't work (setting TERM to linux). I changed the cl=\E[H\EJ to cl=\E[H\E2J to make it work. Furthermore I removed all other entries, because curses complained about multiple definitions. Apart from this, it works just fine! Note that you must copy your_cygnus_dir_here/etc/termcap to /etc/termcap > Many thanks! np :) Tone. - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
