There are two immediate problems: 1) It doesn't seem to handle Stop properly. It redraws the screen but never pops back to the C-shell. The "tstp" routine seems quite different from what's in the 4.2bsd distributed "curses"... 2) The resulting "mille" program is painfully, agonizingly, horribly slow compared to what's in /usr/games. What on Earth is it *doing*? This doesn't bode well. Mike
