I know there are some portability problems (int - pointer - long) which I am currently investigating. I hope to have them fixed for the next patch (no scheduled date for its release). -- Kim F.

With alot of help from the net yes. 1) tgetstr.o in libcurses is broke in 2.4 so I got an old version ie 1.3 and replaced tgetstr.o. 2) Use the m286 malloc posted recently to comp.sources.misc 3) Patch the sources to level 3 and then use the patches produced by Wietse Z. Venema and posted to this news group. 4) Simplified the definitions of MF and CF in data.h to stop the c compiler generating bad code. ie #define MF(n) (1L<<(n-1)) 5) Took out the !! in the init file which stops you looking at most groups. And it works! But it uses alot of memory! But it saves you alot of time reading the news!
