Subject: ncurses interface change (was: silly question)

Hi all,

Did the ncurses lib's interface was changed from 1.6.8 to 1.8.x? In the
1.6.8 version, all Ncurses ("global") functions or constants were
accessible after mixing Ncurses, so I could write something like:

class XXX
  include Ncurses
  def yyy
    # ...
    doupdate
    # ...
  end
  # ...
end

In the 1.8.x, it only works like this:

......
    Ncurses.doupdate # instead of simply doupdate
......

This is what I wanted to explain in my previous thread, that I want to
access singleton methods from another module _without modifying the
Ncurses module definition_.

Can I do something to not to go through my program and fix it in several
dozen places?

I was on holiday, that's why I respond with a few weeks delay.

Thanks:
Ferenc
