1*84d9c625SLionel SambucThere are some known problems with Solaris curses.
2*84d9c625SLionel SambucPlease give ncurses a try when you encounter a screen output problem.
3*84d9c625SLionel Sambuc
4*84d9c625SLionel SambucApparently, the more recent Solaris compilers invoke the incremental linker,
5*84d9c625SLionel Sambuc`ild', when the "-g" option is used and one or more "xxx.o" files are
6*84d9c625SLionel Sambucspecified on the command line during the link phase.  Unfortunately, the
7*84d9c625SLionel Sambucexecutable produced is up to 3-4 times as big as an executable generated
8*84d9c625SLionel Sambucby the standard linker `ld'.
9*84d9c625SLionel SambucYou can bypass this by adding "-xildoff" to LDFLAGS or by
10*84d9c625SLionel Sambucsetting CFLAGS (to something that does not contain "-g").
