I though I had a grasp on how the compiler/linker worked with static or dynamic bindings, but maybe I'm missing something.. (2 hrs. later) Just checked - CursesW is in libg++.a, but not libg++.so. I tries static with worse errors: it's not linking in curses. And I thought all I'd need is an O'reily book! Thanks for your help -John
