[comp.emacs] MicroEmacs and Curses

paul@nessus.UUCP (05/16/87)

I recently brought up MicroEmacs 3.8f on an IBM/AT clone running System V.2.
I have one horrible problem.  Whenever I type a key, the entire screen
flickers a tad.  (No, this is not the horrible CGA flicker of yesteryears).
This is most apparent when I run a background color (i.e. I like white on
blue text).  I use vi, which uses curses to manipulate the screen and
everything works great (no flick).  Has anyone made a real curses interface
(as opposed to just doing tputs' to the tty?)
