Wow I think that is one of the most terrible mail I have ever written! Let me rephrase it. I won t patch ncurses terminfo as that would make the maintenance a huge pain. Ncurses is already not an easy beast to maintain ( should be a bit easier now). The solution is to document how to workaround for the people who dislike the new behaviour Bapt _______________________________________________ dev-commits-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/dev-commits-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "dev-commits-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
