>Description:
when having ee running in an xterm and opening another xterm window ee exits. if running ee in gdb it says: "Program exited normally".
i talked to Paul B. Mahol (onemda at gmail dot com) over at freebsd-questions@ and he believes this to be a bug in ee. this is his analysis of the problem:
"Problems is that ee doesnt handle SIGWINCH properly.
ee on FreeBSD is linked with ncurses but new_curse.c from contrib/ee is
only file that mentions SIGWINCH and that file is not part of
usr.bin/ee/Makefile"
i'm running:
xorg-7.4.2
x11-wm/awesome
cheers.
>How-To-Repeat:
