Hi Michael,
* Did you consider using netbsd-curses[1] instead of ncurses?
This probably won't work as is, because libtermkey as required by
vis depends on the ncurses terminfo library. It might be worth
investigating how much work it would be to either port libtermkey
or provide the necessary terminfo symbols in netbsd-curses.
I have not. I actually was originally very hesitant to include any
curses library at all, since it seems to me like the wrong layer to
implement a graphical UI (instead going the route of acme + 9term).
If you find a way to use netbsd-curses (or maybe no curses at all; I
saw you added a vt100 UI to vis), I'd be interested.
Hi,

I was able to compile vis + netbsd-curses! :) I described the problems here:

https://www.openwall.com/lists/sabotage/2018/11/23/1

Syntax highlighting etc. everything works. However, when I use ':e *',
I have to call 'reset' after closing the editor. vis some_file && :wq
etc. work correctly. Only ':e *' causes problems (so far).

Does anyone have an idea of how this problem can be solved?

Best regards,
Daniel
