Is there a way to add a mode to curses? The Berkeley curses does not (unless there's something new), but the System V (R2 and on, at least) have been enhanced in several ways, including multiple-terminal (simultaneously from a program) support and enhanced attribute control. In the Sun manuals, see man page for curses under the System V libraries, or, in the _Programming Utilities and Libraries_ manual, chapter 13 (System V curses and terminfo), and checkout the attron(), atroff(), and attrset() calls. -Miles O'Neal (gatech!stiatl!meo)
