Thank you for the feedback Fredrik and Matto! Two quick followups:
Fredrik, it appears that the Fink-installed ncurses is GNU ncurses, but I don't know about the shipped-with-OS X ncurses. Nor do I know how to tell which screen is using. Unfortunately strace is beyond my current skill-set. Do you think it might be helpful to start a similar thread on the Vim mailing list? Matto, I actually run xterm under Apple's X11 primarily, however the problem also occurs with Terminal.app. - whiteinge On Wed, 9 Mar 2005 17:03:58 -0700, Seth House <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello! > > I've tried to find this information by searching the list archives and > Google, and have spent some time trying to figure this out for myself > to no avail.
