The problem is that Debian/stable still provides ncurses 5.4. So, there must be a fix for Debian. Also, concerning Mac OS X, though I have ncurses 5.5 installed (via MacPorts), the problem is that several programs are written for curses (instead of ncurses), and ncurses 5.5 doesn't provide compatibility links. I've already reported a few bugs for MacPorts and written a few fixes, e.g. http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/11157 > Also note (as you already did) that there's a known workaround (use the > terminal description that uses the single-character ^N and ^O rather than > \E(B, etc. But this time, these characters break "less"! http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=399848 And I don't know if this is related to changes in ncurses: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=403612 -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
