I've been using Curses at a number of different cites on both VAXen and suns. It appears that any application linked with curses core-dumps if the screen is more than 80 col. wide. Has anybody else run into this? Does anybody know what the fix is? The only mention of 80 anywhere in the source code that I can find is in cur_c.c: if (COLS <= 4) COLS = 80; I refuse to believe that this would make the program dump at wider screens. Confused, Simson L. Garfinkel
