HI Ya'll! I need to turn the cursor off (make it invisible) in my program. I am using curses and tried using leaveok() but didn't help. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I tried to find out the escape sequence for the vi = .. (entry in termcap) for making the cursor invisible but could find one. I could not find the same in the terminal manual for VT220. I am using ULTRIX(tm) which is 4.3 BSD. Thanx. - RAM KUMAR ramkuma@a.cs.okstate.edu -- ***************************************************************** * * * Ram Kumar - ramkuma@d.cs.okstate.edu * * *

[...] Try to use <ESC>[?25l to make cursor invisible and <ESC>[?25h to enable cursor again. Hope it works for your terminal. -- *-----------------------------------------------------------------------------* Thomas Omerzu UUCP: ...!unido!quando!omerzu / omerzu@quando.uucp Quantum GmbH, Bitnet: UNIDO!quando!omerzu / omerzu%quando@UNIDO(.bitnet) Dortmund, Germany Internet: omerzu@quando.quantum.de
