hi everybody,

I did'nt use 'aspell' for a while (which worked fine the last time I did). Now, if I use something like

aspell -c myfile.txt

the interactive aspell screen is correctly initialized and aspell jumps to the first offending word demanding user input (ignore/accept etc.).

the problem: no keyboard input is accepted. the whole thing hangs.

I ktraced the program start. the bottom line (in both senses) is:

21375 aspell   CALL  poll(0xbfffe968,0x1,0x64)
21375 aspell   RET   poll 1

which repeats itself until infinity (more or less...). so I think aspell is running fine, waiting for user input, but for some reason the keystrokes are not reaching aspell anymore.

I uninstalled aspell and reinstalled from source but to no avail.

question: is this actually, for instance, an ncurses problem or what is going on? and the usual question: what can I do?

many thanks

joerg
