Please follow fork's advice and run configure --help. There must be a termcap related option there. Please post it here. What is happening is that emacs is using its own version of the termcap library that comes with the emacs source. You must disable that _and_ link with ncurses instead. Is there a --without-termcap option to configure? -- Ian Zimmerman gpg public key: 1024D/C6FF61AD fingerprint: 66DC D68F 5C1B 4D71 2EE5 BD03 8A00 786C C6FF 61AD Rule 420: All persons more than eight miles high to leave the court.
