#5085 — determine if ncurses is active

Is there a function you can call to determine whether ncurses is between 
ncurses_init() and ncurses_end() without getting an error message?

I'm using ncurses_baudrate() which returns false if uninitialized and 
ncurses_isendwin() to determine if ncurses_end() is done and that gives 
a correct answer as far as I can tell but ncurses_baudrate() issues a 
warning that it hasn't been initialized.

That depends on the library you're using and where you got it.  Have you 
done a google search on the ncurses library?  Can you find a copy of the 
source and paw through it?  My guess is that's the only way you'll find 
the answer.

Can't you keep track of whether you've initialized your ncurses lib or not?

Yes, I switched over to doing that because of the messages.  It's kind 
of sad to have to, but that's how it goes.  Thanks J.
