|    ncurses    |

      Hey Nicholas!               NB> Did you mention something recently about the latest ncurses        NB> acting up?              Yes I did but it really isn't ncurses that is acting up. Rather it is ncurses       apps that use libmenu, libform, etc. that have issues with 6.0. So far it       hasn't really been an issue with me personally but I can see how it would be       extremely annoying to users that thrive on those sorts of things. I am sure       an upgrade of those apps would resolve the issue(s) but in certain cases I       wouldn't hold my breath on that happening.               NB> seem to be displaying odd and/or different from how they were        NB> before I upgraded              Sounds familiar. The only fidonet editors I've tried since upgrading ncurses       has been golded and msged and noticed they don't appreciate 6.0. Back when       6.0 first came out I tried using both 5.9 and 6.0 and that seems to have       satisfied the older apps. I might do that again or just revert back to 5.9 if       push comes to shove which is unlikey.               NB> I remember you saying something about it in the last month or so        NB> but I wasn't 100% sure              Same here but I don't recall exactly what app was at the heart of the       something. Probably golded. I didn't try any of the msged menuing templates       but I am willing to bet there is a problem there as well.              Life is good,       Maurice              ...
