Strange; it seems like terminfo isn't looking in the right location for the xterm files. Incidentally, the "dumb" terminal settings may be deficient when you type a line longer than the terminal width. What OS is this? Did you download and install (n)curses manually? Can you use some program to monitor the filesystem (for example, fs_usage on OS X) and see where the program is looking for the terminfo databases? -Judah _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
