I asked on the ncurses-bugs mailing list about this problem, and got an
immediate and helpful reply from the ncurses maintainer (Thomas Dickey).
It turns out that this *is* a Mac-specific problem: in Snow Leopard the
Apple-supplied ncurses.h defines NCURSES_OPAQUE to 1 (if it isn't already
defined) by default, while a standard ncurses install defines
NCURSES_OPAQUE to be 0 by default. Furthermore, Thomas Dickey has said
that he'll add an is_pad function for later use, so if the WINDOW flags do
disappear or move in a future version of ncurses then there should be an
easy workaround available at that time.
So just #defining NCURSES_OPAQUE to 0 for OS X >= 10.6 seems a reasonable
way to fix this for now. |
