hi thomas,
if i'm reading this correctly, the funcs ARE defined/available, so the lib WAS config'd with widec support. true?
That sounds right.
ok
Actually that would have been --with-screen=ncursesw rather than --enable-widec (that option applies to ncurses). But the --with-screen option is used mainly to tell it how to find the header files for the given flavor of ncurses/ncursesw.
It seems that someone's packaged ncursesw as libncurses (which works, but means that you can't have both libraries). Since ncursesw stores more data per cell, it will be slower (I prefer being able to make the choice).
yes - the "(wide)" says that as far as lynx is concerned, it's there.
fair nuf ... then:
./configure \ ... --- --with-screen=ncurses \ +++ --with-screen=ncursesw \ --- --enable-widec ...
configure fails w/ checking for initscr in -lncursesw... no checking for -lncursesw in /usr/local/lib... no checking for -lncursesw in /usr/lib... no configure: error: Cannot link ncursesw library
argh. nothin's simple ... ;-S
ok, so to test, i'll need to build ncurses ... "pls pardon my verbosity"
i've DL'd the src, applied the rollup (0319) and April patches successfully and am abt to configure.
wondering what the 'typical' config options for Darwin ncurses are, I DL'ed to compare from Darwin8 srces @ http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.4/
% wget http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/tarballs/other/ncurses-15.tar.gz
% gnutar zxvf ncurses-15.tar.gz
% cd /usr/ports/ncurses/ncurses-15
% grep configure Makefile Configure = mkdir -p $(OBJROOT);cd $(OBJROOT); $(SRCROOT)/ncurses/configure --prefix=/usr --with-shared --without-debug --enable-termcap --without-cxx-binding --without-cxx --enable-widec --with-abi-version=5.4
so, let's try:
./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local/ncurses \ --with-shared \ --with-normal \ --without-debug \ --enable-termcap \ --enable-widec \ --without-cxx \ --without-cxx-binding \ --with-abi-version=5.4
configure looks OK w/:

ok, the libncursesW* is there
^
close enuf for gov't work ...next, 1st modify path (just in case ...) set path = (/usr/local/ncurses/bin $path)
and, now, let's try lynx2-8-6 again ...
configure w/:
./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local \ --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl \ --with-zlib \ --with-screen=ncursesw --with-curses-dir=/usr/local/ncurses \ --enable-color-style \ --enable-default-colors \ --enable-change-exec \ --enable-cgi-links \ --enable-exec-links \ --enable-exec-scripts \ --disable-nls \ --enable-ipv6
is OK, as are make/make install.
the binary looks right,

AND, as a bonus, the silly thing works, too ;-)
yay!, i think ...
There are some sites that you can connect to test (I recall finding that when I was testing a while back). The ones I bookmarked don't seem to be reliable though.
1st, i know diddly-squat abt ipv6 ...
that said (while i'm unsuccessfully googling about) how exactly do i do this if my ISP's network (speakeasy.net) does NOT (iiuc) currently route IPv6?
cheers,
richard
