The window layout looks like | Title | | primary | help | | license | | exit | And on every valid keystroke primary and help need to be refreshed. ncurses is optimized to handle this correctly. However the wborder command on "primary" and "help" for some reason touches "title" and "license" as well - so the doupdate() ncurses functions refreshes them as well. If you could find a way to solve the problem please let know - a patch would be better :-) >Heh -- sorry, I always begin my tests in "stupid user" mode. Thanks for > the patch! No problem - segfaults should be fixed :-) Again - thanks for your comments: I'd like to get this program into tip-top shape so when I get the bsd.port.mk patch I'll just submit a PR and wait for the flames :-) -- Eitan Adler _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
