Specifically, suppose we are debugging a program which uses curses, and doing the debugging by invoking gdb (M-x gdb) from within emacs. Suppose we give gdb a command like `tty /dev/ttyxx', indicating that the user input/output for the program being debugged will be in another place separate from the gdb commands (e.g. under X windows, that I/O will be in another window). The xx is derived from typing `who am i' in that other place. In this setting, curses seems not to work. I've tried it on three different machines. It works fine if I do the same thing but invoke gdb from the shell instead of from emacs. Any suggestions? Norm
