Annotation of researchv10no/ncurses/screen/README.delwin, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       root        1: Symtoms:
                      2: 
                      3: Programs that use curses can grow when windows are added (addwin) but
                      4: not free up all the space when the windows are deleted (delwin).
                      5: 
                      6: Cause:
                      7: 
                      8: Looking at the code, addwin() allocates some space. If the allocation
                      9: fails, it frees up some data structures. The delwin() function does
                     10: something similar but does not do a complete job. The additional lines
                     11: have been added.
                     12: 
                     13: Installation:
                     14: 
                     15: This file should be installed in /usr/src/lib/libcurses/screen/delwin.c .
                     16: After that, the curses library needs to be remade, then all affected
                     17: application programs need to be recompiled.
