So, in effect, I couold use the curses getchar() and have things echoed to stdout without bothering to type Enter. There may be a matching one-liner to set things back to the way they were upon exiting the curses program. tia, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix Journey Toward the Dawn, E-Book: http://www.thought.org The 7.98a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org
