While we're talking about paths, I also don't set a custom terminfo path, because I'm not deploying the lib to my Kindle, I'm just using it to link stuff against it. So, to fix the crappy terminfo db available on the Kindle, I ship one with usbnetwork, and hardcode the TERMINFO env var to point to it in the apps I care about (htop). |
Depressingly, This is on the edge of my skills range as things stand.
I can grasp the overall but when things go wrong I am somewhat at a loss right now. Thanks for the pointers. Coming from a much closeted world of .Net development is all feels a bit spaghetti junction right now, but doubtless it will come clear in the fullness of time.
I fully intend to rebuild the underlying libraries before I actually build lynx for real, however until Lynx even finds those libraries (mangled or otherwise) that is issue number 2 on the list
Iĺl give the tweak I found above a go and see if this resolves my issue with Lynx, perhaps it is app specific, then revisit my ncurses implementation. thanks mate.
