I've diagnosed this a bit further and have a workaround for you. It appears that using addstr() with a string with embedded newlines is a piece of the problem. If I modify your example program so that we add each line as a separate string instead of adding them as a single string with embedded newlines, we get the ncurses ERR on resize instead of a segfault: import curses def main(stdscr): y, x = curses.LINES//3, curses.COLS//3 # size is arbitrary box = '\n'.join('+'*x for _ in range(y)) w = stdscr.subwin(y, x+1, y, x) while True: new_box = box[:] w.clear() for offset, line in enumerate(box.splitlines()): w.addstr(offset, 0, line) w.getch() # not required, just avoids a hot loop curses.wrapper(main) I don't see anything in the curses specification that forbids embedded newlines in the string to addstr(), though, so I am still thinking that this is a bug in ncurses. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35924> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
