Hello,
Forgive my ignorance. How do I make the cursor reverse video? I wish
to ensure that it is always identifiable. How do I select a different
style?
Thanks,
j.
If I understand you correctly, curs_set() alters the bitmap used for
the cursor, but not its colour. So whether it is 1 or 2, it will
still be invisible when put on a blank painted on a white background.
Is that correct?

Shift TAB does not generate any input event in the X11 variant of
PDCurses. Neither testcurs nor a program see them. xterm and ncurses
has no such problem.
Does anyone know why?
Thanks,

I guess I can answer my question.
xev shows that this particular X11 returns XK_ISO_Left_Tab rather than
what x11.c expects.
Patch attached.
Let me know where to put it if this is not the place.
Thanks,
j.

I've rebuilt the library with ./configure --enable-widec --enable-xim
and testcurs now shows alternate characters correctly.
I've also rebuilt my application with
#define XCURSES
#define PDC_WIDE
#define PDC_XIM
#include
but to no avail. I still get the ascii fallback characters.
My bad. Sorry about the noise.
There is one problem, however. When the cursor is on a character from
the alternate set, the character displayed is the one from the base
character set. For example, if I put the cursor on a vertical bar, I
see x instead. When I move the cursor, the correct chara
What is the purpose of XC_get_line_lock? That is, in which situation
will it protect against anything other than bugs in x11.c?
It is implemented as an unreliable spin lock.
Thanks,

Many modern Linux distributions maintain the 64 bit libraries in
/usr/lib64 to be able to coreside with 32 bit libraries in /usr/lib.
Has this been fixed so that I don't need to create symbolic links to get
around the configuration checks for athena and its prerequisites?
sr/lib64. Note that testing
blindly for this library in addition to /usr/lib does not expose systems
that mix 32 bit and 64 bit libraries.

Question is whether you need to check for the library when the .h file
is there. In the world of packages, one usually
