I don't see any other code that currently relies on ncurses. But since you were hesitant to remove the dependancy, I broke down and finally learned how ncurses and terminfo works. So, there is better patch at http://trac.gnugo.org/gnugo/attachment/ticket/152/fix-terminfo.patch And after finally studying it, ncurses probably is the way to go, since it will work on odd terminals that use strange color codes. _______________________________________________ gnugo-devel mailing list gnugo-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnugo-devel
