On SCO Xenix 286, at patchlevel 5, what used to be a nuisance is now a real problem: It used to be that the sources had to be hacked slightly so that the "delay" attempts didn't leave sh*t on the screen, but now the code has to be hacked (in the same manner) to avoid the code _core dumping_ whenever the delay routine is called (typically when anything is thrown or kicked across a room). In termcap.c in delay_output() there needs to be a special case for #ifdef M_XENIX /* do nothing */ rather than some kind of bogus attempt to waste time. -- Jay Libove Internet: libove@andrew.cmu.edu 5731 Centre Avenue, Apt 3 BITNET: libove@drycas Pittsburgh, PA 15206 UUCP: uunet!gateway.sei.cmu.edu!libove!root (412) 362-8983 UUCP: psuvax1!pitt!darth!libove!root
