Trade-offs ya know :) > Let me rephrase the question. What I am asking is if *terminfo/curses* was compiled with different compilers? Of course his application program is the same. However if the terminfo/curses source was compiled with a different compiler it may not be as well optimized or compact. Excuse me, I assumed that access to the terminfo/curses source was available. I definitely agree that the curses side of terminfo/curses is unnecessarily complex for my needs and therefore I try to use only the terminfo routines as part of my own generic terminal support package.
