Is there a known bug in the MSC 6.00A version of VioGetMode?  

I'm trying to use Walter's recent post of PCcurses and sc under OS/2 1.3.
(His port is for OS/2 2.0.)
There are a few changes (and some bugs--no reply from Walter so far) needed,
but a short test program using VioGetMode fails sometimes. 

I have 

static PVIOMODEINFO modeinfo = NULL;
...
modeinfo = (PVIOMODEINFO) malloc(sizeof(VIOMODEINFO));
VioGetMode(modeinfo,0);

The row and col in modeinfo are sometimes wrong.
I'm using the large-memory model. All I needed for sc was the screen rows
and columns. If I hard-code the screensize, sc works under OS/2 1.3 (in
preliminary tests).

Anyone have problems with VioGetMode?


Remarks on sc, spreadsheet calc 6.21, and PCcurses. Walter modified 
curses to use 'vscan'. His use of 'vscan' indicates that it should be
'vsscan' (unless Watcom C is different than gcc). I wrote a hack to handle
vscan under MSC. The "save before exit" feature needs a different filename
under OS/2 (easy to fix).
