Here's yet another mc-related curiosum which may or may not be related to the trouble I've had with mc and the subshell. To clarify, Magrat (the Linux box) doesn't have a mouse.
'zgv' is an image viewer based on svgalib. I say 'zgv' in the log-in shell (GNU bash v3.1) on the console. On exit, I get the expected 'Failed to initialize mouse' complaint from svgalib and an immediate prompt. I start mc, move to the album and tap onto an image, invoking zgv. I get the complaint and a prompt. I dive into the subshell (^O) and say 'zgv'. I get the complaint but no immediate prompt. I return to mc and start zgv from the command line. I get neither complaint nor prompt. In the two latter cases, hitting enter, running another command or switching panes (if they point to different directories, thus forcing a cd) will restore the prompt. For what it's worth, zgv-sdl (zgv with SDL as backend instead of svgalib) does not show this behaviour. Weird. I'm sure I compiled SDL to use svgalib for image output. Reynir H.
