I think that's just a poorly delimited signature. FWIW, the comments in main.c:quit() seem to indicate that the terminal should be reset to a sane state on ^C (which calls quit()): /* * Put cursor at bottom left corner, clear the line, * reset the terminal modes, and exit. */ If it's not doing that, I'm sure no one will complain if you submit a patch (or at least a reasonably detailed PR describing the circumstances under which you see this behaviour). -- Brian Cully They Might Be Giant's Dial-a-Song service: (718) 387-6962. ``Free when you call from work!''
