It is not surprising that it works with ncurses given the same developer works on both lynx and ncurses. > I think there is still an issue with the base libcurses library and, like > Brett, I think it's different than the problem he already solved. > Yes it does sound like a different problem probably another instance of the window terminfo being radically different to xterm/vt100 which is not a bad thing but just that it shows up some bugs that are hidden which was the case with the previous bug I squashed. That one had been there since curses was imported into NetBSD, every other terminal in popular use must use ^J for cud1 which had the side effect of moving the cursor to the beginning of the next line but window has a true cursor down that does not move the cursor to the beginning of the next line. It took me ages to believe that was the issue. I am working on something else at the moment but get to this next. -- Brett Lymn -- Sent from my NetBSD device.
