Reading the list indicates that screens with size greater than 255 x ??? do exist though. In the case of a screen this large cons.saver would just exit.

I don't understand what you are talking about. cons.saver is used only in linux console and FreeBSD console. There is a check in slang_init() from slint.c that kills MC on startup if the screen size is too large. _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
