Subject: Re: ncurses interface change (was: silly question)

This is apparently a change in version 0.8 of the ncurses binding.

I don't know how much this will help in terms of not changing your
program, but I got this code snippet from Tobias Peters (the author of
the ncurses binding for Ruby.  You would insert this wherever you
include Ncurses:

# include constants                                                             
include Ncurses

# include methods as toplevel methods                                           
alias pre_ncurses_method_missing method_missing
def method_missing(name, *args)
  if Ncurses.respond_to?(name)
    Ncurses.send(name, *args)
  else
    pre_ncurses_method_missing(name, *args)
  end
end

Regards,
Henry
