Subject: [RFC] kconfig/mconf.c: revision of curses initialization.

Hello,

I noticed that in mconf, initscr() is called twice -- as far as I found
out since commit d0e1e09568.

In case you see a need to fix that:

I first thought about simply removing the call in init_dialog() in
util.c but then had the feeling that saving of initial cursor positions
also perhaps is better done in that function...

Dirk

Subject: [PATCH] kconfig/mconf.c: revision of curses initialization.

Since commit d0e1e09568 initscr() is called twice in mconf.

Do it only in init_dialog() in util.c and there also save the
cursor position for the signal handler in mconf.c.
