I just saw that the manpage for ncurses says to do three things: initscr(); cbreak(); noecho(); That's what it says most programs will probably want if they're doing full screen, because they usualy don't want to have input echoed back to the console... Heh, I learn something new every day. I guess I can go home and sleep till tomorrow now that today's lesson is out of the way. k ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If God didn't mean for us to juggle, tennis balls wouldn't come three to a can. -- Unknown (http://slashdot.org) mortis@voicenet.com http://www.voicenet.com/~mortis ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ On Sun, 9 Jan 2000, Sandy wrote: > dear members: > > thank you all for your kind suggestions. i really appreciate all of your > help. > enclosed is the sample program that works. > > very truly, > sandy > > /routine to shut off line buffering on the screen > #include<curses.h> > // the curses.h file has the stdio.h file include > #include<termios.h> > #include<unistd.h> > int main() > { > //FILE *out; > size_t zero_t=0; > int ch; > // the next two statements are written up in ncurses & cbreak man pages > initscr(); > cbreak(); > > while ((ch=getch()) != '\n') > { > > putc(ch,stderr); > } > // this returns the screen to normal ftn > endwin(); > return 0; > } > > > > > _______________________________________________ > PLUG maillist - PLUG@lists.nothinbut.net > http://lists.nothinbut.net/mail/listinfo/plug > _______________________________________________ PLUG maillist - PLUG@lists.nothinbut.net http://lists.nothinbut.net/mail/listinfo/plug
