For future reference and the benefit of anyone who finds this post in google, the problem appears to be a version issue with ncurses. My screen was compiled against libncurses.so.5.5, and using LD_PRELOAD to execute it with .5.4 instead makes the problem go away. -- Aaron Davies aaron.dav...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list screen-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
