Hi. I am going to need to allow large dialogs in my ncurses application (gaim-text). So I am trying to use pads. However, as it turns out, I cannot create a panel with a pad in it. So I am using the following hack, which seems to work quite alright:
Most of the operations, like refreshing, printing text, moving etc. seems to work pretty well. When it comes to resizing, I do wresize on 'pad', recreate 'win' and 'panel' as above. But it causes the window to disappear from the screen, and never reappear again. Is there some magic I can do to make it work? Or is there a better way of doing what I am trying to do?
