Re: [sup-talk] curses exception

[Dan Falcone <danfalcone@gmail.com>]

Normally I use puttycyg (http://code.google.com/p/puttycyg/), but I gave rxvt and even the normal cmd.exe window a try.  Same error in all three.  I also tried modifying NUM_COLORS to 15 (and other values... 1, 8, 16, 32) but got the same error every time in each terminal emulator.  

Honestly, it's probably an issue with my setup... is there a guide anywhere on how to get sup running in cygwin?  Maybe I'm missing a required package?

Thanks!
Dan

Weird. We've had other people get it working on Cygwin before, I
believe. Are you running this within Cygwin's rxvt?

What if you modify lib/sup/colormap.rb so that NUM_COLORS=15?
