I wouldn't say your implementation left _a lot_ to be desired, but I found it to be somewhat uninformative on the available options, which is why I tried this route instead. > About using the menu, panel and maybe even the form library: Yes, it > might make sense but then again I had also hoped to maybe at some > point try to get tig running on just the terminfo interface.

I was pretty sure resizing would bomb it, but I hadn't thought about background loading at all, I'll see if I can think about it a little. > tig.c: In function 'menu_select': > tig.c:6629: warning: unused variable 'width' > tig.c:6628: warning: unused variable 'win' Oops, leftovers, I'll clean them up. -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
