We had this problem with our JWindows text window library. (That was a
pre-cursor to Claw.) Our solution to this particular problem was to use none
of the above (we didn't trust the C code much anyway, particularly on SCO.),
and instead we directly intepreted the Termcap structures. That was a mess,
but it worked pretty well on all of the platforms that we tried it on.
(Which included Suns, Alphas, and the Unisaurs.)
These days, its not clear that that would work, but so what? No one in their
right mind used curses back then (late 80's) and I fail to see how that's
changed now.
Randy.
