>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2.7-RELEASE i386
>Environment:

	LANG=de_DE.ISO8859-1
	XFree86 3.3.2
	The same error also occurs with 2.2.6

>Description:

	ee segfaults if the window is resized.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Run ee in a xterm window. Resize the window by one row. Hit
	cursor up --- ee quits with a segmentation fault.

>Fix:
	
	From a quick look with gdb, it seems that ncurses only set
	`LINES' and `COLUMNS' on a resize, but not `lines' and
	`columns'. I tried to fix this problem, but then there was
	a segfault in another line. So I leave it to you curses
	experts. Maybe there is a newer ncurses version with this bug
	fixed?
