Did you ever find a solution? >=20 I dunno if my problem is the same as yours, but it may not be just mc. screen has been crapping out on me lately, and also randomly, like described above, when I use some of the shell scripts that I wrote. It only happens with interactive scripts that display a menu using 'dev-util/dialog'. Most of the time it works, sometimes it doesn't: after the previous dialog clears the screen, screen just sits there blinking and not loading the next one.=20 I'd be interested in a solution too, if there is one.
