1. exu anomalies

Trouble in Paradise!

I think it all began when I upgraded to the latest version of ncurses.
Yet, along the same time I foolishly ignored some dependancy warning
while installing a KDE package. I can no longer run KDE. I can run
most KDE apps on Fluxbox, FVWM.

Regarding Euphoria...

I get all sorts of trash on the screen when running certain programs
with exu - notably ed.ex.  This causes me to think the problem
might be an ncurses issues... but, if I compile ed.ex - runs
perfectly.

I decided to try "export TERM=ansi" - no joy. Here is a copy
of my .profile:


PATH=/home/ken/euphoria/bin:$PATH
EUDIR=/home/ken/euphoria
EUINC=/home/ken/euphoria/include/:/home/ken/euprogs/wxeu-linux-0-9-0/wxEuphoria
TERM=ansi
export PATH EUDIR EUINC TERM

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Kenneth:
  I don't know what you mean by "compile ed.ex" but difference
  could be compiling uses a static library and none compiled
  uses a shared library.

Thanks, Bernie...  I meant when I run a c-translated/compiled binary
of the "ed.ex" source code. 

Hmmmm wonder if the problem will go away if the next version of Euphoria
uses the latest version of ncurses. 

I guess I'll make do for a couple of months...  SuSE 10.1 should be
out about the time as Euphoria 3.0.

  Shouldn't that colon there be a semi colon?

Don't think so - from the docs:
 EUINC should be a list of
        directories, separated by semicolons (colons on Linux)

but thanks,
