I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for this. You have no idea how long I've been waiting (okay, now you do: years!), as I never felt comfortable with having two versions of ncurses installed on a single box (base + port). So far it works great. Thank you so much! The only thing I've found, though, is that dialog(1) does not appear to properly handle UTF-8 encoding. Line drawing characters show up as gibberish (alphanumeric characters). I realise dialog isn't part of ncurses, but it does rely on it. We should consider updating dialog to match this change. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
