Can you invoke tcdialog from the commandline?
This seems to be system dependent. From TeXlive's texconfig: # Some systems have their own dialog. Use it then and do not use # faked TERM and TERMINFO variables when calling that dialog. "Some systems" appears to be defined as BSD and linux. My SGI does indeed use tcdialog. -- George White <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Head of St. Margarets Bay, Nova Scotia
