>From the slink cd i installed the python module python-curses 1.5.1-7 >From www.python.org/doc/howto/curses/curses.html (by Andrew Kuchling) I understand that this is the original curses module, and that there exists a much improved one, to be found at andrich.net/python/selfmade.html#ncursesmodule But that file, and all the other ones there, is rpm not deb. I cannot find anything like it in unstable main contrib non-free. So there seems not to be a new curses for debian. Is that true ?
Also, in The Python Library Reference (www.python.org/doc/lib) I cannot find the function newpad(), mentioned buy Andrew Kuchlin. Nothing about colors either. So I really think this is the old curses module. What is my mistake ? How do I go on ? egbert -- Egbert Bouwman - Keizersgracht 197 II - 1016 DS Amsterdam - 020 6257991 ========================================================================
