Readline command error

Try -ltermcap (works for me, although -lncurses works as well)

Wonderful!!!!! It works....

I will not say that you have many children or you should earn more money as I say in one of the post but I can definately tell that if anyone have any problems (not personal) please contact the only GURU of qtcenter and that is WYSOTA....

Thanks a lot.

I don't consider myself a guru despite the title under my nickname and there are surely people as fit for answering questions as I am, but thank you anyway

Especially that I answered your question based on the manual page for tputs and trial and error.

Yes I know Jacek too is my favourite...He too is awesome!!!!!

Anyway, I'm encountering another problem with readline(cost char*). It displays the correct text whatever I type but what if I want to see the text inform of '*'...ie the user enters text and but sees only '*'. Same as we prompt for password.

Example--:
Enter password: ***** The actual '*' value is 'hello'...

Will readline provide that functionality...If not what is the alternate means to do that. I know ncursers is another option but I dont know how to use it.

Waiting eagerly

It probably will but you probably have to use some additional/different functions to obtain this. I suggest you consult the readline manual.

BTW. On Unix: man 3 getpass
