Does anyone have nn working under 3.1 ? Getting it to compile isn't a problem.
The problem starts when nn trys to write to the screen . Using
the USE_TERMCAP flag causes what look like cursor addressing problems.
Using the USE_TERMINFO flag causes things to go missing when written
to the screen (like the article titles and authors names etc)
Thanks ,
Carl.

Just make sure that the curses (not the termcap emulation library) library is linked in during compile. Anyway, I have tested nn (6.4) with aixterm, IBM 3151, vt100, vt220 terminals... +-----All Views Expressed Are My Own And Are Not Necessarily Shared By------+ +------------------------------My Employer----------------------------------+ + Ronald S.

Never had a problem with the termcap, and ran extremely well under aixterm. Which systerm-dependent include files are you using? ------ INTERNET: sequoia@ucscb.UCSC.EDU Gary M.
