No time right now, but I'm going to bet that's exactly what's happened,
I'd naively do exactly as you suggest. I've only just started playing
with AAs. It's begging for trouble that I have " zcurses addwin main "
and many similar. And: " main[window]=main ". But this goes back to
Sebastian's original code. I've been meaning to do something about it
for a long time.
